Top Arneson River Theatre Hotel Reviews

Hotel Gibbs Downtown Riverwalk

8/10 Good

"Beautiful property and fantastic, spacious room! Staff was friendly and check in was super easy! Down side: Parking was crazy expensive - 54 bucks for 12 hours at the lot next door. There's a lot of construction outside/road closed so GPS doesn't get you there- we just had to figure it out, but the noise didn't disrupt our stay at all. Super cool location - the Alamo is across the street and the Riverwalk is just a few blocks."
