Top Ripley's Believe It or Not! Hotel Reviews

Canopy by Hilton San Antonio Riverwalk

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay"

Riverwalk Plaza

4/10 Poor

"The hotel lobby is cute and quaint. Once you leave lobby the vibe is very different. The reality of a very dirty hotel becomes evident as you wait by elevator doors which were extremely dirty. The doors to each room were extremely dirty and marked up. Our bathroom was dirty. The furniture has an inch of dust. The ac not working properly. A ceiling tile fell and woke us up as it sounded like a loud crash. Floors extremely dirty. "

Drury Plaza Hotel San Antonio Riverwalk

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is beautiful and located right on the Riverwalk. While Valet is pricey, you can come and go. The two queen corner room was HUGE. Though, my highest compliments to the staff. Every staff member I encountered was kind, professional and very put together. We thoroughly enjoyed our mini spring break getaway. "
