Top San Antonio Hotel Reviews

Drury Plaza Hotel San Antonio Riverwalk

10/10 Excellent

"Location"

Hyatt Vacation Club at Wild Oak Ranch, San Antonio

8/10 Good

"We stayed at Wild Oak Ranch for four days in late October whilst visiting rour son at Trinity University about 25 mins away. It was a nice change from a standard hotel. The villa was excellent, very clean, well equipped and the washer & tumble dryer were useful. Nice spa bath and big bathroom. We used the pool, lazy river, gym and played pickle ball, all great and never too busy. We didn’t use the fire pits or bbqs, but seemed like a nice touch. Perhaps the only disappointing thing was the bar/restaurant. It would have been nice to have a more relaxing f&b offering, more in keeping with the lobby feel. It was great for a short stay and as it wasn’t the main focus of our vacation we really enjoyed our visit."

Hotel Gibbs Downtown Riverwalk

10/10 Excellent

"I loved this hotel! Stayed for work conference. The front desk person was so sweet and gave me bandaids for my poor blistered feet. She was friendly and went above and beyond for me. I know that sounds simple but it means a lot especially for someone who travels often for work. I did like the daily housekeeping. Area by the bed could have been cleaner - I found two used fake fingernails which threw in the trash. I get that places are short staffed now days though. Would definitely stay again. Location was also quite convenient."

Days Inn by Wyndham San Antonio Alamo/Riverwalk

8/10 Good

"Cleanliness, great location, helpful staff, wonderful comfy bed. Great AC. Breakfast was mostly bread products. Coffee, corn flakes and fruit loops. No protein, no eggs or breakfasts meats. except yogurt. No fruit. Sunny D flavored orange drink. Having a protein selection would have been great. We really enjoyed our stay! We felt safe."

Riverwalk Plaza

10/10 Excellent

"The room was great. Cleanliness was amazing except for the bath tub. Bath tub needed some work, also the shampoo kept falling off the wall. The adhesive on the shampoo, conditioner and body washed needs to be changed or replaced because it kept falling down. Other than that every else was great. Staff was very attentive and nice. I enjoyed it"
