Top Ripley's Believe It or Not! Hotel Reviews

Drury Plaza Hotel San Antonio Riverwalk

10/10 Excellent

"I rarely leave reviews but I think this hotel is worth leaving one. The hotel is very nice, located on a great location that gives you easy access to the River walk. They have breakfast included and snack time in the evening. The outdoor pool has a beautiful view to the city. Valet parking is worth the price as they also allow you stay a couple hours extra after check out. Staff is nice as well. Just overall a great experience."

Hotel Gibbs Downtown Riverwalk

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our stay here. Room was very nice. Clean and very unique. Would definitely stay here again. Close to Riverwalk and Alamo. Breakfast was great had a lot of options. Staff were very helpful. Parking was a breeze with the valet. Our vehicle took no time to get to us when we asked for it."

Hotel 1914 - Historic Alamo Riverwalk, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed here on Saturday night, and I absolutely loved it! The hotel has such a fresh, clean, eclectic vibe while still embracing its old-school charm. The entryway is beautifully decorated with vintage-inspired décor that gives the place so much character. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and I appreciated the thoughtful snack selection they offered. My room was spotless, the bed was exceptionally clean and comfortable, and everything felt well cared for. If you’re looking for a unique boutique hotel with charm, cleanliness, and wonderful hospitality, I highly recommend the 1914 Hotel. I’ll definitely stay here again!"
