Best Western Plus Downtown North

10/10 Excellent

"They clean the room without asking if we wanted"

Omni La Mansion del Rio

10/10 Excellent

"We loved this hotel. It is very conveniently located on the Riverwalk with lots of dining options nearby. We had breakfast at the hotel one morning and at the sister hotel across the river one morning, but were great. The property is clean, beautiful and well maintained. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again if we return to San Antonio."

Poolside 6 bedroom historic retreat - near downtown

10/10 Excellent

"The check-in and check-out processes were easy. Brent responded quickly to messages I sent during our stay. The bedrooms were as advertised, there were plenty of pillows and towels, and the kitchen was fully stocked with supplies. The location was close to everything we wanted to do: the Alamo, the zoo, the Pearl area. It was within walking distance to great food, as well. IThere was some dust buildup and random trash under the vanity in our bathroom; most people probably wouldn't notice, but our young kids find everything. The trash / recycling situation was slightly confusing, but we made it work. Thanks for a great stay - we'll be back!"
