Pros

Floor-to-ceiling windows showcase River Walk views

Three-story atrium provides ambient natural light

Direct access to the new Museum Reach section of the River Walk

Multiple restaurants within 0.3 miles walking distance

Cons

12.5 miles distance from San Antonio International Airport

Limited kitchen facilities in suites (microwave and small fridge only)

“The spacious suites, each designed with separate living areas, stand out, especially given the prime Riverwalk location. I noted the complimentary breakfast and evening social hour could be a real value for families or anyone watching travel costs. Its proximity to the Alamo and other downtown attractions makes it easy to explore San Antonio's historic heart.”

I had mixed feelings about my stay at the hotel. The location was fantastic, right by the Riverwalk, making it easy to explore. However, the dining experience left a lot to be desired, especially the breakfast service, which was chaotic with limited offerings. The room was clean but could use some updates. Overall, I left feeling that while it had great potential, there were several areas that needed improvement.
