Dating back to 1909 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, The Gunter Hotel San Antonio Riverwalk stands 0.5 miles from the Alamo. This 4-star San Antonio hotel features bright, classically-decorated rooms with high ceilings, flat-screen TVs, and bathrooms with natural light through windows.

The property maintains a fitness center with cardio equipment and weight machines, plus an outdoor swimming pool. Business travelers have access to a full-service business center with high-speed internet. The Gunter Hotel preserves a 1920s-style barber shop among its historic features. Located across from River Walk, the hotel sits within 0.5 miles of La Villita Historic Arts Village and Historic Market Square, with San Antonio International Airport 12.5 miles away.
Pros
Preservation of historic features including an authentic 1920s barber shop
Bar 414 pays tribute to blues legend Robert Johnson's recording location
High ceilings in guest rooms create spacious atmosphere
Natural light through bathroom windows
Cons
Elevator capacity restricted to 2 guests or one family per cab

“The Gunter Hotel's historic charm, dating back to 1909, is a real draw, especially with its River Walk location. I appreciate that its updated amenities, like the speakeasy bar and focus on local cuisine, nod to both past and present. However, reports of inconsistent room upkeep give me pause, suggesting a need for sharper attention to detail.”
