Love the historical nature of the property. Staff is friendly. Carpets could be updated.
Was not satisfied with the cost/value and tried to cancel the second night but was told no cancellations. It was in our agreement which I understand, but moving forward, I will never do a “no cancellation if pre-paid again”.
We want to thank the staff for their friendliness and for letting us have the room a little early. The day was hot and we needed to cool off. We loved the room with the balcony. My husband and I spent a lot of time there. Thank you!
Friendly, helpful happy staff rooms are very clean. Had california king bed was comfortable. Slept well. This is really a vintage hotel with some modern up grades. Pool area beautiful. Bar or pub is a good place to unwind from the site seeing. The dining is great. The gift shops have very interesting items.
Iconic old hotel, and warm and friendly staff. One of the most Iconic hotels west of the Mississippi. Full of history, SUper convienient to the River Walk, and even comes with a few Shosts.
It's a great hotel next to the Alamo and a 5-minute walk to the Riverwalk. Staff was friendly, helpful and welcoming. My only suggestion to replace the plugs located on the lamps 🔌 would not hold. Had to use wall sockets. Otherwise a wonderful stay!
Beautiful, historic hotel. I picked this hotel based on reviews and the photos. I loved the uniqueness of the building. After I booked I began to read about all of the history involved and enjoyed that as well. My room could have been cleaner but I just went with it because it is an old building. I highly recommend it for the walking aspect, you are located next door to the alamo and a short walk to the riverwalk and mall.
