Menger Hotel

The location is very good, within walking distance to the shopping center, restaurants, riverwalk and of course the Alamo. This is an historic hotel so don't expect large rooms, but the room that I stayed in was very comfortable, I did not lack anything.

The hotel is adjacent to Alamo Plaza and close to the River Walk in the heart of San Antonio, so there is no better location. This is a classic old hotel, beautifully maintained, and the suite we had was lovely. The staff is friendly and very helpful. The bed was very comfortable and the HVAC was able to keep the room at a very comfortable temperature even when the heat soared. The lobby and public rooms are beautiful, and there's a lovely garden. We didn't use it, but the pool is large and well equipped.

This hotel has always been on my dream list of places to stay. So when the price was right, I booked a room and was so glad I did. I loved that I could feel like I was walking back in time when staying at the hotel. My favorite places were the original entry, where you can see the 3 indoor balconies of the rooms upstairs. The wallpaper is gorgeous. The room we stayed in was exceptional as well. My goal for this trip was to experience everything the hotel had to offer and to feel like I was back in time for my trip, and I did exactly that. We ate a great hamburger and fries at the Bar, and we dined for Breakfast the next morning.

The staff are all amazingly nice and incredibly helpful. The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful. It is HISTORIC so if you want to stay at a completely modernized location, then this isn't for you. The location is perfect and in walking distance to just about everything. The hotel has food options, but there are just so many great places you'll find it hard to decide. We love the pool area and the bar. (also comes with rich history) Make sure you take the time to see all this historic nuggets that the hotel and surrounding area have to provide. The rooms are quaint, clean and comfortable. The showers have great hot water and pressure. And again, the entire staff is amazing.

The historic feeling of the hotel tied with a beautiful architecture was absolutely amazing. I personally enjoyed that walking outside of the front of the hotel , you are immediately met with a beautiful park, shops, mall entrance , and the Alamo. Everything was right at our fingertips. Of course my children loved the pool area and the garden.
