Check in was difficult, no one answered the phone for over 20 minutes and the place itself was “meh” not worth the cost. Also, it’s in the middle of nowhere.

We liked the history of San Antonio. Was able to hire a car because the apartment had parking, so we travelled out of the city to see more of the surrounding areas

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

I would recommend San Antonio to everyone as it's delightful place, almost a Venice in Texas.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Really enjoyed San Antonio. If you get a downtown hotel you can walk to the Alamo and the river walk area which is nice not having to take the car. The Alamo is an excellent (and free!) thing to see and the riverwalk has lots of dining options.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

A beautiful town! Well worth a visit. The river walk is stunning

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

I thought it was amazing, it has so much to offer. If you do the bus tour make sure you choose the option that has the places you want to visit included. The bar in the Menger Hotel is worth a visit. They do bar meals.

Will definitely be visiting again very soon 
