San Antonio is famous for the Alamo, but these days, visitors head to the lively Riverwalk area for charming restaurants and a rich sense of history. Stay near Riverwalk so you can walk along the waterfront and watch the barges float by. Here are five fun San Antonio Hotels for vacationers:
Omni La Mansion del Rio: Walk from this highly rated hotel to the Alamo, El Mercado, La Villita District and all of the attractions along Riverwalk. Don’t leave without making reservations at Las Canarias for a taste of local game meats and indigenous spices.
Hotel Indigo San Antonio: This historical boutique hotel is known as a quiet retreat for guests who still want to stay close to the main tourist attractions in San Antonio. Room interiors are plain but stately, giving the entire property a calm, relaxing atmosphere.
Westin Riverwalk: This favorite among San Antonio hotels has local charm and all the luxurious amenities associated with the upscale Westin brand, including spacious bathrooms and soaking tubs. Relax from a day of walking on the signature Heavenly Bed®.
Hyatt Regency San Antonio Riverwalk: Located across the street from the Alamo, the Hyatt Regency is a pretty standard Hyatt property. But this means you have access to the great service and quality expected from the brand. Walk nearby for a riverboat cruise.
O Brien Historic Riverwalk: Looking for a boutique property? The O Brien has 39 rooms, free wireless internet and a quaint atmosphere. Just a block away from Riverwalk, it’s a great place to stay if you want to get swept up by the historic energy of San Antonio.
