Top Ripley's Believe It or Not! Hotel Reviews

Drury Plaza Hotel San Antonio Riverwalk

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the location and hotel reception and breakfast"

Hilton Palacio Del Rio

10/10 Excellent

"Best place to stay on the riverwalk. The hotel is in the middle of the riverwalk and easy access to restaurants. The riverwalk boat tour is a 2 min walk. The breakfast buffet is amazing. Staff makes an omelette your way, endless bacon & sausage, fruit, and the view of the riverwalk if you eat outside. An absolute amazing place to stay and the only place I will stay when visiting San Antonio"

Hotel Contessa

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is beautiful, the location of the hotel in proximity to the riverwalk is perfect! The staff are friendly and helpful, and the rooms are comfortable. As a family, we love that every single room has a bedroom separate from the living room because we can put our toddler down for the night, and he and I can order drinks from the bar downstairs, and watch TV without disturbing. Allows us to have some time to ourselves. We love this place."
