The front desk staff were not very helpful. The outside valet people were more friendly and welcoming then front desk. Also when i got there, i had to have someone fix my door, kept getting locked in my room. My toilet didnt flush well. Funky smell also after flushing. Housekeeper called handyman for me because also an electrical outlet was not secured in the wall and it was dangerous.

Overpriced for what seemed like an average Hotel. Rooms need maintained. Multiple rooms we booked needed some kind maintenance done from having the hot water adjusted( one room had absolutely not hot water), batteries in doors, and having light fixtures put back into place. Staff was amazing though they were on very fast . The bar/restaurant was a good experience as well.Overall could some some renovations in the rooms and get back on theme that the hotel was based around.

My wife and I had a great stay at the Hotel Contessa. Staff was friendly and accommodating. The location on the river walk was idesl and walking distance to Alamo and other attractions. The rooftop pool was great. The Ambler restaurant & bar was excellent with a relaxing atmosphere. We’ll definitely stay here again.

Our room was very large and clean. Valet parking was easy cost $ but worth it. They took our belongings up to our room. Entire staff helpful. The pool on the roof was nice, drinks were available and towels were supplied. The gym is 24 hours and there was an onsite spa. The back of the hotel is actually on the riverwalk, which was great. The location isn’t on the busiest spot on riverwalk which we appreciated greatly as some areas on riverwalk have way too many people. Plan on returning.
