Top San Antonio Zoo and Aquarium Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham San Antonio Riverwalk

10/10 Excellent

"My stay was amazing"

Riverwalk Plaza

8/10 Good

"The location was conveniently located with the Riverwalk close by and major attractions were within walking distance. The staff was very friendly and helpful. the valet parking was a little confusing at first. Our room was clean and air conditioner worked well. Problems were obvious in bathroom. Tub spigot ran constantly at a slight stream and the toilet rocked when you sat on it. All in all I would probably stay there if I am in the city again. Price was right."

Omni La Mansion del Rio

10/10 Excellent

"We loved this hotel. It is very conveniently located on the Riverwalk with lots of dining options nearby. We had breakfast at the hotel one morning and at the sister hotel across the river one morning, but were great. The property is clean, beautiful and well maintained. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again if we return to San Antonio."

Hotel Gibbs Downtown Riverwalk

10/10 Excellent

"I loved this hotel! Stayed for work conference. The front desk person was so sweet and gave me bandaids for my poor blistered feet. She was friendly and went above and beyond for me. I know that sounds simple but it means a lot especially for someone who travels often for work. I did like the daily housekeeping. Area by the bed could have been cleaner - I found two used fake fingernails which threw in the trash. I get that places are short staffed now days though. Would definitely stay again. Location was also quite convenient."
