Sonesta ES Suites San Antonio Downtown Alamo Plaza
Hotel was updated however you can tell the bathtub and toilets are old. They were stained and tarnished. The beds were horrible; especially the sofa bed. Also, there aren’t many options for the breakfast.

Riverwalk Plaza
The dining staff were amazing but the front desk & coffee staff not so much…the elevator kept breaking and we took the stairs our entire stay. The location was great - the price was affordable

Hyatt Vacation Club at Wild Oak Ranch, San Antonio
Great resort! We loved the pool area, and the heated pool and lazy river were actually warm, which felt amazing during our chilly spring break. Perfect for a Texas spring break when the weather isn’t hot yet.

Menger Hotel
Parking is only valet and it’s cheaper to park in the mall parking lot by about $10. Either way, overnight is outrageous at $40-50
