Riverwalk Plaza
The staff was very helpful, both at the check-in desk and the restaurant/bar. It was very convenient to many of the sites that we chose to visit. We only had to order transportation once. The rooms could benefit from a few updates, but it was still overall comfortable and clean.

Sonesta ES Suites San Antonio Downtown Alamo Plaza
Clean room. Good breakfast. Valet parking is only available if you have a car, and the rate is a bit high. We used the parking meter instead.

Clean room, excellent staff, great location! Every employee we interacted with was cheerful and eager to remind us of all of the amenities available. This trip was a birthday gift to my wife, and the hotel staff really helped make our trip seem special. We had a great time!
