Built more than 100 years ago, renovated hotel is just steps from Alamo
The Crockett Hotel provides the best of both worlds: classic old-school charm with brand-new furniture and amenities. The hotel was built on the site where Davy Crockett and his settlers defended the southeast palisade of the Alamo during a 13-day siege in 1836. The Alamo is just steps away and guests walk to the nearby Alamodome or Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center. The outdoor pool is surrounded with gorgeous landscaping. Guests indulge in a daily complimentary breakfast bar. High-speed wireless Internet is free.Highlights
- More than 100 years of history and newly renovated in 2007
- A mere 18 steps to the Alamo
- Within walking distance of many San Antonio attractions
- Complimentary deluxe breakfast bar served daily
- Free high-speed wireless Internet

The Crockett Hotel was first built in 1909, and then added onto in 1927, there are varying floor plans, room styles and suites among the 138 guest rooms. All have been renovated in 2007 and decorated in shades of sage green and cool cream. Regardless of room type, all guests enjoy free high-speed Wi-Fi, Gilchrist and Soames bath amenities, in-room movies and video games, and room service from 11 a.m to 2 a.m.
Features

Great Location
This was a comfortable hotel for the two of us. Our room was not large but certainly adequate since we were sightseeing most of the time. We were just steps from the Alamo. This enabled us to plan to visit the Alamo after the school children on class trips were gone. I especially liked that the air conditioning was just right - not freezing! The staff was friendly and helpful. The complimentary breakfast was more than bagels and cereal. You could make your own waffle (in the shape of the map of Texas), or have scrambled eggs, bread, fruit, yogurt, a selection of beverages: juices, milk, coffee, tea, breakfast cake.

Great Hotel!!!
Came for Graduation at Lackland AF base. We wanted a nice hotel. We got the hotel,car, and plane ticket for the same price as one of those 1 or 2 star hotels. For the staff and service, it was worth the drive to the base from the hotel. Very convenient to downtown, since we were also there during the fiesta.

perfect location
I can't believe that I chose this hotel over the internet! It was wonderful! It was the perfect location--literally across the street from the Alamo. The rooms were small, but nice. Everything was spotless---the cleanest hotel that I have ever seen. Had a nice continental breakfast with variety. I was so lucky to have chosen this hotel, and I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

Escape from Fiesta
We enjoyed this hotel. We arrived in the middle of the Fiesta which was not part of our plan. We were able to leave the car in the parking lot and walk around the city and try to avoid the crowds. Not everyone's taste, probably, but if you did want to be part of Fiesta, the Crockett would be a wonderful location. We got an internal room but it was light and airy and very pleasant. We got next to the elevator with its bell chiming every ten seconds for most of the night and with the fan of the air conditioner on, we slept through it all. The staff was cordial and helpful and the complimentary hot breakfast was excellent. I'd stay here again,especially if it wasn't Fiesta time.

Lived up to Expectations
We spent 6 nights/7 days at the Crockett Hotel. The location is outstanding-walking distance to everything in the downtown area. Cleaning service times vary daily between 9am-3pm, that being the only complaint, the hotel stay was one of our best.

Great hotel, great deal!!!!!
This hotel was small yet perfect for me and my husband. We took a mini honeymoon trip and this hotel made the trip perfect. The mall was across the street where you could get to the riverwalk and IMAX easily!!! The alamo was also directly across the street. We could see inside it from our room. Wax museum and ripleys was one block away, not far at all. Just an enjoyable experience!!!! A+++++.
