un satisfactory

we arrived as planned and upon arrival there was a power outage . we were told that it was city wide although traffic lights were still functioning and the event that we were attending had power as well . we waited for a good while and decided to look else where . we found a place about less than 1/4 mile it had vacancies and power as well so we booked a room. i feel that the hotel was not up front with us . therefore was disapointed by the way they handled the situation .

Quick weekend getaway

Overall experience was very good. The restaurant isn't great, but adequate food is available. I would recommend going elsewhere for food though. The rooms were clean, quiet and comfortable.

Walk to the San Antonio Riverwalk. Take the bus back as there are many places to see, things to do and shopping abounds.

Holiday Inn Market Square Visit

The location was great - it easy access off I-35. I was late getting there for a trade show but I wanted to check in before I went to the convention center. The staff took care of me quickly and then provided a shuttle to the convention center right away. The shuttle driver was friendly and courteous and picked me up at the show when it was finished. I had a late supper in the lounge before retiring. The waitress was super courteous. I would recommend this hotel to travelers, whether for business or pleasure.

Very pleasant facility only a mile from historic downtown

I thought the price was very affordable for a nicely-appointed hotel not far from the historic downtown area. My room was clean and the decor was definitely better than basic. Coffee-maker, iron and ironing board and hair-dryer all provided. I liked the mile walk across town so that I could see the city and drop by the cathedral on the main square.

Great location for a great price

Staff was nice and the room was clean. For the price I paid, it was an easy walk to the Riverwalk and had free parking. The location was also nice because it was close to everything but was in a quieter location.

Satisfied for price range

I was in town for three nights for a conference off the river walk but couldn't afford the prices in that area. This turned out to be a great alternative. The trolley stop across the street delivered me straight to the river walk within ten minutes, and the hotel also offers free shuttle van service within 5 miles. The driver was ready as soon as I requested a ride and was incredibly friendly. The front desk staff was equally attentive and friendly. Sure, the elevators could use a facelift, the televisions are old (i.e., not flat screen - at least in my room), the carpet might need an update sometime soon. But overall, I found it to be clean, quiet (never heard anything from neighbors on either side), close enough to the main stretch near the Alamo and considerably cheaper. A better restaurant would be a plus, especially for those without a car, but trolleys run late to the main areas and Pizza Hut is a three-minute walk down the road.
