Rooms were spacious, bed were comfortable and the location is centrally located near bar, restaurant and shops.
Hotel is in a quiet part of the RiverWalk area if you want peace and tranquility. Long walking distance to other hotels and eateries.
This was an excellent hotel with an outstanding staff. EVERYONE at this hotel goes out of their way to make you stay great. This is a well run hotel. THANK YOU ALL FOR A REALLY GREAT STAY.
In a good area but under construction all around. Way to get to river walk. Staff ok Could use water bottles or at least more water in lobby since so hot
He got angry with me when I asked for a second omelet order because my wife had to sit with the children. It's a family restaurant. If Embassy Suites cannot accommodate such request, we will look for better customer service elsewhere. Thank you.
I loved the spaciousness of the room! ALL the staff was very helpful. The ambiance of this hotel is extremely traveler friendly!! LOVED it!! Everything was excellent!!
We had a pleasant stay here. The staff was excellent. Easy walking distance to all the riverwalk and downtown attractions.
Got in way later than we expected due to weather. Were able to get intoour room early . As always the staff was great. The room we had could have used some updating ( the tub was chipped) but clean and comfortable. Enjoyed the time there.
Amazing experience Beautiful hotel excellent breakfast
Problems checking in and checking out with cars. Service drive at entrance was jammed with vehicles and you couldn't get any service from valet!
If you expect this to be a top of the line hotel, think again! This was a trip with my sisters after waiting for eleven years. My husband and I wanted to treat my sisters to a nice hotel for this trip, since we were finally able to afford it. We were expecting a top of the line hotel, but this was more like a Super 8. Although the hotel room was nice, we did not have a view of the riverwalk, which was disappointing. When we arrived at the hotel, our driver from our car service had no where to go, since the entire valet area was full of cars. Since no bellhop came out, he dropped us off on the sidewalk in front of the hotel. We then walked our own bags in. Upon going to the front desk to check in, we were told that the room was not ready, because we were too early. She told us we needed to leave our bags until the room was ready. When we attempted to do so, she told us we needed to take them outside to the valet to check them ourselves. She never called the bell service. After leaving our bags, we went to lunch at Luke's (on site restaurant) to wait for our room to be finished. The food was delicious, although the server knew nothing about wine and the beignets were awful! There were several individuals at the bar, including some of the hotel employees, watching a football game and yelling, so it was not a peaceful lunch. After lunch, we went to get our room key, only to find several guests arriving with bellhops in tow. Others were told their bags would be waiting in their rooms. We were NEVER offered either of these options! It's heartbreaking to know that this is damage that cannot be reversed.
The hotel was right on the riverwalk with easy access to restaurants and shops. Staff was accommodating and the interior of the hotel was lovely. Awesome experience! I will certainly stay here again if given the opportunity.
Excellent choice for a hotel stay. Beautiful property with close proximity to the Riverwalk and other fine restaurants. Walking distance to all attractions. Great restaurants, bars, and other attractions.
Our son graduated from Basic Training at Lackland. The hotel was great! It only took about 15 min by car to get to the base. It is right next to the Riverwalk and the Alamo was less than a 1/2 mile walk. The hotel staff was so great. The room was very nice too. We had the two room as we also brought another son with us. The sofa was a pull out and our son slept very good on it. The free breakfast was very good and so was the evening social as well. I highly recommend this hotel if you are in San Antonio.
Great location, price, breakfast buffet, managers happy hour, and great suite with killer views!
Hotel was clean staff was nice. However, pool was full of unsupervised kids jumping in and purposely splashing other guests. This were kids probably anywhere from 6-13 years old. Hotel was informed and they didn't handle the situation. The breakfast was outstanding!! Overall, good experience but not worth more than $125 a night.
Location was awesome on the riverwalk and for that reason alone, I would recommend it to a friend. I wasn't happy to find out we had to pay for WiFi and $30 per night to valet park. Room was nice but furniture was worn out and not very comfortable. Check in clerk was slow and not friendly.
All is great here, but 4.95 per day for basic WiFi? Otherwise I love it.
Being on the Riverwalk was a must. By far, the highlight of the trip was going to SeaWorld and Aquatica followed by floating the Comal River.
