We had a wonderful stay at the Brackenridge House Bed & Breakfast. Lily was our Host and she was very accommodating and friendly. The room was lovely - furnished well and had everything we needed for our stay. It was very clean and the bedding was so comfy and cozy! We never moved our vehicle - everything we wanted to do was in walking distance: Riverwalk, Alamo Street. We hope to return very soon.

Great location. Calm neighborhood. Walking distance to Alamo and Riverwalk. Good Mexican restaurant called rosario’s Right around corner. Clean room. Great shower. Accomadting staff all of whom were very personable. Breakfast is timed and served usually at 9 am, as opposed to being buffet or order style, but was very good and filling the 3 mornings we ate. Also bc it was served to all guests at once, we had opportunities to meet and interact with other guests, which doesn’t always happen at these type facilities. House was old so be prepared for creaks. Also no elevator (that we saw or were made aware of) and a lot of stairs unless you are in one of rooms inside on first floor which could pose some difficulties for older guests. A very pleasant experience with no problems.

A gem! 💎

Wonderful house in a cozy strip of San Antonio. We loved being a short walk to the Riverwalk and all the restaurants and shops. Breakfast was delicious each day and I treated myself to a cookbook and souvenir mug! We enjoyed the hot tub on the one cold night and it was so refreshing. Definitely recommed this gem of a place!

Brackenridge House - Great location and comfortabl

Great location. Walking distance to the Alamo, restaurants, etc. Proprietor was very nice and helpful. Old, beautiful house but thin walls. Period tub was tricky to negogiate for a shower but all and all I would stay there again for a short stay... 2 to 3 nights.
