The location places groups within minutes of the city’s superstar attractions, including the River Walk, Alamo, and 1.3-million-square-foot Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center.

The hotel opened in spring 2008 at a cost of $285 million. Housed in an avant-garde design by one of the world’s leading architectural firms, Arquitectonica, the interiors blend chic contemporary backdrops with flashes of Latin color and local art—a perfect reflection of San Antonio’s forward-thinking present and living Tejano heritage.

With 1,003 guest rooms, 29 meeting rooms, and two ballrooms, the hotel hosts grand-scale events for up to 3,600 delegates nearly as easily as meetings of the board. Behind the scenes, a highly trained staff ensures that groups of all sizes receive the utmost standard of service.

To keep guests productive on the road, the amenities include a business center and concierges on duty 24/7, express check-in and checkout kiosks, special VIP check-in options, even kiosks for preflight check-in complete with boarding passes. To keep guests fit, the hotel maintains a 24-hour gym and outdoor lap pool. To keep them happily fed and entertained, it offers a red-hot lobby bar and pan-Latino restaurant with a breathtaking view of the San Antonio River Walk.

The front liners at this hotel really make a positive difference by going above and beyond for attendees and planners. The fresh modern look of the hotel (inside and out) is a welcomed addition to the other San Antonio properties along the river walk. Our attendees thoroughly enjoyed stepping right outside the hotel onto the river walk during their free time.

This is a beautiful property, with a fantastic location in San Antonio. The staff are all very earnest in their desire to help. They are very service oriented and more than happy to go the extra mile for you. However, we sensed that behind the scenes, they were disorganized and over-extended, with significant communication problems. There were constant problems, mistakes, and mis-communications at all levels which had a negative effect on our workload and put us on the defensive. It is very unlikely we will return to this property.
