The history... the location... the place is beautiful

We did not get breakfast because the Sunday Brunch was too expensive.

Jennie

Hotel was central to downtown, with Alamo directly across street. Hop-on-hop-off, horse & buggy, and streetcars all in front of hotel. Riverwalk was an easy block away, and shopping mall access on one side.

William

United States of America

Location is perfect...right adjacent to the Alamo and the Riverwalk. Walking distance to the Riverwalk as well as many restaurants in the area. A historic hotel that lives up the billing of an old-school experience.

Billing system is impossible to work out . I booked 3 rooms for 3 nights and in that time 9 transations appeared on my credit card. When I asked the manager he said they were authorisations. The bill was not easy to follow I travel the world and I have never seen a billing system like it
Breakfast and the old bar are great . Rooms are good too .

My bathroom was dirty. There was dust all over the top of the toilet paper holder and tile on the wall. The tub was stained and old. Extremely outdated and spotted paint. Crooked picture in my room, dusty around the molding. The room was freezing 63 degrees. We could not get it any warmer. The heat was shut off in the building. The front desk told us it should get warmer at night because they were going to shut the air off in the building. They also had more blankets sent up at our request. I can't even be comfortable in my own room? I had a jacket on.
Beautiful lobby, bar and restaurant. The staff is very friendly.

Paper thin walls. I could hear everything from my neighbors, hear everything on street level even at the top level, every horse carriage every jerk in his car blasting his bass beyond a reasonable level, every drunk walking along the alamo sidewalk, and when asked the front desk for a white noise machine or fan to drown it out some they informed me that all fans where sold out. Also The bed was so hard my shoulder ached afterwords... but I prefer a softer mattress so I won’t necessarily fault them on not know my mattress type. Just everything combined for me personally lead for a very expensive disappointing night on my 15th wedding anniversary

“I would stay at the Menger again on my next visit to San Antonio.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 2 nights
Room was colder than desired, because the hotel is unable to provide either A/C or heat, on demand. Central unit can provide only one, depending on the season. Parking was only valet, unless one finds a nearby park garage. Parking was a bit pricey at flat rate $28 per day, but visitor could come and go with no additional cost (except expected tip). The room was a tad bit smaller and less luxurious than one might find in newer (and pricier) hotels, but I opted for the historic feeling.

Very poor service at this hotel. I had book three nights through booking.com, upon arrival I was given cheaper room than what I had paid for. I was told that was because I had booked through an online service and therefore they had no obligation to even give me a room at the hotel. My friend had booked directly with the hotel and she checked into the room she had booked and was given two free drink coupons for the bar at the hotel. My room was extremely cold. The heather was not working in the room. I asked for more blankets. It took several calls and hours just to get one small blanket. Each morning I talked with the front desk about how I wasn't able to get a night's sleep due to the room being so cold at night. Finally the last evening I was able to be moved to a different room, equivalent to what I had originally booked and I was able to get some sleep. The first room was extremely cold with draft from the windows, no curtains and a very high ceiling. The staff was not listening and ignored my requests with the excuse that they had no obligation to me because I had booked on line.
The hotel is a beautiful historic landmark and the location is great.

The only thing would be the climate controls. It's an older hotel, so central A/C-heating is available. Room was a bit chilly, since it was January, but it was bearable. And, the bathroom is a bit small...really made for one person, but it wasn't a big deal.
