I was here Nov.29-Dec.5 rm. 212 for an educational conference. I did most of my survey of the building the night of Nov. 29. Contrary to a report, this building has 5 floors- not 3. The room is surprisingly large. About 22 x 15 feet. The room was clean and was equipped with a table and a chair that was... more

Fantastic position in the centre of San Antonio, right on the river walk and very near one of the spots where River Cruises begin. Easy to get to, lots of parking, rooms comfortable but small. However, desk staff were very rude when there was a problem with keys. When asked questions, other staff seemed either not to know, or care,... more

It is an old building, with a couple of bruises, but it is mostly clean and quiet. The best part of the hotel is the staff. They were friendly, helpful and efficient even though the hotel was filled with dozens of screaming kids attending a basketball tournament. The only downside was that the location requires you have to run a... more

We stayed at this hotel with my in laws for one night on a leisure trip to San Antonio. The rooms are spacious clean and well furnished - the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. I even think the breakfast is good for a 'continental' option with bacon, eggs, biscuits and gravy in addition to the toast/cereal/bagels you normally find.... more

A very nice, very reasonable place to stay. Riverwalk access. Beds are a bit hard, but rooms were nice and clean, the most important thing to me. Valet service is super quick. more

I was very happy with my Holiday Inn Express stay...for someone who travels for business a lot, a place that has free Wi-Fi and breakfast, it is convenient and saves me a lot of time. The staff would talk to me by name and their shuttle down to the River Walk was so great. The rooms were very clean and... more

I visited San Antonio for a conference and during the conference stayed at the Hyatt Regency San Antonio. Afterwards I moved to the Holiday Inn Express N Riverwalk Area because it was a third the price of the Hyatt. I was very pleasantly surprised to discover that in many ways, the Holiday Inn Express was much better than the Hyatt.... more

I don't think I've ever stayed at a hotel where the pillows are rated for softness- but there was the rating, embroidered on the pillow case! A choice of soft or firm, and I could feel the difference. We had an emergency trip to Texas & had to overnight in San Antonio before our flight home the next morning. We... more

In Jan 09, this hotel changed from a Comfort Inn Alamo to the Holiday Inn Express. The first time I stayed here was for one week in Feb 09. Since my experience was mediocre at best, I decided to wait and write my review after my second or third visit due to the recent transfer from Comfort Inn to Holiday... more
