We have stayed in some very nice hotels but would have to say, the Mokara is up on the top of our list. From the moment we arrived, the service was top quality and very friendly. The rooms are beautiful and clean and the decor is good quality. They provided turn down service with free slippers, night mask and bottled... More

Can't say enough good things about The Mokara. Pricey - yes - but worth it for a splurge. Location is excellent - away from the "fray" of the Riverwalk. Every amenity imaginable. Beautiful rooftop pool and cafe area. Ostra - hotel restaurant - very classy, excellent menu,stunning outside seating area. The Mokara is like an oasis in the midst of... More

I can only echo other reviews about the high quality of the staff and their responsiveness. The hotel is very well appointed and the staff at every level worked to make the stay comfortable. The large whirlpool baths and ceiling fans were especially appreciated. We added a massage package and enjoyed them; we wished we could have tried every service!... More

We were originally booked at La Mansion, but were offered an upgrade to Mokara. We accepted, and had a wonderful experience. Very "high end" with every luxury imaginable. If you are going to splurge, stay at Mokara. Whether we were in the hall, lobby, spa, pool, or restaurant, we were greeted by every staff member and asked if we needed... More

My husband and I stayed at the Mokara for my 40th Birthday. My visit was exquisite from the moment I checked into the hotel. Valet greeted me by name and had cold bottles of water waiting for us. Check-in provided excellent service as well - staff managed to rush a bottle of champagne and chocolates in the room before we... More

Hotel very top quality in all areas. Staff are extremely competent and hospitable. All services from dining to room service to housekeeping to front desk etc. was outstanding. Cannot be any closer to access the River Walk. My only recommendation is that there should be better planning for 'big event' weekends although rare. Our stay was due to the George... More

Came to San Antonio on business and wanted to stay on the Riverwalk. Greeting was extremely polished and professional. Lovely lobby area and a real boutique feeling to the place. Room was fine with a large bathroom. My room was large and was good to work in as I had to spend the next morning preparing for meetings. My room,... More

Right on the riverwalk, with valet parking the hotel was easy to get to and just a short walk from restaraunts, bars, the convenyion center, the Alamo amd shopping. The room was spacious and the bathroom offered a nice shower and separate jacuzzi tub. Rooftop swimming with helpful staff. Ate at the cafe and restaraunt. Both were very good and... More

We were pampered from the start of our stay, starting at the front desk. Everyone on staff was extremely nice and friendly. We especially enjoyed the location on the Riverwalk and enjoyed the spa. The rooms were nice, but our view was not. We should have paid the extra for the river view.
