I went to this spa twice while staying at the hotel. I am a spa junkie! The first visit was bad because I had a facial and the lady doing it practically did surgery on my forehead! I complained to the management and they said I would get a discount the next time. I went about a year later. No... More

I have had to be in San Antonio 3 or 4 times over the past year or so and have stayed a couple of different places. The last 2 times [within the past 45 days or so] I have stayed at the Mokara Hotel. By far, the pick of the litter in San Antonio. I travel externsively for business and... More

As you may have noticed, we have begun the process of upgrading our guestrooms to make them even more comfortable. In the past several weeks we have installed new Simmons Black pillow-top mattresses, and most recently new LCD televisions. Coming soon are... More

We stayed here for 4 days and couldn't have wished for a more beautiful hotel. Room (with a balcony and view of RiverWalk) was large, clean, and luxurious. Espresso maker in the room, comfortable bed, huge marble bathroom with jetted tub. Service throughout the hotel was impeccable, from the front desk who greeted us by name the moment we walked...

This palace was absolutely perfect! This was our first time there and we will be back for sure. The location is perfect, room was beautiful, clean, and spacious. We loved all the little extras such as concierge welcome email before we arrived, spa products in the bathroom (some were not free of course), great room snacks, awesome coffee maker with... More

First time at this hotel and we were very impressed with everything. The hotel is in a great location on the river walk and within easy walking distance to everything. My wife planned the trip for my birthday and she was very impressed with Petra the hotel's concierge. They had a couple very nice surprises waiting for me in the... More

My room was excellent - Nespresso in room - heaven! Also, the bathroom was to die for, and the shampoos, lotions, etc. provided were of superior quality. The service overall was great. The spa was beautiful. There was a great fitness facility that guests had access to - one of the best I have seen in all my travels. It... More

From the email before we ever left home (Concierge touching base with us and introducing themself) to the elegantly appointed lobby/hotel.. to the pristinely professional staff.. AMAZING. Check in was a breeze, and the lobby was a beautiful retreat from the hub-bub of the bustling Riverwalk and San Antonio streets. The Valet was wonderful and always helpful with tips on... More

I was at this property for two nights with my son. We had a "a Spa suite".. Great service and very kind people. It is not one of the big convention hotels, it is on the Riverwalk but slightly removed....which is a big advantage. The property could not be nicer. There is nothing compaparble in SA. Staff is very kind... More

We expected to drive through San Antonio on our anniversary, so we booked three days at the Mokara for early December. The booking had to be made through Omni's central facility, not the hotel, so it was impossible to get solid answers to various questions from the corporate-polite drone at the other end. Still, we arrived to find that we'd... More

Amazing experience from the champagne registration to the well appointed rooms. We loved the balcony that overlooked the Riverwalk...best view around. Do not miss out on this lovely hotel. More
