Started out badly for us here. The first room they brought us to had big stains on the carpet and looked unsanitary. There was also a sizeable step up to the bathroom that our children tripped on twice in 15 minutes. After complaining, they moved us to a different room that was much better so I hope that room was... more

Complimentary Coffee in AM at 1st floor elevator. Staff friendly and helpful. Room was clean but dated. Very handy location, easy walk to Alamo and Riverwalk. Banquet food was OK but SERVICE almost non-existant at banquet- - Had to look for waiter to get coffee; Almost like they were saying "Eat & Go". Wireless in Lobby. more

The Menger's reputation says it all. However, if you don't know about the Menger, it's been around for a very long time. It is adjacent to the Alamo. All of the rooms are unique. If you are not a fan of historic hotels, then please don't stay here, you won't appreciate it. The staff is superb. You must eat Mango... more

I travel to San Antonio occasionally to visit my brother and when in town I stay here. I enjoy the history of this hotel. I also think the location is the best in the city being next to the Alamo and only a block away from the River Walk. The bar and the lobby are incredible. The rooms are small... more

This hotel has a great history and its one-time elegance is visible in the grand hall. But an interesting past does not make up for indifferent service, bland, boring food and rather dated rooms. The restaurant looks very nice but the first morning were there the hostess was MIA. After 5-10 minutes, we seated ourselves. They offered a buffet which... more

The Menger is a "grand" hotel, and it is not your spiffy, modern, sleek, yuppie-style lodging. It is a classic place, enshrined in its incredibly historic past, yet full of most of the modern conveniences one expects in a fine hotel. I was visiting the Alamo and walked across the street to see if any rooms were available. The front... more

The hotel is a gem, they've kept the old in beautiful condition and added all the modern conveniences. Beautiful shops are just downstairs. The hotel is across the corner from the Alamo; it doesn't get any better. You can also walk two blocks to the Riverwalk. We had a very short stay so I cannot wait to return and see... more

We stayed here over Easter weekend, because we got a great deal on tripadvisor. We read that some rooms had been updated and others hadn't, and I think we were in one that hadn't been. It was a basic hotel room, the room and bathroom were spacious, and we had a great view and easy access to the pool and... more

Then I wasn't told about a free margarita if your rooms not ready until another quest told be about it. So back to the front desk. Even though... more
