The staff at Comfort Suites were top notch and the service was as well. Room and all facilities were spotless and beautiful. Breakfast was great. I was here on a business trip but loved the hotel so much I am planning a personal trip and will definitely make it a destination for my stay.

“Vacation Dec 2012 review”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 9, 2012

Three families chose the Comfort Suites Alamo/Riverwalk to meet and stay for our vacation in Dec 2012. One family from Indiana and two from North Carolina. We wanted a reasonably priced place to stay that was within a short distance to the Riverwalk. We are so happy with our choice. It was evident upon checking in that Manuel behind the counter was there to help us in any way he could. He took care of checking us in, but more than that, he made us feel welcome right away. He answered all of the questions we had related to our plans, giving us direction and assistance with amenities that were at our diposal, including free shuttle to the areas we were interested in going to. He was a perfect beginning to our stay here (and he continued with the same help and friendly service throughout our stay). Great customer service did not end there. The staff at the morning breakast was also very attentive to our needs. It was easy to see with the way they would greet you, offer their assistance, and just the positive attitude each one would display as they went about performing their service. Georgia and the entire staff really made us feel welcome each morning when we arrived for breakfast. Once as I was standing and deciding what I might like to have for breakfast, Georgia immediately asked if I needed any assistance with anything and if she could be of any help. We also had the fortune to meet Sherry the owner, and it quickly became evident why all of the staff placed such importance on customer service. Sherry made us feel like valued guests, and any opinions that we had, good or bad, were of value to her. As we chatted with Sherry, her attitude towards customer service was so evident that it was easy to see why it has successfully filtered to each member of her staff. We were within walking distance of the Riverwalk, but their shuttle was an option as well if walking a few blocks is not your desire. There were many items to choose from for breakfast, all good tasting and good quality. Our room was vey spacious and comfortable, and the beds slept very nicely. The heated pool and hot tub were very enjoyable, including a nice, covered seating area by the pool. If you're looking for a reasonably priced place to stay in this area, I think you would enjoy your stay at what we felt was a very nice place that puts such a high value on customer service.

We are very pleased to hear that you such an amazing time at our hotel during your get-together with your different families, and we sincerely appreciate your thorough, candid feedback about your experience. I am very happy that all of our staff did what they could to meet your needs from arrival to departure. We truly try to foster the highest level of service for each instance of guest-staff interaction, because we understand that guest will expect certain amenities or specific questions answered about the area - and I am very proud of how hard our staff works to accomplish and meet these guest expectations. I am most proud of the fact that you remember so much about our staff, including their names, as they are the ones who maintain the high quality service at our hotel on a daily basis. Moreover, we appreciate all your compliments about the hotel's features and amenities as we are doing "light" remodeling to the hotel currently (including we have just installed all brand new Precor fitness equipment). Overall, I am overwhelmed that your trip to San Antonio was so memorable, and we truly hope that you and your friends make the time to visit us again in your future travels. Thank you again for all your feedback.

“Wonderful Place to Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 7, 2012

We stayed at Comfort Suites Alamo/Riverwalk for the NCAA Soccer Tournament. Our room was spotless, the staff was extremely accommodating while providing us with maps and other information about the area, and the location was perfect. While not on the Riverwalk, the location was so close that walking to the Alamo and Riverwalk were very enjoyable while providing us with some exercise. The continental breakfast was very tasty and the staff on duty continued to refill the items. The Texas-shaped waffles were an added bonus. The queen size mattresses provided excellent support and comfort. We would definitely stay here again on our next visit to San Antonio.

“Loved the room!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 3, 2012

The front desk staff was great when I checked in, they got me downtown in the courtsey van right away and gave me great tips on where to go. The room was awesome. For that price I expected a small room, but I got a huge suite. The breakfast was great.
They made me feel special. I will definately stay at the Comfort Suite in the future!

We thank you for taking the time to post your feedback as it truly helps from a management perspective, as we can ensure the property and the staff are meeting your needs. I am glad to hear that you found the value of our hotel exceptional for the price you paid. We do try to provide our guests with as many free amenities, such as the limited shuttle, deluxe breakfast, and high speed wi-fi, because we do not like adding hidden costs to customers' bills throughout their stay. We also try our best to create a personal connection with our guests in order to better serve them, and I hope you truly felt this way by the end of your stay. We hope you visit San Antonio again soon and that you remember to stay with us at the Comfort Suites Alamo/Riverwalk in Downtown.

“Great Place to Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 29, 2012

We recently spent a couple of days in San Antonio, TX attending the Holiday Lighting of the Riverwalk. We had reservations at the Comfort Suites and were very pleased with the accommodations. The staff was very friendly and immediately fulfilled our requests. We had a great breakfast every morning and coffee all day long. Be sure and try the Texas shaped waffle. It's a treat that can't be beat. Both of our adjoining suites were very clean, had pleanty of towels and nice bedding. The shuttle driver took us right down to the Riverwalk, to our restaurant. It was nice not to have to drive through the crowded streets. We visit San Antonio several times a year and the Comfort Suites are the only place we stay.

We appreciate you taking the time to post such a positive review about our hotel on TripAdvisor. We are glad that you were able to visit San Antonio during the Lighting Ceremony on the Riverwalk as it is such a special time in Downtown San Antonio, especially if you get to see the River Parade. However, the new lighting design installed on the Riverwalk will be up through the New Year, so we encourage everyone to stop by Downtown to witness this spectacular time of year in the heart of Texas. Moreover, it is very pleasing to hear that you had such an amazing time in San Antonio as well as at our hotel and we hope that you continue to visit our wonderful city and continue staying with us at the Comfort Suites Alamo/Riverwalk. Thank you again posting your compliments.
