The Drury Plaza Riverwalk is a beautiful, clean, and spacious hotel. Everything about this hotel was amazing. We stayed here for 4 days in April and our stay was wonderful. The Alamo Bank Building was restored and converted into The Drury Plaza Hotel creating great ambience, grand ceilings and unique rooms. Because the hotel was a bank, there are ornate decorations on the ceiling, a beautiful stained glass window in the lobby, and amazing historic significance. We stayed in an oversized Queen room which had a very spacious bedroom and living room area. The beds were extremely comfortable, each room had a great plasma TV and you had great views of the city from the large windows.
The pool area is located on the 26th floor with an amazing panoramic view of the city. There is a large pool and two hot tubs with one hot tub overlooking the western skyline. Great place to watch the sunset! There is also a separate patio area with several tables where you can sit and enjoy the great views.
The location of the hotel is great. All you need to do is walk out the back door and you're on the Riverwalk. A quick walk to the right and you're at the heart of all the restaurants and bars. What a great surprise! Plus, the hotel is a quick walk to the Alamo and Hemisphere Park.
Also, the free ammenities that come with your stay are definitely great perks. The happy hour which included 3 free drinks and light snacks and the free soda and popcorn every afternoon and evening were nice bonuses. It was great to be able to stop in and get a soda before and after walking around the city.
I would definitely stay here again and at other Drury hotels. After looking at the other hotels on the Riverwalk, the Drury Plaza is the best hotel for the price! Amazing!
