Staff was friendly, food in restaurant was slightly overpriced, but excellent. Convenience to Riverwalk and feeling of safety, high selling points for this location.

We have stayed at this hotel over the years. Love it. The location is great, close to La Villita shopping plaza. Quiet location, as it is not next to bars and loud restaurants. The staff is friendly and accommodating. Also, super honest. I had inadvertently paid twice without realizing it (charge said it didn’t go through the first time), and they notified upon check-in and process the refund promptly. The rooms are suites which has plenty of room to spread out. It will also be my choice when visiting S.A.

Loved the central location and the safety I felt staying here! Staff were always extremely friendly and helpful, and the food was amazing!! The girls at the spa were amazing as well, very knowledgeable and put me at ease. I enjoyed a facial and a massage and both were great. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend to anyone visiting San Antonio who wants to stay on the riverwalk!

Hotel Contessa's suite rooms are spacious and we enjoyed being so close to the beautifully lit River walk and close to the nearby Cathedral which had illumination evenings with the history of Texas. The food at the onsite restaurant was good but be sure to make resies. and the hotel is also convenient to a wonderful museum of Western art and sculptures. For a Christmas time trip Contessa did work nicely for our small family utilizing two rooms next to each other. Our son enjoyed the pool and work out area. Dec. 2024

We enjoyed the breakfast at The Ambler two mornings in a row. The Food was good and priced just right. The concierge Thurston was extremely helpful in making recommendations to eat, directions, etc, when we arrived. Our Location was perfect, right on The Riverwalk

Good location by Riverwalk. The suites were spacious with a large bathroom and separate living area. Had read a few mixed reviews, mainly on other sites, so the hotel exceeded my expectations. No real issues parking a hire car. We used the city-run lot on Houston Street about 5 minutes walk away and there were no problems.

I love Hotel Contessa, especially Francisco. He's very welcoming and recognizes you. He commented that my granddaughters had grown up so fast, and I didn't even think he would remember that they were my granddaughters, considering how busy it is. The smell when you walk into the hotel is amazing. My granddaughters went downstairs to have dinner while we attended a concert. They loved the food, but, considering my granddaughter insisted on paying for it herself rather than charging to the room, she was amazed at the prices but did say it was well worth it. The housekeeping staff is wonderful and polite as well. Thank you for being a part of the memories.
