The La Mansión del Rio is located in downtown San Antonio, Texas, overlooking the historic Paseo del Rio, or River Walk. This seven-story, hacienda-style hotel is three blocks from the Alamo, seven blocks from the convention center, and eight blocks from El Mercado, "the largest Mexican market place outside of Mexico."
Arched doorways lead to the lobby, which features antique-style furnishings and a winding, wrought iron staircase; shade-giving trees grace a lush courtyard. Vacationers and business travelers enjoy the charm and cultural heritage of the hotel's beamed and molded ceilings, French doors, distinctive artifacts and tapestries. Amenities include an indoor pool with poolside bar, gift shop and business center. Las Canarias, which some consider the River Walk's most elegant restaurant, reflects the Old World charm of Colonial Spain. Built on three levels that descend to the River Walk, it offers diners a choice of tables on a riverside veranda, in an interior courtyard or one of three indoor levels that capture the ambiance of historic San Antonio. El Colegio, an intimate piano bar, takes guests' requests for favorite songs. The fitness center has cardiovascular equipment and free weights. Guests can walk across a footbridge to the Watermark Hotel and Spa, a sister property, for spa treatments and salon appointments.
The La Mansion del Rio has 337 guestrooms, most of which include double French doors opening to balconies overlooking the river, courtyard, or city. The guestrooms feature exposed brick walls, beamed ceilings, distinctive furnishings and fabrics, custom cotton bedding with triple sheeting, cotton bathrobes, large reading chairs, and glass-topped desks. The marble baths have large gilded mirrors, gooseneck faucets, plush bath linens, and quality bath products. In-room spa services are available for a surcharge.
An elegant and charming hotel, La Mansion Del Rio is nine miles from San Antonio International Airport.
