Hotel Contessa

Hotel Contessa is located right on the Riverwalk with beautiful views. It has tranquil outdoor seating right on the river. They had outstanding customer service. The pool is on the top floor and has a beautiful view of the city.

My only complaint was that there was some hair on the shower wall...but it was probably hard for housekeeping to notice it against the tile. Also, the TV remote was "temperamental". Minor issues all in all.

I travel frequently around the country and Europe and found Hotel Contessa very mediocre. The hotel itself looked nice but service was slow. The most disappointing part of the stay at Contessa was the theft of several articles. I am sure this doesn't reflect on everyone there but it will prevent me from staying there again or recommending the hotel as this has never happened to me before at any hotel.

My family and I (parents, aged 40 something, and two boys aged 10 and 12) stayed at this hotel over Spring vacation, and were thoroughly pleased with the room and the service.

The suite had plenty of room for all of us and it was in good condition, and in a great location. Considering that the alternative was two rooms in many other hotels, the junior suite was much more economical.

Fantastic hotel with excellent service. Really, these people were happy to have us and showed it; best concierge service ever. They scored us last minute tickets to the Spurs/Suns game 6. Easy walking distance to all the great places. Our room was awesome, quiet. Will definitely stay here if we hit San Antonio again. Have already recommended the Contessa to many of our friends. Top notch; be sure to check it out.

We loved the suite, it was very roomy. We got a great rate on the hotel and were able to see the riverwalk from the bedroom window.

The elevator side was a little noisy, but we didn't hear a thing in the bedroom. We had two TV's and a spacious bathroom. We loved having breakfast on the riverwalk.

We want to return and spend a little more time in San Antonio, we were just here for the first day of the Fiesta and would like to see the Texas Cavalier's River Parade.
