Beautiful historic hotel with lots of charm. The a/c struggled to cool the room, and the shower alternated between ice cold and blistering hot, as the water wasn’t mixing, but rather taking turns. With small kids, this was a huge problem. Also, there were a lot of weird noises all night long (read into that what you will). Also, a bullet hole in the glass outside the elevator waiting area was a little strange…

From check-in to check-out, the staff were friendly and accomodating. Stayed for three nights. I found the bed to be uncomfortable after the first night and the room wasn't cooling like it should. I was immediately relocated to another room where the bed was more suitable and the temperature was much better. The Menger is an old hotel and as such some things like water pressure, water temperature, and cooling may be affected. However, the hotel staff did go out of their way to ensure I had a pleasant stay - and I absolutely did! The convenience of a short walk to the Alamo and the Riverwalk brings entertainment, dining, and shopping to the point where a car wasn't needed. Information services is inside the hotel where you can book the trolley, the river cruise, and other available services. When we decide to go back to San Antonio, this is the hotel that I would love to stay at once again.
