Overview

Central downtown location
Recent guests say that rooms are run-of-the-mill
Right off the bat, the Marriott Plaza San Antonio wins visitors over with the exotic birds that patrol its courtyard. Meanwhile, the hotel's exterior and lobby greet guests with an elegant Mexican-inspired design. While recent guests enjoyed the hotel grounds, many reported having an average experience. Some travelers have described the rooms here as run-of-the-mill Marriott –though that does mean you can expect to find a certain level of cleanliness, as well as high-end pillow-top beds and flat-screen LCD TVs. The property also offers a pool and the acclaimed Anaqua Restaurant & Grille, which serves up hearty portions of contemporary Texan fare. However, the main reason guests choose to stay here is the hotel's location, just a short walk from San Antonio attractions like the River Walk and The Alamo. And because this is a Marriott hotel, members of the Marriott Bonvoy program can use points to offset the cost of rooms.
