Reviews
"Beautiful historic hotel. Amazing bar with the best margaritas in San Antonio. Valet service was impeccable (shout out to Andrew!) Would highly recommend and will be back!!"
"Great location for the price and super friendly staff but it needs a bit of a refurb. There is only so much that can be labeled "antique". The window in my room was very mildewed and the fixtures in the bathroom were rusty. One time the bathroom door wouldn't open for a while also, so I stopped closing it as I didn't want to get trapped. Not to be recommended for those who are light sleepers, the wall are super thing and you can hear the toilet flush in the neighbouring room. The thermostat on the shower was awful and several times I had to jump out to avoid being broiled."
"We loved our stay at the Menger. Everyone from front desk, housekeeping, waiters to the valet team were so nice and friendly. Room was nice and clean and bed was comfortable. You can’t ask for a better location. We will definitely stay at the Menger again and again."
"Valet was wonderful! Andrew helped my sweet sister navigate her way here around the weird construction around the Alamo. Such a blessing to an honorary early weekend commemorating our beloved dad at a family/childhood favorite place and destination! Thank you Andrew and thank you Menger hotel! We love you!"
"I wasn’t sure if the Menger would live up to my memories as a child, a kind of magical Victorian dollhouse of a hotel. I was worried maybe it had worn out and lost its lustre. Perhaps a tad since its heyday, but overwhelmingly I was so pleased. Our room in the old section overlooking the courtyard was extremely clean and painted a beautiful blue with crisp and on point Victorian draperies. The carpet was in absolute mint condition. So rare at hotels! The historic tiled bathroom had elegant touches, fanned towels, nice soaps, sparkling clean. The pool was heated to a divinely relaxing warm temperature which completely made up for the lack of a spa. It exceeded a spa! I really appreciated that the staff let me quietly soak a tad past pool closing, like REALLY appreciated as I had just put my toddler down for the night and desperately needed a little me time. For a moderately priced hotel, you cannot beat the value or location. My family has enjoyed this hotel for generations and I will be back!"
