10/10 Excellent
"My husband and I celebrated our wedding anniversary with a trip to San Antonio! The La Mansion did not disappoint! It’s a beautiful hotel and I love the decor in the rooms too. We had a room with a balcony overlooking the Riverwalk. We enjoyed being able to sit out there and watch the boats and people go by. The location is amazing! The bed was very comfortable and we really enjoyed the spa quality bathrobes! The only thing I’d point out is that the balcony is shared between several rooms. It was never an issue for us, but just to be aware! 😊"

"Room was clean and hotel is well situated to the riverwalk. The breakfast was nice and the pool and hot tub were very much appreciated. My only real note is that there is no where to get water beside their little market where it is sold for 3.25 a bottle."
