Menger Hotel

Step into the exquisite, three-story Victorian lobby, and you are transported back to a time when Theodore Roosevelt was gathering his Rough Riders in the Menger Bar and San Antonio’s petticoated elite kicked up their heels at the city’s most elaborate galas and cotillion parties in the ballrooms. The hotel is renowned for its refined architecture, including its meticulously restored wing adorned with 19th-century panache; and the oval lobby with its Renaissance Corinthian columns rising from the burnished floor.
The walls and display cases are crowded with museum-worthy mementoes and photographs that capture the hotels' esteemed history—including a long line of honoured guests, several U.S. Presidents among them.

The Spanish courtyard garden, filled with palm trees, azaleas and a three-tiered fountain, is one of the most peaceful in town. But this is a contemporary San Antonio hotel as well, with gracious service and modern amenities (including the largest heated pool in San Antonio), assuring an extraordinary experience all around. 

The Menger Hotel offers 316 elegant guest rooms with a variety of options and floor plans, all infused with historic charm. Request a room with a private balcony, or a room with views of the Alamo, Alamo Plaza, swimming pool or Spanish courtyard garden. Whatever size or layout you choose, you are guaranteed modern comforts and outstanding guest service.
