    Not hanger pole, they removed them.  Why?  The workers didn't know
    Nick O.

    Terrible hotel for how expensive it is. Valet is $70, but you come to find out that it takes them 15 to 30 minutes to fetch your car, so plan ahead. The luggage carts: they removed the hanging poles from them so that you can't hang your suit bags, so stupid. Then their bar was closed for a private event on a Thursday. And then the gas heater in the patio didn't work. And you have to order ice to your room, which takes 30 minutes. Be ready to spend over $35 for a breakfast burrito and a coffee. Plain old coffee $6. And what's with the stupid tiny glasses and cups. See picture. They are trying so hard to be boutique, and the results are a subpar Super 8. Spend your hard earned money elsewhere.

    Though they can't control this, pretty much every street ensconcing this hotel was under construction. Traffic was a complete CF and the traffic womble kept trying to divert people the wrong way down a road closure to a one way flow. At least she was trying? Check in was pretty smooth and our room looked really cool!! And that's about it. The bed had 2 pillows per person that were made out of confetti and completely collapsed on you. The bed itself was apparently designed for Fred Flinstone to sleep on it was so hard. The sheets were nice and crunchy as well. (Update. I had enough. New pillows were requested...which were worse and like a sock with cotton balls inside.) The towels were also nice and crispy and reeked of bleach and felt like toweling off with 500 grit sandpaper. The AC was broke? Never came on so mid 70's for us for the duration. (Update after vents were OPENED...room finally started to cool down...then we had to leave...) There was 1 box of tissue that had obviously been dropped in water, soaked through, and never replaced. Upon asking for new tissues we were given a roll of paper towels from the public bathroom hand drying station. Extra toilet paper was supplied on day 2. The coffee machine did not stop at 1 cup and pumped the entire reservoir into the small cups causing a coffee overflow situation. So it was abandoned lobby coffee was drinkable-ish. Whataburger again to the rescue. The shower was broken and ran constant drips. Also the drain to the shower was clogged. No wonder they have concrete floors for the inevitable lake the overflow will cause at some point. The washing items...diabolical. It was some "plant based" gobbledygook that was from New York (should tell you all you need to know) that made you smell like the Hudson...or reek. Your choice. Ewww. Fortunately we travel with our own. The "fridge" was more of a "slowly warm your drinks" machine. We had to request extra towels washcloths and hand towels. 2/3 elevators did not work half the time. There was no in room microwave to warm things if needed. The ice machine in the hallway functioned every 3rd try. Then not at all. The restaurant Domingo was very nice. Prices. Not so much. $16 for 1 bacon and some powdered scrambled eggs?!? To Whataburger!!!! More on this later as well. Whew!!! As someone who travels a lot, and for $250 a night...sadly this could have been WAY better and was only compounded by St. Patrick's day tourists. Which is confusing using SA as an SPD destination...but ok. Rock solid 2 stars. And that is a might bit generous

    Concrete floors in a dog-friendly room

    My husband and I stayed at this wonderful hotel for our first trip ever to San Antonio. One cannot beat the proximity to the Riverwalk and all that San Antonio has to offer. The Riverwalk is right downstairs, and it is 0.3 miles from the Alamo! The rooms are spacious and have a fun contemporary vibe. This is a dog friendly hotel, and we loved that our two small dogs could join us. The rooms are also very soundproof! Fewer unknown noises to concern our pups! Rooms were very clean upon arrival! And I loved the shower design. But what really makes this place stand out is the staff! EVERY SINGLE employee that we interacted with was pleasant and seemed genuinely happy that we chose to stay there. Parking tip: Valet is $65 a night, but there is a self park garage across the street for $40 a night!

    Used cup and towel

    After checking in somewhat late Thursday night, we walked up to a dirty room. Not just a little dirty, there were used cups, towels, a messy bed, and feces covering the toilet. It was absolutely disgusting and set a bad tone for the rest of the night/trip. I felt gross about everything I touched after that. They offered a $50 credit toward breakfast, but that feels so minimal for spending $200+ on a room and the $18 location fee to walk into a nasty room.

    Hotel rooftop bar

    Beautiful hotel, especially if you get a balcony suite facing the Riverwalk. And the heart of downtown has a dedicated rooftop bar in a restaurant which is on the Riverwalk. Extremely friendly staff will stay at this location upon my next visit to San Antonio.

    I WAS HIGHLY IMPRESSED WITH MY STAY HERE AT THE CANOPY. I luckily get to travel frequently for work and this time I had the pleasure coming out to San Antonio and knew I wanted to stay on the Riverwalk. After looking at reviews on Yelp, it was really hard for me to decide where to stay, however the modern asthetic/ design of the hotel is what caught my eye and their location. I AM SO GLAD I BOOKED MY 3 NIGHT STAY HERE. Since I am a Gold Member with Hilton, I was able to get a complimentary upgrade to a Riverwalk view. On top of it, I got a $30 day credit for food and breverage that i got use at their resteraunt which is very good and worth checking out. Went up to my room on the 15 floor (1514) and I LOVED IT! SUPER SPACIOUS ROOM, high quality furniture/ decor. I loved the granite floors and the floor to ceiling windows as it gave the room such a modern view. The bathroom area was huge and loved the title. The water pressure was perfect and the water got hot easily. The nespresso machine was a nice touch. Also, the rooms controls (TV, AC, ect,) can be controlled from your Hilton app! Service here on top of it was amazing. Every time I interacted with the guest line for more nespresso pods or anything, they were kind and sent it up right away! Honestly don't hesitate to stay here, they are worth every penny! 5/5 stars if you ask me. Thank you Canopy for the great hospitality!

    Valet assistance helped right away, but takes time to pick up car. A gentleman greeted us outside and warned us flooring remodel noise and offered us to wait outside as he checked us in. It was fine and he got us to our room right away. Our room was 916 and it was a tad on the small side. View on riverwalk from up top. It's an industrial modern feel. We visited the restaurant, Domingo's and they were attentive and swift with service! I loved the location of this hotel as getting on the riverboats are just under the bridge.

    Even more dessert from the hotel restaurant

    The Canopy in San Antonio is a no-frills hotel located on St. Mary's street and the river walk. It features a restaurant, Domingo, downstairs on the riverwalk level. The parking situation appears to be valet; I didn't drive, so I can't comment on that experience. But the valets do open the front entrance doors if they are around. When you enter, the checkin area is to the right at a "desk" that has space for 2 staff. They will kindly check baggage for you if you arrive early. The lobby area is actually a bit small. There are some TVs and a bit of seating. Elevator access is keycard controlled. The hotel has more than 20 floors. Lobby bathrooms are actually downstairs by Domingo (curl around behind the elevators). Going up, there exists water bottle fillers for each floor--it seems to be tap water, but it isn't particular pleasant tasting. The rooms have concrete floors. Room controls (aka the TV) can be controlled through the Hilton app. I stayed in a room that faces St. Mary's street. A divider exists between the sleeping area and the bathroom area / entrance. The sink is separated from the toilet and shower via a sliding door. The room had a nice view of swimming pool / spa area of the Mokara Hotel & Spa, as well as the Torch of Friendship statue. Location-wise, this hotel is well situated. The hotel restaurant Domingo appears to be quite popular, so if it's too busy, you could just order takeout from there. It's an easy walk to anywhere bounded by the interstates. It's only a couple blocks away from the light show at the San Fernando Cathedral, has easy access to 3 branches of riverwalk, etc. A quiet and clean room good for a simple stay.

    Very delicious drinks, highly recommend or a date night cocktail. The food was equally as good.nice atmosphere downtown with friendly staff. Would recommend for any occasion. If you are downtown you might as well stop by!

    I am so glad we booked this hotel based on the Trip Advisor score (5.0) rather than the Yelp score (3.7). This hotel was amazing start to finish. I'm a diamond member so we had already been upgraded prior to arrival. At arrival the front desk offered us a suite upgrade for a small fee. It was worth every dime. The room was amazing, the service was wonderful, the restaurant and bar were both great. I have 0 complaints. Every staff we interacted with was professional and friendly far beyond a typical hotel experience for the area. We will be back. I have stayed at most every hotel in the riverwalk area at this point and this is probably my favorite for the money. It's not a 5 star hotel (there's only two of those in the riverwalk area and they charge 2-4x the price of this hotel), so it doesn't have a grand entrance or lobby. It's a well-curated boutique hotel with only a few rooms per floor. The suite was super clean, very modern, insanely large shower (honestly like 7ftx7ft), and well thought out design. It's in the perfect area of the riverwalk, right by everything. It's literately connected to Esquire, my favorite bar in the area. Know that this is a popular area of the riverwalk, and suites are the only rooms with balconies and are on the lower floors--so if you're going for a weekend, there will be some noise pollution at night, but nothing crazy. In addition to the excellent layout, I want to point out a few pros and cons of the room for the easily changeable parts of the stay. Pros: The room had a fabric steamer, not an iron. This came in handy perfectly to steam out the creases in a new shirt I bought while in town and wanted to wear. The TVs had accessible HDMI ports so we didn't have to unplug anything or do anything weird like at a lot of hotels to plug in our travel Roku. The coffee machine is a Nespresso. The bathroom very smartly has a large open faced cabinet that handled our luggage and clothing simply. The fridge is a pull out drawer which was chic and super easy to use for our drinks. There's a filtered water dispenser super close to all the rooms and a clean bottle in the room to refill--so you don't have to drink hotel sink water or bring a bunch of bottles. Cons: The shampoo, soap, etc are all a high curated brand but the scent was definitely not for me. They call it charcoal infused but it smelled like campfire to me. Thankfully I brought my own. The room didn't come with an extra blanket anywhere. I'm sure I could have easily called the desk and gotten one, but it would have been nice on such a cold weekend. The room has glasses but no stemware. Maybe everyone isn't a lush like we are but stemware in the room would have been nice. We did ask the front desk and it wasn't available, she told us we could go ask the restaurant. That seems like something the manager should address. The TP in the bathroom should be upgraded to something less...motel 6. That's my honest review. We loved our stay and will be back soon!

    Very modern hotel in downtown San Antonio. Walking distance to the river walk. Although the city right now has a lot of construction. Rooms are spacious and clean. There's water refill stations on every floor. There's a small gym and restaurant and bar on site. There's only valet parking which does take a while to get the car. Would recommend staying here.

What set it apart wasn't simply the beautiful hotel or location -- it was the level of personal care. Ariel at the concierge desk was wonderful. She helped arrange safe airport transportation for my friend when she arrived before me and, when my flight was significantly delayed, made sure she could check in without me. Being stuck traveling and knowing she was in good hands was invaluable. We were welcomed with a personal note, fruit, flowers and champagne, and then surprised with more birthday treats during our spa day. Those thoughtful details made the entire stay feel special. And the SPA! Easily one of the best I've ever visited. Being able to truly relax before and after our treatments -- especially in the beautiful post-treatment lounge -- made it an experience rather than simply a massage appointment. Jessica gave me what was quite literally the best massage I've ever had (and I've had a lot of massages!). Even the little things stood out: complimentary morning coffee delivered through room service and an incredibly kind and helpful room-service attendant. Luxury hotels can have beautiful rooms and impressive amenities. What made Mokara exceptional was how genuinely cared for we felt from beginning to end. The personal touches made all the difference. Mokara will absolutely be at the top of my list the next time I'm in San Antonio. Five stars without hesitation.

I really wanted to eat at Ostra again this visit, because I saw redfish on the menu and wondered if it was really as good as my memory of it. I was initially bummed that Ostra was closed for a private event during my stay, BUT my disappointment quickly turned to excitement when I saw the same dish offered on the room service menu. YES!! It was as good if not better than my memory of it! Finally and importantly, the individuals working in valet, front desk, and room service were so service driven and friendly!

Even the room service staff was top notch! The rooms were beautiful and well set up for comfort and luxury. Even the bathroom was luxurious and inviting. We enjoyed checking out the Private Library while having cocktails and learning even more about this fascinating building from the new and friendly Concierge. The pool was beautiful, warm and inviting and offered an interesting view from one of the upper floors. The Hotel bar offered some great perks for guest, private upstairs access away from the crowds, top notch service and attention from the staff and the opportunity to spend some time sipping cocktails on the couch in private in an old 28,000 gallon beer finishing tank. Having coffee and pastries on a beautiful outdoor patio in the morning was also another great opportunity. There was close access to many different places in the Peal Brewing square area adjacent to Hotel Emma including a great morning street fair on Sunday. Hotel Emma is the only 5 Star Hotel that we are aware of in Texas and also provided an outstanding Michelien rated restaurant for dinner (separate review). Over all, we can not find one thing we were unhappy with during our stay at Hotel Emma, other than the fact that our stay was far too short. If you are looking for the ultimate in Hotel stays/service, you MUST take some time and come for a stay. We will definitely be returning to Hotel Emma on our next trip to San Antonio.

The interior rooms look out into the atrium/lobby area inside the hotel. Didn't have any real natural light and if your curtains were open and light on, it felt like other rooms could look in. So I left the curtains closed the whole time. It was very dark as the lights inside the room did not put off too much light. There is no dresser, but rather a place just in the door to hang clothes and 1 drawer. The room had a mini fridge and a kreurig, but only with decaf and dark roast (neither of what I drink). There is no microwave in the room. The room is small, but perfect for 1 person. I don't know how 2 people would fit in here unless 1 kept all their clothes in their suitcase. There is not much room to walk around, pull the ironing board out for use, and the bathroom was very small too. Overall, I would stay here again, but would hope for an exterior room for a bit more light so I wouldn't feel like a blood sucking vampire ‍
