The Riverwalk is BEAUTIFUL all the time, but Christmas is by far, the prettiest!
Debbie R.

What a BEAUTIFUL hotel! This hotel has a beautiful mix of rich historical Spanish aesthetic meets romantic 2026 5 star vibe! If you want to stay in San Antonio, this is the one to choose. If you want to find a hotel that has a beautiful romantic classy aesthetic, this is the one! Expect candles everywhere, beautiful fountains within its lobby and soft undertone lighting. Right on the Riverwalk but away from the crazy noise the Riverwalk can bring! The heart of the Riverwalk is less than a block away if you stay anytime during the holiday season, you will be surprised how beautiful how many Christmas lights hanging create a trip to remember! Clean comfortable rooms, beds are so comfortable, I felt as though I slid in a bed of butter. Pillows were so freaking amazing- I took photos of the labels so I can get the same when I get home! Quiet hallways, no noise and away from the craziness that the Riverwalk can bring. The only issue I had was every time I stay at this hotel, I have to call the front desk to reserve a room that specifically faces the Riverwalk, otherwise you won't know what room you will get.

Beautiful place to stay while your in San Antonio Texas. As we checked in we were greeted with margaritas for my wife and myself. The hostess was super friendly with a big smile on her face even helped us with our luggage to the elevator which is uncommon nowadays. The room was super comfortable with a southwestern flare. The hotel is centrally located and is on the Riverwalk of the San Antonio River. We'd love this place so much that we're planning on going back in November.

We stayed at Hotel Valencia for a weekend stay downtown and although the hotel is beautiful and the rooms are fabulous, there were a few aspects that disappointed. We had booked a room with a courtyard view and the desk attendant talked us into upgrading to a riverwalk view... which was of an abandoned building covered in graffiti the street over the riverwalk. Definately not worth the extra money.

This hotel was such a great choice to stay. It's on the Riverwalk, in a great location, it was clean, and the room was comfortable. The room was spacious, well ventilated, the service while checking in was great, we also had a few drinks at the bar downstairs and it was all a great experience. I don't have any complaints from our short stay, if I'm visiting San Antonio again I will return.

Beautiful views, it's in the center of everything!

This is an awesome hotel! Located near everything! Amazing views and I truly appreciated the high end finishes but the house keeping did fall short... *long sigh* not worth mentioning since the issue was rectified quickly but I had to give the house keeper guidance to be sure to look at the bed coverings cause I did find blood... ok I said I wasn't gonna mention it ... this was a great stay just wished that housekeeping takes better care. If I operated a hotel my housekeeping staff would have to be treated like rare treasure cause it's the most important job of the hotel (in my opinion)! The housekeeping and the dining are always what I look at most critically... attitudes can be over looked but once uncleanliness is noticed it just makes me feel like what else was missed but this place for decor, service and location definitely I'd recommend booking here! The king bed was so comfortable and nice bedding!

As frequent travelers who tend to not prioritize our lodging, this specific trip was celebrating our baby moon. I knew I wanted to have a nice hotel experience so I found a mobile deal booking Hotel Valencia. I even splurged and got a king bed with a balcony. We are very impressed when we walked in. We valet parked which was great because you can come and go as you please and just request your car when you want it about 15 mins beforehand through a link they send via text. The ONLY downfall was that the WiFi was down so I couldn't connect to my iPad but we only stayed for one night so it wasn't a major issue. The room was great. Ha slots of lamps for light and the balcony was a city view just before a river walk entrance. We ended up taking a walk down there in the morning which was lovely! But the day we checked in, they surprised us with a complimentary charcuterie board for celebrating our baby moon... we were SHOCKED and so appreciative. We took it to the courtyard and enjoyed this great board filled with cheeses, meats, jam, honey, nuts and fruit. It was the perfect afternoon snack and made our experience that much more special. Overall, this hotel is in a great location to the Alamo, riverwalk, and driving outside the downtown area.

The staff was the best I have ever experienced. It is a newer Hotel that displayed candles and water flow in the lobby. Relaxing music was played throughout the hotel and it smells good too.. You can purchase the scent. Rooms were flawless. I have allergies and no problems. The bed was awesome. Excellent experience. Kirk

Wow. Hotel Valencia lived up to the many raving reviews I read and more. It is a beautiful and unique building in a great location, and the decor and vibe are wonderful. I found all the staff I interacted with to be incredibly helpful and pleasant at all times. I didn't have a car with me, but the guys at the valet/door were on top of everything happening. I think in my stay I maybe had to open a door for myself once - they were always alert to who was coming and going, opening hotel and car doors for everything, and always friendly. The 2nd floor lobby is a beautiful space with a variety of little seating areas wonderfully decorated. There is always lively music playing, and they even have their own custom scent wafting about (you can buy the candle to take home if you choose). The free margarita on check-in was a nice way to ease into vacation mode. The 3rd floor has a nice little courtyard with some cafe tables and a water/fire feature that is going after dark to make it feel cozy. A great place to sit and relax for a bit after a long day. My king room was on the corner in a little nook, so the room itself had a small hallway and corner that functioned well to diffuse any hallway noise (of which I didn't hear much anyway). The bed was very comfortable. I slept better than at home! I enjoyed the bergamot and tea leaf scented shampoo and soap in the room. Hotel Valencia is in a great location - a number of restaurants within a block, including the hotel restaurant and another in the same building, a Starbucks across the street for those who need that fix, and just a quick set of steps to the Riverwalk next to the building.

We wanted to stay close to the Riverwalk during our weekend stay so Valencia met this requirement. A boutique Hotel and described as "Mediterranean inspired luxury" -they didn't disappoint. You had me at the complimentary Margarita during check-in. A nice and appreciated surprise. We got texts shortly after entering our room and throughout our stay checking in to make sure all was okay which was a nice touch. Opted for the Valet parking ($49) although there are offsite self park options. Service of the Valet team was well worth it. We had a Double room with a view of the Riverwalk. Room was spacious and a complimentary bottle of wine was included. Mini Bar/Fridge was included and the room stayed cool despite the triple digit August heat. A good size fitness room that had ample cardio equipment as well weights. Breakfast as well as an Argentinian themed restaurant and Tequila/Mezcal Bar were available. We opted to eat in the surrounding restaurants as there were a few good options. Lounge and restaurant area had a great vibe and they have a nice Courtyard. Service was outstanding! From check-in to Valet and throughout our entire stay. Just steps from the Riverwalk, would highly recommend.

See all

They have some cbd options too but I didn't try any of those. I tried the iced texas Star - flavorful and great espresso flavor. I do wish they used smaller ice cubes so the drink would last just a tiny bit longer. I also tried their chocolate croissant. Good, but would've been better warmed up! I don't remember if they offered that. My friend had the matcha and she loved it. They recently got a new matcha and she was worried because she loved the other one but was pleasantly surprised how smooth and delicious this one was as well. I definitely need to go back and try their matcha as well as other menu items because everything sounds so good. 1 star taken off because it is very hard to navigate with a stroller which is a bummer because I know tons of moms that love to venture out and find new coffee shops. On the plus side, clean restrooms with a changing table which is hard to come by!

The place has really opened up their space- it used to be crowded with a maze of tight cubicles of gallery and studios. Now, it's a wide open central gallery, with studios and smaller galleries off to the sides. In the front, they now have a coffee shop! Cool! In the back, they've paved in the side and back yards, where bands set up, and additional galleries can be found. All of the art is local, handmade, and ranges in media. Some of the art can not be purchased, as they are installation pieces. The art here is all reasonably priced, and there's a great variety of artists and vendors selling cool stuff. This place gets hopping for Second Saturday, a monthly art walk that centers around the galleries by the train tracks at South Flores. The art is just part of the scene- check out the live music too! Budding artists can rent space here to do their art, and sell it when they have events. Other than Second Saturday, you might need to book an appointment to come by many of the artists' galleries, but it seems that coffee is served all day.

The atmosphere alone makes a strong first impression and definitely gives a luxury experience. That said, the food was just okay considering the price point and overall presentation of the restaurant. Nothing was bad, but nothing particularly stood out either. Unfortunately, the service was the disappointing part of the experience. It felt inattentive at times and didn't quite match the level of hospitality you would expect from such a beautiful venue. Overall, it's worth visiting for the atmosphere and scenery, but I do hope the food and service improve to fully match the setting. I'm giving a 4 only because of the location and ambiance otherwise it would be 3.5.
