Crowne Plaza Hotel RIVERWALK

Address 111 E Pecan St, San Antonio, TX 78205 Map, Tel 210- 354-2800 Call,

We stayed at this hotel as a result of a name your own price website. It is a rather nice property but far from the main part of the riverwalk. Our price was reasonable because of the purchase method but otherwise I would not have chosen to stay here. As far as child friendly ammenities go, the pool is satisfactory but there are no extras like mini fridge or free wi-fi or continental breakfast. All those things make a world of difference to a mom traveler. There is a $4/day parking lot 2 blocks away, so save the $ on the parking garage. We could see our car from our room window! more

Drury Inn & Suites Riverwalk

Address 201 N. St. Mary's Street Map, Tel 210-212-5200 Call, Website

Drury Inn has 2 properties near the Riverwalk. We know because we tried checking in at the wrong one - Drury Plaza (which seemed like it happened often as they had a printed copy of directions to the other hotel). This hotel was a dream for families with small kids. Our suite was 2 rooms, we could put the kids to bed early and hang out for grown up time in the living room. Great free breakfast, we enjoyed the belgian wafflemaker daily, and evening snacks, popcorn, hot dog, chicken strips, etc. Really, what kid would be unhappy here. Also, free internet was a plus. This was a stay I won but I'd happily spend my own money at this hotel. more

This is a great place for families. The pool has a sloped entrance which is great for toddlers. The lazy river has double occupancy innertubes (one side has a bottom) also great for little ones. There is a playground on site and a "children's club". It was not officially open but they let us use it as there was a day of terrible rain that kept us from going to Sea World. It is very near Sea World too. The grounds are beautiful and we enjoyed the smores they did in the evenings. We'll be back! more

The Omni - La Mansion

Address 112 College Street, San Antonio, TX 78205-1811 Map, Tel (210) 518-1000 Call, Website

The staff at La Mansion on the San Antonio Riverwalk are truly amazing, caring, helpful, & considerate of all our needs. Our 3yr old needed room to play but we needed to be in an adjoining room w/ my parents (the grandparents!) The staff changed our rooms when we got to the hotel to check-in, & they saw how old our little guy was. They asked us to give them 5 minutes & they moved a "roll-away" from the original room to the new room - on a corner with a balcony, that wrapped around & connected w/ the balcony of my parents' room making a 35' by 3' wide play area overlooking the bridge/riverwalk. They also provided an "Omni Kids Pack" backpack w/ little treats to help keep our little one entertained in the room & new things to take w/ us as we explored. When we came back to our room there were warm cookies & cold milk waiting each night of our stay! What a special stay we had as a family - fun out & about and in our hotel! more
