Location. The Omni La Mansión del Rio is located in downtown San Antonio, Texas, overlooking the city's historic Riverwalk. This hacienda style hotel is three blocks from the Alamo, seven blocks from the convention center, and eight blocks from El Mercado, the largest Mexican market place in the United States.
Hotel Features. The Spanish colonial architecture of the hotel is reflected in its Las Canarias restaurant, serving authentic Old World cuisine in an interior brick paved courtyard and three verandas descending into the Riverwalk. Signature entrees include Buffalo Carpaccio with Herbed Quinoa and Texas Blue Crab Stuffed Swordfish Tempura. Sunday champagne brunches are served weekly. The on site El Colegio, once home to the St. Mary's College library, now houses an intimate piano bar that serves regional appetizers.
Meeting and banquet facilities within the hotel grounds offer more than 15,000 square feet of event space, including a 3,900 square foot Iberian Ballroom that accommodates groups up to 500 people. The lobby's arched doorways lead to a fully furnished business center. Also adorning the interior of the hotel are antique style furnishings and artifacts, a gift shop and a winding wrought iron staircase. Recreational amenities include an outdoor pool with poolside bar. The hotel's sister property, Watermark Hotel and Spa, offers spa treatments and salon appointments across the Riverwalk via footbridge.
Guestrooms.Guestrooms at the Omni La Mansion del Rio feature beamed ceilings, exposed brick walls and double French doors opening to balconies overlooking the river, courtyard, or city. Rooms are fully furnished with custom cotton bedding with triple sheeting, large reading chairs, and glass topped desks. Marble bathing areas have gilded mirrors, gooseneck faucets and cotton bath linens.
Expert Tip. Upon request for turndown service, complimentary boxes of worry dolls are set on the pillows, with instructions to place one doll for every worry under the pillows at night. The objective of the ritual is said to assist guests in awaking the next morning worry free.
