Historic Texas landmark with rooftop pool on San Antonio's River Walk
Equal effort was made maintaining the historical character of this 1920s-era 24-story skyscraper, formerly the Alamo Bank, and upgrading the amenities to include key luxuries, in keeping with the River Walk-adjacent glamour. Being just four blocks from San Antonio's Market Square and The Alamo makes tapping into the old-school charm easy -- as easy as it is to shop one's heart out at the boutiques on the glamorous River Walk or at the nearby River Center Mall.
Highlights
  • Right on the River Walk and in the heart of the theater district, across the street from the Aztec Theater
  • Rooftop pool with two hot tubs
  • Free hot Quikstart Breakfast and Kickback early-evening snacks, with hot food and cold beverages
Rooms

Many of the Drury Plaza Hotel's 380 rooms offer a place to watch the water lazily winding along the glitzy River Walk. If that ever loses its charm, every room has its own flat panel LCD TV, with HBO and a wide array of cable channels. Furnishings are traditional, with dark wood, subtle floral prints, and ample storage. Hair dryers, irons and ironing boards also come standard.

Features

The homey steakhouse chain, Texas Land and Cattle, is located on the property, and many more restaurants are just steps away. Theaters, including the Majestic, Empire, and Aztec are very close by. The palatial lobby features 50-foot ceilings, travertine flooring and stained glass windows.

Quick trip into and out of San Antonio

The hotel is very near the RiverWalk and in close proximity to the Convention Center. I was only in town for 23 hours arriving late on a thursday and out again by 6pm on friday, so my stay was short. The Drury has the elegance of the grand hotels from the 20's and 30's. I found the room spacious and well maintained. I like to visit older establishments because of their character and this hotel, I found to be exceptional.

Clean and classic

Unique older bank building converted to a hotel with a european feel, terrazo/marble floors, lots of wood trim, comfortable rooms and and can take the elevator to the ground floor and exit directly onto the beautiful river walk. Good free breakfast and dinner, nice place and comfortable. Pleasant staff, beautiful lobby.

Weekend Riverwalk Trip

Very clean and comfortable. There are two Drury hotels right accross from each other and both are on St. Mary's Street. Even though they allow pets at no extra charge they have a policy that makes it so you can't leave your pet even if it is crated for longer than a half hour. It made it so we couldn't bring our dog with us.

We are staying here again in February!

Overall, our experience at The Drury Plaza Hotel was excellent! The amenities included beat any hotel in the area. Our favorite part was the rooftop pool/hut tub with the city view. It was gorgeous! And the 5:30 kickback HH wasn't bad either. The staff was also very attentive and had great attitudes. My only complaint would be that the room was pretty small and had the smell of an older building (which it is). I would highly recommend the Drury. More for the money!

Best bang for the bucks!

3 free drinks and finger food included (kids could call it dinner). Free breakfast buffet with lots to choose from. Laundry facilities. Pool and hot tub on roof. All this and access to Riverwalk from basement! No streets to cross! Made my first trip to San Antonio memorable.

Lovely, Unique

Don't overlook this hotel! A remodeled bank building with some lovely art deco touches, the Drury Plaza has an exceptionally lovely lobby, a fine snacks and drink happy hour, and nice staff. Our room was very clean and comfortable-- a bit more spacious than usual. The location is a little less convenient than some other hotels. Good value for the cost.
