Nice but some surprises
A beautiful Hotel at the far end of the Riverwalk. Very nice well appointed room. The hotel restarant was outstanding - pricey but with a wonderful tasty menu. Two surprises. One a $30 charge for overnight valet parking ($15 across the street at a commercial lot). A false fire alarm that had the elevators shut down for 2 hours as we were preparing to depart. They suggested taking our lugage down 10 flights - tough for seniors Staff were quit pleasant.

Westin review
Great location and view on the RiverWalk. We love the look and feel of the place, but the service was not on top of things at all times. At these room prices, the service needs to be best in class. We had to call the desk and request our room to be cleaned and sheets changed. We felt they did not have enough valets/car attendants at the front door for guest pick-up & drop-off. The car port was jammed up often and they did not have enough people on staff to move them along to the garage. There was a fridge sitting in the hallway for an entire day and night. Details to some, but at these prices ...

"Where's the beef?"
Would of loved something thrown in other than the location...I was surprised they didn't charge for the soap. The front staff was a pleasure, the rest however was in dire need of customer service training. Any time we had made a request for anything we were detoured or ignored and I'm not asking for 5 star service but 4 would of been nice. I think I'll take the cheaper route next time and sacrifice aesthetics for substance.

Sightseeing tip:
Short walk from hotel
Anywhere away from the river-walk isn't a tourist trap and if u look u can find quality 24 hour cuisine.

Great Getaway for Couples
We went for our 20th wedding anniversary. We really enjoyed the RiverWalk. It was romantic, plenty to see and the activities we chose were within walking distance. The Market Square was very cool and we bought some great treasures. Folks in San Antonio were very friendly and helpful. The Westin was in the quieter neighborhood but certainly within walking distance of the hoopla. I loved the Aveda spa inside the hotel. They gave a great facial. A great trip!

In Hotel
The Zocco restaurant was so delicious. Order the goat cheese/ eggplant puree with crostinis. Very generous portions. The sweet vinegar/olive oil combo was wonderful! Also the linguini with chunk crab and a hint of lemon was awesome!

Zocca served breakfast which was very good,dinner also nice outside along the river.Hotel located on the quieter end of Riverwalk.Lobby was very spacious.Highly reccommend.

Enjoyable Stay
First time to stay on the Riverwalk. Loved being on the riverwalk. The hotel was at a medium walking distance from the main part of the riverwalk, which is nice for people that want a quieter less crowded location. A couple minor problems with the hotel as noted above but overall we enjoyed it.
