Excellent romantic hotel. Close to River Walk. Good for sightseeing and located near shopping areas.
The Emily Morgan Hotel, official hotel of the Alamo, is next door to the historic Alamo, within walking distance of the San Antonio River Walk, and approximately 10 miles from San Antonio International Airport. Cited as one of the finest examples of Gothic Revival Architecture in America, the Emily Morgan hotel building served for a long period as a Medical Arts building. The building is designed by the famous San Antonio architect Ralph Cameron. In fact, if you look very closely, terra cotta gargoyles hanging over the ground floor windows, hint at toothaches and other medical maladies. The Emily Morgan is a non-smoking facility and features polished stone floors, Texas limestone, traditional mahogany furnishings, transparent stone fireplace, stainless-steel pool and spa tub, and fitness center. A library with fireplace adjoins the lobby. ORO Restaurant and Bar is a sophisticated restaurant that overlooks the gardens of the Alamo and serves Italian cuisine. Room service is available 24 hours daily.
Pets are welcome, and the restaurant offers a pet menu. All rooms are non-smoking and feature Aveda personal care products, feather-top beds, CD players, bathrobes, granite-topped desks, ergonomic chairs, multi-line phones, voicemail, turndown service, hairdryers, irons and ironing boards, and coffeemakers.
