Hotel Valencia Riverwalk

We stayed here in February 2010 for a weekend. We had tickets to a show at the Majestic Theater and chose the Valencia because it is only a block down Houston. We got the Theater lovers' package, which included dinner at Citrus. (Reservations were still required at Citrus, even though we had booked the package, FYI.) Only complaint about Citrus was that the tables are way too close to each other. We sat near a table of four and it felt like we were all at the same table. Not conducive to intimacy. Hotel itself is beautiful. Yes, it is dark, but that is the atmosphere they are going for. I don't recommend this hotel for kids, although we saw some kids staying there. The bed was nice and comfy, the bathroom nicely appointed and everything was immaculately clean. We used the valet parking, which is free if you eat in Citrus. Very prompt when we called for our car. The hotel is on the "deserted" end of the San Antonio Riverwalk, meaning, very quiet. If you want more excitement, or to be closer to the fun on the RW, then stay elsewhere. But for quiet, the Valencia is the place to stay. It's a little more expensive than some other locations, but well worth it.

Absolutely beautiful hotel and great...

Disliked: We didn't realize there was no pool at the hotel which would have been nice since it was hot that weekend.

Old world experience in the...

Liked: It’s an elegant hotel in the heart of the city. I will definitely stay there again and plan to spend more time within the space! Being in the hotel IS a vacation in itself because of the “old world” ambiance they created -especially the court yards and patios!
Disliked: Nothing ….

Passable

Liked: Nice property and good location.
Disliked: The front office staff is very dishonest about the “resort charge” of $18 per day which can be used as a credit at the coffee shop. You can’t use it for coffee the morning you check out - it’s for the day before. The employee agreed that was unfair and he would take it off the bill. He then printed the receipt & it was still there so I gave up. Valet parking is $55 per night- ouch.

Superb
