Like any modern, burgeoning city you can find a host of big-name hotels downtown, close to amenities, places to wine and dine and all the city's major sights. Enjoy comfort and convenience near the city's famous Riverwalk in such San Antonio hotels as the Hotel Contessa, Crowne Plaza Hotel and the San Antonio Marriott Riverwalk Hotel.

If you would like something a little more modestly priced, San Antonio is simply packed with mid-priced and budget hotels that won't break the bank. While many of San Antonio's cheaper hotels are located a little further from the main attractions, the city's excellent transport system will have you there in no time. That said, there are some San Antonio hotel bargains to be found downtown, too.

If you want to stay somewhere really historic, you could consider The Fairmont Hotel. Built over a century ago, it entered the record books in 1985 for being one of the biggest structures to be moved intact. Conveniently, its new location is just a few minutes' walk from the Alamo, San Antonio's biggest attraction.

And that is just a taste of what San Antonio hotels have to offer. You will also find countless motels, Bed & Breakfasts, and resorts and spas dotted around the city.

What makes this Texas gem different from so many other cities is the variety of places to stay in Antonio. While downtown and the Riverwalk are unique and beautiful, they are matched by the surrounding countryside.

For those who like a little peace and quiet, options include the area's many campsites and cabins. Long-stay visitors to San Antonio often opt for a vacation home rental. If you really want to get out into the country, there is a choice of guest ranches in the area. Enjoy down-home comfort, a relaxed atmosphere, good food and breathtaking nature. You can even bring your own horse!

Like so many things in this unique city, San Antonio hotels and accommodation will not disappoint.
