“This downtown landmark impressively blends a rich history, reflected in its 1909 renovation and National Register listing, with contemporary comforts such as modernized rooms and complimentary Wi-Fi; the speakeasy bar, a tribute to blues legend Robert Johnson, offers a uniquely atmospheric experience. Its location near the River Walk and Alamo makes it ideal for exploring, while its extensive meeting spaces cater to business needs. I found it a property of character.”
