Not much room at all in the pool area Nothing was explained about the vouchers and stay, we were told we had two vouchers and two tokens for the bar. The voucher for the restaurant was not clear and I still got charged for it. They did. It have enough trolleys for anyone, nor was there enough space for driving to the office area. Two hotels so tightly together made it very difficult for driving/checking in.

Highly Recommend!

Kimpton was an amazing hotel! Starting with Dj with the valet, he took care of us promptly and kept taking care of us all night as we needed! Then Pete the Bellman, helped with unloading our vehicle so quickly and carefully and took everything up to the room for us with ease and then continuing to take care of us all night, including some of the best conversations we’ve had! Then moving into the receptionist whether it was Moore, Zoey or Richard they all provided exceptional service! Ensuring we knew exactly what we were getting into and there being zero surprises! We would highly recommend Kimpton, if you are looking for a professional atmosphere that is both pet and family friendly!

Really good new hotel

Really lovely new hotel. Everything about the hotel is very high quality and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The only negatives are the polished concrete flooring in the guest rooms which is an entirely personal opinion, my husband quite likes it but I found it cold and hard underfoot. The second negative is the amount of building work that’s going on in the area although this will be a positive once it’s finished. Like all kimptons the social hour between 5-6pm is a nice touch. I would also recommend Deans restaurant for an excellent steak dinner with impeccable food and service. All in all this is a really good hotel as a base when visiting San Antonio.
