We loved our stay at The Menger. I loved that other people were also walking around at night exploring and likely interested in the spooky aspect as well. That's kind of thing for me & my kids, and its nice when we dont feel like total weirdos for doing it! haha I do have to note that the little interactions I had with the staff while staying, they were pretty snooty and seemed annoyed by my presence. Thankfully those interactions were little to none. But it would have been nice to have people be nice and accepting to you when you're spending as much money as I did to stay there.

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. It was nice, quiet, and walkable to the river walk and literally right next door to the Alamo. If you stay here get the address to the entrance (where the valet is) from the hotel in advance. The address online will take you to a spot that inaccessible by car.

I liked the valet parking, not too crowded, what I didn’t like was the bed situation, they were to small, it didn’t even feel like we were in a full more like a twin and for 2 grown adults that was way too small, the construction starting at 8 in the morning was the worse, we couldn’t sleep in so we got up and checked out early
