Omni La Mansion del Rio
Spanish Colonial beauty overlooking the Riverwalk

Resembling a grand hacienda, the lobby of this seven-story Spanish Colonial hotel offers graceful archways, fresh flowers, and a winding, wrought-iron staircase. The hotel features beamed and molded ceilings, French doors, distinctive artifacts and tapestries, and brick-paved courtyard lush with trees and tropical greenery.

Omni La Mansion del Rio has a delightful tradition of placing magical boxes of worry dolls on pillows when turndown service is requested. Guests are instructed to place one doll for every worry they have under their pillows in order to awake the next morning worry-free. Other amenities include complimentary access to a nearby fitness center, an outdoor pool, and Las Canarias, the hotel's restaurant serving Southwest cuisine and a Sunday brunch.

Guests can pose for pictures on the quaint stone footbridge connecting Omni La Mansion to its sister hotel. It's a prime spot to take in the surrounding flora and fauna and passing riverboats. To view additional  photos of the hotel, click here.

Property Amenities

Omni La Mansión del Rio, located on San Antonio's River Walk, completed its multi-million dollar guestroom and lobby refurbishment in September 2007. New features include a hand-carved concierge desk and cabinets; an updated reception desk; granite, limestone, iron, and bronze furnishings; and iron ceiling fixtures. A mixture of paintings, photography, and Mexican folk art are displayed throughout the property.

A brick-paved courtyard and an outdoor heated pool with attendant service are on site. Las Canarias, a romantic and casual restaurant, offers Southwest cuisine.

Guests can take advantage of the business center and wireless Internet access throughout the hotel's public areas (surcharge for both). Guests have complimentary access to the 17,000-square-foot spa at the Watermark, a sister hotel, located across the footbridge. Candlelight, leather furnishings, and fragrant eucalyptus create a serene backdrop for the 19 treatment rooms and rooftop fitness center.
