5 star rating.

I booked my room through Hotels.com, and when we checked in, I believe they put us in the help/housekeeper's wing because when we went upstairs, I only saw one person on the floor. We offloaded our luggage and proceeded to the Menger bar, where the bartender asked the couple in front of us if they had been given a voucher for free drinks, so I went to the front desk. The manager says, "How did you book your room,as he was looking at his computer. Oh, you booked through hotels.com, you don't get drink vouchers." All I said was ok, thank you. I don't think the hotel would go bankrupt for giving the guest a voucher for a free drink. My room was spotless; my king-size bed was as hard as a boulder.

Comfy but “Historic”

The Menger has an amazing location: steps from the Alamo and the riverwalk. The hotel has beautiful common areas that show the hotel’s once grand station. My room, on the other hand, was dated and looked like an interstate motel room. The bed was comfortable but the bedspread and matching curtains came out of the 1960s. The bathroom was very tiny but adequate. The shower had minimal water pressure and the water temperature fluctuated wildly (like staying at someone’s home with multiple people flushing toilets). The reviews that mention the HVAC are true as they clearly state that the hotel has either cold are or hot are for everyone due to there being only one system. The hotel’s great location and price during Final Four weekend balanced out the inconveniences but I am not sure I would return if there were other options.

Although apologetic about delays for check-in and room service, requests for follow-up calls from front desk and housekeeping staff were largely either: absent or inattentive. Also, the dining options were limited and service was slow.
