Hotel at a Glance: Kimpton Santo San Antonio - Riverwalk

The newly-opened Kimpton Santo San Antonio – Riverwalk is a masterclass in preserving history while embracing contemporary luxury. The property brilliantly merges a sleek 10‐story mid‐rise with a lovingly restored 1858 German–English schoolhouse—now home to Dean’s Steak & Seafood and a courtyard bar nestled among century old live oaks. Every corner of this hotel bears the architectural grace of missionary artistry and Spanish influenced décor, proudly honoring its namesake, Saint Anthony. But this is more than heritage in stone—it’s a living celebration of downtown energy and Southtown’s rich artistic spirit. Reimagined with the city’s only year-round, open-air rooftop lounge with uninterrupted 360 views of vibrant downtown, stylish rooftop cabanas, eight historic suites with original stone and semi-private balconies, Kimpton Santo offers an experience steeped in local pride. It’s a place that venerates the essence of San Antonio’s past while delivering all the elegance and comfort expected of a premier luxury stay.

San Antonio, TX: Where History Marches with the Present

San Antonio stands as a living chronicle of American heritage—a city where centuries-old missions whisper stories of colonial ambition, and cobblestone pathways along the River Walk reflect a legacy shaped by Spanish, Mexican, and Texan influences. Home to The Alamo, the iconic site of the 1836 battle for Texan independence, San Antonio proudly bears the weight of its past with dignity and reverence. Its historic downtown is anchored by time-honored architecture, tree-lined plazas, and a cultural tapestry as rich and diverse as the people who shaped it.

Yet San Antonio is no relic. It pulses with modern energy, offering visitors a unique blend of heritage and innovation. From the thriving arts scene in Southtown and the Pearl District’s culinary renaissance to festivals like Fiesta and the cutting-edge installations at the San Antonio Museum of Art, the city continuously redefines what it means to be timeless. Whether you’re savoring Tex-Mex beneath wrought-iron balconies or gazing from a rooftop bar at sunset over the Missions, San Antonio extends more than a welcome—it offers a passage through time.

Give Mateo a raise Mateo in the valet needs to train Zoe at the front desk. I come to San Antonio regularly for hair appointments and began staying here. Great rooftop bar, cute hotel and competitive price point. For me, I travel frequent and prefer hotels where the staff enjoy their jobs and are happy to be there. Everyone at this property is so happy and kind, although I did have an experience here this time with a very negative girl at the front desk… didn’t smile, had a rude attitude, when I wanted to extend my stay a night she had me pack up all my things refusing to let me stay in the same room…another employee made an edit and let me stay in the same room with no problem. When I called and asked Zoe to send a bell cart to my room she did not, I had to go down and arrange it myself.

Great Custimer Service I hosted a meeting at the Kimpton Santo today and both Ken and Isaac helped me get set up. They were both eager to help and extremely kind. I would definitely book here again. Thanks, gentlemen!

Disappointing Stay at Kimpton Santo Nowhere Near “Luxury” We chose Kimpton Santo expecting an upscale, boutique experience in San Antonio but it was anything but that. No Guest Priority: Most luxury hotels with popular bars or restaurants offer reserved areas for hotel guests. Not here expect to stand at the bar with the general public at the rooftop bar, even as a hotel guest. Valet Nightmare: Valet is $70 per night, and each time we requested our car, it took 30+ minutes to get it. For a supposedly high-end property, this kind of delay is unacceptable. Poor Room Conditions: The room had a noticeable, unpleasant smell that only disappeared after we dropped the AC to 69°. That shouldn’t be the solution in a hotel at this price point. Housekeeping & Service Failures: Our room was not serviced once during our stay despite being out from 9 AM to 5 PM and again from 6 PM to midnight. When I called the front desk (after several tries because no one answered), I requested water, coffee pods, and clean towels. Two hours later, nothing had arrived. We literally had to shower using towels that had been on the floor for over 24 hours. Poor Communication, Minimal Effort: When I mentioned all this at checkout, the staff was kind and apologetic and took $50 off our bill, but that small gesture doesn’t make up for the lack of luxury, efficiency, and basic hospitality throughout our stay. Bottom Line: The Kimpton Santo San Antonio is not a luxury experience. Between the disorganized valet, unresponsive staff, strange room odor, and nonexistent housekeeping, this hotel simply doesn’t live up to the Kimpton name. It’s giving understaffed, at the size of this property that’s unacceptable. Save yourself the frustration and book elsewhere.
