Our Stay At Contessa
 | | Overall rating: |  | Value rating : | |
Our accommodations were wonderful and the off season cost per night was a great saving. All personel at the hotel were wonderful to us. Also when I made the reservation, the person I spoke to at Perfect Escapes was the BEST!

This Hotel Needs Help!
| | Overall rating: |  | Value rating : |  |
My wife and I wanted to get away for a night to celebrate her birthday and decided on the Contessa because of their advertised price and hotel rating. We have stayed in all of the nicest hotels in San Antonio and find this one to have the most problems. Our opinions are the river views are not the best. You can hear the street traffic from outside. It is very loud and makes it hard to sleep (sounded like we were in New York). The bedroom is small but has a large living area. A 27” TV sits on the desk with no room to sit and do work. Don’t put anything in the safe if you don’t want it to be melted, it gets very warm because it sits on top of the refrigerator. Don’t try and eat breakfast after 10:30am, the buffet will be picked up even though the menu states 11:00am. Don’t stay one minute after 11:00am or you will be asked to leave by an employee banging on the door (even if the “do not disturb” sign is on the door) saying he can do whatever we wants after 11:00am.

Hotel Contessa - Great Value
| | Overall rating: | | Value rating : | |
Great room, great price! We booked two king bed suites overlooking the Riverwalk and couldn't have been more satisfied. The service and the rooms exceeded our expectations. For the price we paid - "too good to be true" comes to mind.
We will book into this hotel again in the future.

Not As Expected
| | Overall rating: | | Value rating : |  |
I was surprised that the hotel was not as luxurious as the price would indicate. The toilet backed up, the shower curtain was not wide enough to compliment the new curved shower rod, ran out of kleanex, the rooms were small even though it was advertised as a suite, one of the waiters was rude, and overall not as expected for the price. Car was given to another customer by mistake, then returned to valet and was given another valet ticket. Surprised at the $25 a day for valet parking even though the car was not moved from the time of arrival to departure.

Romance on the River
| | Overall rating: | | Value rating : | |
My stay at the Contessa was fabulous. The rooms were spacious with great views of the River walk. The concierge was kind enough to get my party of four a table at Bourdeaux's across the street even though there was a 2 hour wait. My overall stay was quite enjoyable. I will be back.

Outstanding Service!

La Contessa was wonderful! Every individual we interacted with was incredibly pleasant and professional. Every employee asked us how they could help whenever we saw them. The room was very clean and beautiful. We overlooked the river and it was beautiful. The bed was VERY comfortable and the room was quiet and relaxing. We will return! Thank you for a relaxing and wonderful experience!

The Contessa Riverwalk San Antonio
| | Overall rating: | | Value rating : | |
Room was clean but not as grand as expected of a "luxury" hotel. Beds were very comfortable and the Aveda Spa was delightful. Valet parking fee was high at $25. Our room was rated as a Riverfront room but our view was primarily of the adjacent parking garage. Among the reasons we chose this hotel was for the pool and hot tub which closed for draining and repair. This type of maintenance is scheduled in advance and should have been disclosed prior to our booking. In general we had a nice experience but we were looking for a very high-end experience. The cost of our one night with all taxes and fees was just under $350. Having stayed at numerous hotels throughout the country, I would have expected to pay less than half of that for this type of hotel experience.
