You can walk to downtown San Antonio and dozens of local Southtown restaurants in Lavaca and King William, as well as a Family Dollar store. The grocery store is .8 miles away. You can walk or scooter downtown to the Riverwalk or tourist attractions. The Hemisfair, which includes the fantastic splash pad park for kids, is less than a half a mile away.

The Alamodome is 9/10ths of a mile or about a 20 minute walk to the entrance.

Guests are walking just steps from restaurants such as The Battalion, Rosario’s, Maverick, Bliss, Cascabel, Pharm Table, Senor Veggies, my favorite sandwich shop The Filling Station. ... and too many others to list!

Also steps away are great bars such as The Friendly Spot, Bar America, the historic Rathskeller, Beethoven’s old German hangout and many more! There are too many attractions nearby to list them all. Steel City Pops is a stone’s throw away if you want some sweets instead, and there is a coffee shop just steps away from the front door (Brown Coffee Shop). The Pharm Table is a delicious restaurant steps away, with brunch. Rosarios, also steps away, is a classic.

The Hemisfair has a new children's park with a fun splash pad, just a block north of us. Civic Park just opened as well, with a beautiful lawn and water features that kids and adults can splash in.

You are so close to a dozen restaurants, and a bit further is the RiverWalk with too many to list!
