About The Gunter Hotel, San Antonio Riverwalk, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel
The Gunter Hotel San Antonio Riverwalk, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel San Antonio is located in downtown San Antonio and across the street from the scenic San Antonio River Walk. After undergoing a $50 million renovation, the new iteration of the 116 year old hotel is modernized with new bathrooms, mid-century inspired fixtures, rich color palates and more. As a nod to Blues legend Robert Johnson, who recorded his first album at the hotel in 1936, each room is equipped with a record player and a copy of his first record. The hotel also features a vinyl library in the lobby that guests can take advantage of during their stay. This revitalization includes four new dining and bar concepts, a cutting-edge recording studio, and modern amenities while preserving the Gunter's rich heritage and historic significance. Guests can begin the day with a morning workout in the fitness center, or take a refreshing swim in the heated pool. For banquets and conferences, Gunter Hotel offers over 20,000 square-feet of meeting space. A unique 1920’s style barber shop is also available on-site. The Gunter Hotel, famously known as the center of everything, is less than a mile away from the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center and across the street from the Majestic Theater.

Very good

Fully enjoyed our stay and will be back.

Every encounter with their staff was pleasant, professional and friendly. The lobby was cozy and welcoming but the biggest surprise was the turntable in the room with a Robert Johnson album and the library of albums downstairs. The location also made it easy to walk to a variety of restaurants and the Majestic Theater across the street. The best part of our visit was the Paris Baguette Bakery Cafe on the first floor. Simply delightful.

Beautiful hotel. Great staff (front desk, bar, speakeasy, and restaurant). Loved the vinyl collection. The room I stayed in was updated but not enough counterspace in the bathroom.
