El Tropicano Riverwalk Hotel is synonymous with San Antonio. Opening in 1962, “El Trop,” as it’s affectionately known, was the first hotel on San Antonio’s River Walk. Our 308-room urban oasis was inspired by the casual elegance of Acapulco's beach resorts and quickly became a draw for Hollywood’s elite, rock stars, trendsetters --- and one famous Texan who kicked up his boots in the Oval Office.
Step through our grand entrance to discover a thoroughly modern ambience, with delightful nods to the glittering, jet set 1950’s. Seated in the heart of the River Walk’s Museum Reach, we’re just minutes from San Antonio’s best riverfront shopping and restaurants, the Alamo, the River Walk’s South Bank, Market Square, HemisFair Park and the Tower of the Americas. Downtown’s exciting attractions are also a short walk, trolley or river taxi ride away, with El Tropicano guests enjoying hop-on/hop-off access.
Modern rooms offer free Wi-Fi and flat-screen TVs, plus desks, minifridges and coffeemakers. Upgraded rooms add balconies, microwaves and/or river views. Bright 1-bedroom suites feature living rooms with sofabeds. Club level suites have access to a rooftop terrace.
Amenities include a colorful cafe, a buffet-style restaurant, and a tiki bar offering a terrace with river views. There's also a gym, a fire pit and an outdoor pool. Parking is extra.
