Another wonderful stay at the Mokara! The hotel is gorgeous, the staff are wonderful, and the amenities are amazing. I love the views from the rooftop pool and the peace and quiet of the spa whirlpool and sauna. Fantastic room service food, too. The only issue with this visit was getting conflicting info from the spa staff about the different services' features and costs. Other than that, it was a perfect visit. We hope to come back soon!

We were told at checkin that this was a “full service” hotel so no ice machines on any floor. Just call and staff would bring ice. Most times, ice arrived within 10 minutes. On a couple of occasions, it took almost 30 minutes. We had to request cleaning services everyday-it was not automatic. For the price of the room, housekeeping should be a given. We toured the spa, and while nice, it is separate for men and women. Understandable since there is a clothing optional policy. While some guests may enjoy this, for my husband and me, we weren’t thrilled with sitting in a sauna, steam room or whirlpool with strangers. Would have preferred a spa where we could enjoy it together. Overall, the hotel is nice and conveniently located for all things associated with the Riverwalk.

Great boutique hotel right on the Riverwalk. Service is friendly and they aim for a very high-end level (no icemakers on the floors - call for ice). They fall a bit short on actual execution. If my phone isn't working and I've reported it three times, I can't get ice. Bathroom floor was bit spotty upon arrival. Wood work and furnishings in the common areas are starting to look a bit worn.

The actual standard of the hotel falls short of its appearance. The quality of the bed linen is quite disappointing, and the bed itself is very uncomfortable. Those accustomed to staying in luxury hotels may find certain aspects underwhelming. Additionally, the cleanliness of the restaurant leaves much to be desired.

Everyone was very friendly and the customer service was great. The room itself was very muggy and warm, even with the AC on 69. We asked for them to look at the room to see if that’s normal and I guess they did while we were gone, but nothing changed. So I’m not sure if the muggy wet stuffy feeling is normal for each room or if it was just ours. Otherwise it was a great stay and I can’t brag on the customer service enough.

Service was amazing, and the small portion of the hotel we saw, was very nice and clean. Room was very spacious and had some nice little added touches. It was also extremely clean, which was wonderful! Just be aware of what type of room you book, because our window faced a wall that was only a few feet away. You could not see the sky or anything other than the wall. So if a view is important to you, make sure you book a room that offers that.

A Truly Five-Star Experience in San Antonio! We came to San Antonio for a wild cowboy wedding and were so pleasantly surprised by our recent stay – it truly felt like a five-star experience rather than a four-star! From the moment we arrived, we were enveloped in a feeling of comfort and luxury that made our trip even more special. What truly set this hotel apart was the exceptionally friendly staff. Every interaction felt genuine and warm, making us feel like we were coming home each time we walked through the doors. The small talks and personal touches were incredibly appreciated. A special shout-out to Nicole at the front desk – she was an absolute gem! She remembered us every single time we came in, which added such a wonderful personal touch to our stay. We totally enjoyed every aspect of our visit and left feeling refreshed and incredibly well-cared for. We definitely will come back again.

Our stay got cut short as my son got sick. Unfortunately, we had to leave a day early. One would think that the manager would approve a refund for the one night that we did not stay at the hotel, but that was not the case. Instead, manager Christopher Blaha lied and said he would refund us, but in the end, that was just a lie to get me off the phone. VERY bad business Chirs. Me and my family travel all the time. I can assure you, we wont ever be staying at a Mokara Hotel ever again.

It’s a lovely boutique hotel located on the river walk in San Antonio. The rooms are excellent - everything from the comfortable bed to the stocked refrigerator to the daily water bottles provided to the spacious bathroom with separate spa tub and walk in shower. We had dinner one evening in your restaurant and we were not especially impressed. The waiter was clearly ‘green’ and needed more training. It took an unusually long time for our dishes to arrive once we ordered. We asked our waiter why and did not get a logical answer. He said our order was waiting in line in the kitchen, whatever that meant. We sat on the patio instead of inside and our waiter did not check to see if we needed anything such as another drink, while we waited. For the level of the restaurant and price of the meals I would have expected better service. ***One a positive note, the female bartender made killer chocolate martinis.

Had a very pleasant stay at the Mokara. Staff is truly excellent and very welcoming. Hotel appearance is dated but not shabby or worn at all. Room was very comfortable (with terrible view of parking lot but you get what you pay for!). Rate was very good value. Breakfast was prompt and tasty. Ostra restaurant unfortunately has a pretty persistent smell of fish which I did not appreciate at breakfast! Would definitely recommend a stay here.
