What guests think

Across recent stays at Candlewood Suites San Antonio Downtown by IHG, guests often praise clean, comfortable rooms with full kitchens, while others report inconsistent housekeeping, occasional pests, and maintenance issues that sometimes affect Wi‑Fi, climate control, or overall comfort.

Facilities like a clean pool and free laundry are appreciated, although the hot tub has been out of order or restricted at times. Staff are frequently described as friendly and helpful, but some experienced rude or unavailable front-desk responses and slow problem handling. The location works well for reaching downtown and the River Walk, but some found dining scarce nearby and mentioned safety concerns after dark. Expect practical, apartment-style convenience with uneven execution.

The heater in my room worked fine for a few hours or so but then set off my smoke alarm at 3:45am and smelled of burning plastic. When I told the staff at the front desk, they asked if I was cooking something and did not move my room. I got to stay chilly the rest of the night until someone in the morning gave me a new room. I was also told I couldn\'t use the hot tub outside because it was "too cold". I was surprised that I wasn\'t allowed to make my own decisions of when to use a working amenity I\'m paying for. The kitchenette was helpful and the location was close enough to downtown and the highway but I think the building needs some updates overall.

Not terrible but our room stank and they said they would clean it and never did. Couldn’t place the smell and had to keep the window open the entire time. Hot tub out of order and pool dirty and cold. Area around the hotel has very little dining and no bars or entertainment. Homeless encampment across the road from the hotel. Not a safe area to walk after dark.

The property was sufficiently distant from downtown that traffic wasn't a big issue. There were limited dining options nearby, although the unit did include a mini-kitchen and there was an HEB a short drive away. Staff unfailingly friendly. Well-stocked shop. Good-sized unit.

Really disappointed with the stay here. To start AC wasn’t working and told no more rooms move(then magically found one after she saw herself ac not working after some hours but told I can move but can’t watch tv and no curtains), then not enough toilet paper, no chair (when asked for a chair for the desk told by front manager she doesn’t know where those are),main coffee machine stopped working next day and not fixed for entire trip, bed unstable as one of the legs of the bed was damaged ( they took some cardboard coasters and put under it. Now, seeing additional charge after leaving to my card for additional night(card was charged at check in for entire stay), waiting to see what happens. Chris the general manager seems helpful but still waiting to see the outcome.

Cleanliness

Feedback is split: many found rooms and common areas clean, while others reported dirty bathrooms or rooms and multiple mentions of roaches. Housekeeping during short stays appears limited, leading to no towel refresh or bed-making for some.

ROACHES!!!! I turned on the light upon entering my room and roaches scattered in the kitchen area. I immediately went back to the front desk and asked for another room on another floor. This was done, but not one word of apology was uttered for the filth or the inconvenience. Never ever again. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

The beds were nice the location was not hard to get to and there are things located close by. But we saw one too many roaches in both of the rooms we paid for. For a place that has kitchenette’s seeing cockroaches is a little concerning

Customer Service was perfect. However, I never realized how much I depend on a tv for a news source until we didn’t have one on this trip. Ask for a room that does not have a Vizio tv.

It was a great stay! My husband and I loved it. The beds and pillows are really comfortable. Their comforters are really warm. We loved being able to make our own food and have our own tiny kitchen. There were no obnoxious neighbors. The cleaning lady knocked once to check if we needed anything. The staff was polite. Will definitely stay here again!

Great bed, full kitchen, large room, 4 blocks from riverwalk then 30 minutes to Alamo and main riverwalk area. Quiet. Great wifi in hall and downstairs. Limited to no wifi in 4th floor room for entire week. If you need wifi, check actual service before room assignment. Every day front desk said no one else complained, but people we talked to had limited service also. In spite of this would stay again.

When i booked the room i was listed as pet friendly. After I checked in and sign in and given the room key. I was told that after three strikes a ( complaints) gaist my pet we would have to leave ghe hotel and look for some where else to stay. The young lady was not friendly at all. I told her that if i would have known that , i wouldn't have booked there. We stayed to nights, every time we came in or left , she wouldn't even say have a good day, hello or look at us. Just very rude customer service.

This is not a Candlewood suites but an extended stay. You dont get housekeeping AT ALL unless you stay 7 days. No staff on site at all hardly and they do not care about the guests at all.

They have it listed on hotels.com that there’s breakfast which is one of the main reasons I picked this place since there’s not restaurants in area. Really pissed me off. If breakfast is not included they really need to adjust the price could’ve save $100 staying next door that’s why I’m rating it so low. Oh and it’s $81 for your dogs
