Hotel Valencia Riverwalk

We stayed here in February 2010 for a weekend. We had tickets to a show at the Majestic Theater and chose the Valencia because it is only a block down Houston. We got the Theater lovers' package, which included dinner at Citrus. (Reservations were still required at Citrus, even though we had booked the package, FYI.) Only complaint about Citrus was that the tables are way too close to each other. We sat near a table of four and it felt like we were all at the same table. Not conducive to intimacy. Hotel itself is beautiful. Yes, it is dark, but that is the atmosphere they are going for. I don't recommend this hotel for kids, although we saw some kids staying there. The bed was nice and comfy, the bathroom nicely appointed and everything was immaculately clean. We used the valet parking, which is free if you eat in Citrus. Very prompt when we called for our car. The hotel is on the "deserted" end of the San Antonio Riverwalk, meaning, very quiet. If you want more excitement, or to be closer to the fun on the RW, then stay elsewhere. But for quiet, the Valencia is the place to stay. It's a little more expensive than some other locations, but well worth it.

Very good

Liked: The location is near the river walk where we wanted to visit.
Disliked: There's a lot of hidden fees. Other charges were not shown at the mobile app. Why should a tourist shoulder taxes from city. It should have been shouldered by the business itself. We were scammed by the room price. We are not using this hotel again.
