Disappointed stay
Called front desk after check-in to request a bath robe. Said it was on it's way and never arrived. Live music playing in the bar area went way too late. Tried calling valet to retrieve car and was busy after multiple attempts and had to wait at drive. Never saw a hotel attendant in the pool area where "many" used towels were on lounges. Given the price of rooms, meals, drinks, and parking this stay did not meet expectations.

Former Embassy suites hotel. Staff seems generally hospitality inexperienced. Telephone preset buttons do not work. Had to call to fix room elements; therefore executive housekeeping checklist is nonexistent: shower curtain, toiletries, carpet, stains, dust. Had to prompt for Expedia VIP benefits, so by the time I asked, it was too late to upgrade the room. Water must be requested. But staff was friendly though!

Perfection on the riverwalk
This was the most hospitable and friendly hotel we have stayed at in our travels. It is in a quieter area of the riverwalk which was nice. Our dogs were welcomed and loved on the whole time we were there. The room is soundproof and a perfect size/layout for a family. The drinks at the bar are delicious and nice to have a comfortable place to relax and rest between outings. The whole staff is by far the friendliest and most helpful of any hotel we have ever encountered. We had a wonderful Christmas vacation there.

We always stay at the Contessa when visiting San Antonio. It’s in a quieter, less touristy part of the Riverwalk but only a few minutes walk to be in the thick of things. The suites are spacious, the service is attentive, and the bar serves better margaritas than you’ll find at the Riverwalk restaurants.

Dissapointed
I am disappointed with my experience at Hotel Contessa. This was my first time staying and probably my last. For the amount of money I spent I expected more. The room temperature was very cold, when I called for maintenance I was told everyone was trying to heat their rooms and it would probably take two or more hours for the heat to kick in. The traffic could be heard through the walls as well as the other guests in the hotel. I was looking forward to a better stay because I had heard good things about Contessa, unfortunately that wasn't the case for my family and I.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Hotel took my money from Expedia and still charged me full price when I checked in, they refused to return the over payment. I would not recommend this hotel or booking service. The booking agent did not get my money back or even try. They said they are only allowed to make one call to the hotel and they did not answer. If you read this review, please warn as many people as you can not to use this hotel or booking service.
