Crockett Hotel

Good value with great ambiance

Prós: I have usually stayed at the Menger Hotel as I like the old fashioned ambiance of vintage hotels. I also love drinking in the Menger Bar where Teddy Roosevelt recruited his Rough Riders. The Crockett is right next door and has pretty much the same ambiance as the Menger but at almost half the price! I will be staying here from now on.

So comfortable

Prós: This is the second time I have chosen the Crockett hotel. It is a historic 7 story hotel. The hotel has been remodeled with fresh updated fixtures and appliances. These rooms are huge. You could do gymnastics in them. The staff is super friendly and actually happy to see you. Breakfast is typical eggs, waffels and such. The location is why you want stay here but the staff and hotel is why you will be back.

Content

Prós: Location was great. Staff was attentive. Spending time at the bar was a good day to end the day.

Breakfast was cold

Prós: The staff was very friendly

Prós: Nice rooms that appear to be recently remodeled. Great full breakfast every morning. Very centrally located close to The Alamo and Riverwalk. Staff are very kind and helpful too.

Contras: $25 parking charge per night

Second visit, looking forward to a third.

Prós: The hotel is a nice combination of modern and heritage. The location is perfect. Breakfast is far better than most.

Contras: The rooms are a little tight but due to the age of the hotel this is to be expected. I'd like to see some potatoes at the breakfast.
