"While demanding travelers will want to stick with the usual suspects—Westin, Menger, Hotel Valencia and Omni La Mansion del Rio, budgeters looking for value cannot go wrong here. " Full review

"The location couldn't be better for guests doing business downtown. It is also ideal for those visiting historic city sights."

Ask for a room with a terrace overlooking the river.

"Both the grand high-ceilinged design and the prime location are not what you’d expect from moderately priced digs, where a hot breakfast and happy-hour snacks and drinks are included in the room rate. " Full review
