"Not to be confused with the Fairmont luxury hotels, this is a small San Antonio original, independently owned and one of a kind."

"Small and unassuming. You could almost walk by and miss the exclusive digs at the Fairmount. Good thing, too. Who wants others to notice?"

"Location is a big selling point for this hotel, in a quiet section of the river but still steps away from the entertainment district."

Many rooms share balconies or verandas looking out on the river—be sure to request a river-view room.

"One of the best historic hotels in San Antonio and a charming counterpoint to the big chain links here, this property began as a modest Catholic boarding school in 1852."
