San
Antontio's Riverwalk Inn is San Antonio's most unique bed and
breakfast inn. Sitting on the banks of the famous San Antonio
Riverwalk we are just a few minutes walk from all the excitement that
the River City has to offer, but you will probably just want to hang
around the inn enjoying its ambience and basking in "country
elegance".
Follow the old Mission Trail along the banks
of the San Antonio River to the spot where authentic 19th century tow
story log homes stand nestled among native pecan and poplar trees.
Five, two-story log homes, relocated from Tennessee have
been combined to form the two buildings of the Riverwalk Inn. The log
homes were built from cottonwood trees which mean "Alamo" in
Spanish and date c.1842 (six years after the Battle of the Alamo). The
homes were brought to San Antonio log by log an reconstructed to their
original authenticity. It is the Riverwalk Inn's mission to have our
guests relive the history of the old San Antonio, through the
lifestyle of our Tennessee brothers, Davy Crockett and James Bowie...
who fought for Texas independence at the Battle of the Alamo. Each of
our guest rooms has been named in honor of these heroic people. The
Riverwalk Inn, decorated in period antiques creates an ambience of "country
elegance."
Under the twinkling stars on a warm Texas
evening, relax on the Porch, sip a cool glass of freshly squeezed
lemonade and hear a story teller weave tales of a bygone era. During
the winter months, curl up beneath a cozy Early American quilt and
gaze at the flames as they crackle and dance from the hearth of your
private fireplace.
Rock 'til you drop on our eighty foot
porch lined with rocking chairs. Enjoy Aunt Martha's evening desserts
and local story tellers that join us for our expanded continental
breakfast. Room amenities include: fireplaces, refrigerators, private
baths, phones, balconies, TV and Conference room. A Texas tradition
with a Tennessee flavor awaits you at the Riverwalk Inn.
The
charming Riverwalk Inn, located within walking distance of the
business district and major San Antonio attractions, sustains the
tranquility of a neighborhood residence and the accessibility of
services for the tourist or business traveler.
