SAN ANTONIO — A landmark of central San Antonio is feeling the love with travelers.
Hotel Emma, located at the Pearl just north of downtown, was named one of the top 10 U.S. hotels in TripAdvisor’s 2019 Traveler’s Choice Awards. The Alamo City gem slotted in at No. 8 on the list, sandwiched between Chicago’s Peninsula Chicago and the Trump International Hotel in the capital.
Topping the list is French Quarter Inn in Charleston, South Carolina. The winners are determined based off an aggregation of reviews from tourists and travelers.
As far as what folks from out of town love about Hotel Emma, proximity to the River Walk and the building’s ambiance got it high marks.
“The décor is carefully curated to present a bygone era, that of a 19th-century brewhouse. I found the place quite unconventional and yet very apt for a modern-day luxury stay,” one reviewer wrote.
