Marriott Plaza San Antonio a four diamond hotel of distinction Thank you for considering the Marriott Plaza San Antonio! We would like to introduce you to our beautiful hotel. Nestled amid 6.5 acres of lush gardens in the heart of historic downtown San Antonio, the Marriott Plaza San Antonio is a destination in itself. Reflecting the spirit and culture of Texas’ most historic and romantic city, the Marriott Plaza has the appeal of a resort, the amenities and services of a four-diamond hotel and offers many options for the sophisticated traveler. Colorful Chinese pheasants and peacocks wander the grounds among fountains and native Texas greenery. Historic buildings hint at the multicultural roots of San Antonio, while the famed River Walk is just steps away. While our hotel is centered in the heart of downtown, our guests agree that the secluded atmosphere makes it a truly special attraction. In fact, our 251 luxury hotel rooms are only half of the story. Guests who choose the Marriott Plaza San Antonio as the site for a wedding celebration or other special event find that our elegant and eclectic décor, creative cuisine and superb service make it the essential ingredient for a memorable event. Opened as a hotel in 1979, the Marriott Plaza was originally called the Plaza Nacional. Soon after, it became the Four Seasons and operated as such until the late 1980’s. In 1995, the hotel became part of the Marriott family and operated as the Plaza San Antonio, A Marriott Hotel. In 2005, the hotel underwent a six million dollar renovation and formally became the Marriott Plaza San Antonio. Today, the Marriott Plaza San Antonio is celebrated for its 251 luxury hotel rooms and over 16,000 square feet of event space. The perfect headquarters for business or pleasure, our hotel and ambience are indicative of the charm and beauty of the city itself incorporating a collection of 19th century buildings, courtyards, fountains and gardens. In fact, five buildings on the property have been completely restored and are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The architecture of these structures reminds of our heritage and echoes the spirit of bygone days. Aside from our looks, our hotel offers guests many extraordinary amenities including a health club, outdoor pool and whirlpool with cabanas, two lighted tennis courts and croquet lawn. And, of course, visitors who want to experience all the city has to offer can enjoy many wonderful destinations within walking distance. We are bordered on one side by La Villita (Old Town) and on the other by the Victorian mansions of the King William Historic District. The Henry B. Gonzales Convention Center is across the street in HemisFair Plaza and, one block away, is the world famous River Walk complete with an array of boutiques, restaurants and nightclubs. Should biking be more your style, we also offer bicycles on a complimentary basis to our guests to explore the surrounding areas.
