Reviews
The hotel is highly praised for its staff's exceptional service and friendly demeanor. The location on the Riverwalk and the spa facilities are also frequently complimented. However, some guests have reported issues with room cleanliness and maintenance, as well as minor inconveniences such as the lack of ice machines on floors and delayed housekeeping services.

From check-in to check-out, our stay at the Mokara Hotel & Spa was simply amazing! The staff was pleasant, polite, helpful, and went out of their way to make our stay comfortable. Our room was absolutely beautiful, spotless, and fully stocked with all the amenities we needed. Room service was prompt, and I especially loved that they served brunch. I’m definitely not a morning person, so I didn’t have to feel guilty about sleeping in and worrying that I had missed breakfast! 😊 As wonderful as everything else was, the spa was definitely the highlight of my stay! My massage therapist, Caesar, was absolutely amazing, one of the best massages I’ve ever had! I would definitely recommend the Mokara Hotel &

I'm so glad we found this gem! It's a Boutique style Hotel with all the Amenities. We were treated so well by everyone. The room was spacious and house keeping made our beds and refilled our towels. Anytime we had a question, needed something or simply walked by the staff was there to help. My kids loved the fresh cookies and apples next to the elevator. They have valet parking as the hotel is within walking distance of everything! The Rooftop pool and hot tub were perfect. The hotel has a Rooftop Cafe and Bar as well as a restaurant downstairs which we enjoyed.

My dad and aunt and uncle also stayed at the hotel and raved about it endlessly and have promised to stay there again (we will as well!). The rooms were gorgeous, well appointed, and clean. Very comfortable beds and I loved the toiletries. The valet staff and front desk were on top of everything. We had to leave stupid early every morning and they had our vehicle ready and waiting for us every single time we needed it. And the cookies!! Yum!! And thanks for all the cold waters. And I have to mention how awesome the showers were!! Best water pressure in a hotel ever. Access to the Riverwalk made exploring what San Antonio has to offer easy.

I grew up in San Antonio and was in town visiting family during my stay. It's been a long time since I've ventured into the touristic heart of my hometown, let alone stayed there, but I'm very glad I gave Mokara a chance. Everything about my stay at Mokara impressed me. I think a good hotel is one where things just feel easy and effortlessly comfortable, and the Mokara staff accomplishes that objective with aplomb. From the front desk to the valet counter to the restaurant staff, everyone seemed to somehow know my name from the moment I arrived. Requests were accommodated promptly, accurately and with a smile. Further, lots of little details were present that I would normally only expect at a higher price point. One nice example: the ice bucket in my room was always filled with fresh ice whenever I returned. It's a small thing, but it suggests a high level of overall attention to detail and care for the guest experience. The unexpected interior design eschews the usual sleek, contemporary feel embraced by most new-ish upscale hospitality venues and leans into a warm, traditional aesthetic reminiscent of some of San Antonio's vaunted older hotels. It works surprisingly well. The feeling is unpretentious and rooted in regional vernacular, but without feeling like an "Old West" cartoon. In general I found this hotel understated, relaxed (and relaxing), and very comfortable. I'll be back.

Beautifully appointed and a great location right on the river walk. I didn’t use the spa services but I peeked in and it was clean and had a luxury look. The bathtub in the room was so nice to have. They will even draw the bath for you! There is nothing I didn’t like.

As nice as having separate spa facilities is, a little redundant if the everyone is wearing swimwear. At this point the change rooms/showers could be separate and joint spa facilities.

Hotel is pretentious and overpriced. Was told I could check-in at a certain time. When I arrive to the hotel after that time they told me the room still wasn’t ready. I spent $1800 for two nights you think you’d get better customer service than that. Wasn’t offered complimentary wine service like I saw the other guests getting. Valets weren’t very friendly and seemed bothered the one time I asked them to get my truck for me. I’d look for other more affordable options on the Riverwalk before I stayed here again.
- 3/5
Loved the location, but our balcony room looking out over the Riverwalk wasn't ready when we tried to check in at 4:50pm. The excused was that we had a balcony room. So i guess the best & most expensive rooms are cleaned last? We were told it was being inspected by mgt. Then made to wait 20 more mins while they checked ppl in and out. I finally had to interupt then to get our rook key. So frustrating....

We were really blown away by the Mokara. The staff from concierge to valet to spa to housekeeping could not have been more lovely. The room was wonderful as well, although the room heat didn't seem responsive on our last day (it was November and maybe the hotel heat wasn't turned on yet?). The bed was stupendously comfortable (to the point where we looked it up). We didn't realize we got spa access with the room - that alone is a HUGE bargain. Yes, the valet is expensive but there are in/out privileges and in the end we were happy we paid for it. The location is amazing, especially if you are overlooking the riverwalk.

It was an annual birthday visit. Prosecco and a nice dessert plate waited in our room. We sat on the balcony and watched the riverwalk boats amble by while enjoying our wine that evening. Our room was clean, the staff is always wonderful, new soaker tub in the bathroom is amazing. It is a treat we look forward to every year—and we have never been disappointed!
