Design and Location

El Tropicano Riverwalk, located in Downtown San Antonio, Texas, features a design inspired by Acapulco's beach resorts. It is a 20-minute walk from Southern Pacific Passenger and 20 km from San Antonio International.

Nearby Landmarks

The hotel is near the Briscoe Western Art Museum (1 km), the Vietnam Veterans Memorial of San Antonio (0.5 km), the San Antonio Museum of Art (1 km), Ripley's Believe It or Not (1 km), La Villita Historic Arts Village (1 km), The Buckhorn Saloon and Texas Ranger Museum (0.5 km), Henry B Gonzalez Convention Center (1 km), the San Antonio River Walk (0.5 km), Spanish Governor's Palace (1 km) and Tower of the Americas (2 km).

Dining at Mangos

Breakfast, and dinner are served at the hotel's restaurant, Mangos, which offers American cuisine and Latin cuisine.

River Walk Activities

Guests can stroll the lush riverside paths lined with Cypress trees, restaurants, hotels, shops, museums, and recreation spots. Boat rides, attractions, and other activities have various costs associated with them. The San Antonio River Walk produces nearly two dozen free festivals, parades, and events each year, including the St Patrick's Day Parade and Festival, Mardi Gras Parade, Festival and Gala, Armed Forces River Parade, Parade of Lanterns, Royalty Coronation, Haunted River Parade & Festival, and the Ford Mariachi Festival. You can also view the San Antonio River Walk's very own Love Lock Bridge inspired by Pont des Arts in Paris.

Area Entertainment

Merkaba is a cocktail lounge and nightclub that embraces drink flavors and decor inspired by the deep history of San Antonio. The Magik Theatre, San Antonio's professional family theatre, is located downtown in Hemisfair park.

“The El Tropicano distinguishes itself with a vibrant, Acapulco-inspired aesthetic and prime Riverwalk location. I think its biggest draw is the quieter environment, despite being on the Riverwalk, with comfortable rooms and exceedingly helpful staff creating a relaxing, convenient base for exploring San Antonio's cultural heart.”
