InterContinental San Antonio Riverwalk Hotel Opens

Guestroom at the InterContinental San Antonio Riverwalk Hotel

Yesterday, InterContinental Hotels & Resorts announced the opening of the InterContinental San Antonio Riverwalk Hotel. The 390-room hotel features more than 18,000 square feet of meeting space, four new restaurants and bars.

Located one mile from the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center and steps away from the city’s famed River Walk, the 21-story hotel is within walking distance of many of the city’s attractions, including The Alamo, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, as well as The Pearl and La Villita Historic Village. The hotel also provides guests with direct access to a water taxi landing zone, granting them an alternative mode of transportation along the tranquil waterways.

The InterContinental San Antonio Riverwalk embodies the vibrant culture and rich heritage of San Antonio,” said Stefan Gruvberger, General Manager. “Whether you’re a local seeking a cultivated retreat or a visitor eager to explore our city’s charms, the hotel’s luxury accommodations and amenities offer something for everyone.”

Owned by Trailbreak Partners in conjunction with Scarlett Hotel Group, the hotel is equipped with a rooftop pool, 24-hour in-room dining, on-site valet, a dedicated house car, a 24-hour state-of-the-art fitness center, and a Club InterContinental Lounge, to name a few of the high-end amenities.

Meetings & Events

The hotel’s 18,000 square feet of event space — directly accessible via the valet area — includes the magnificent 8,200-square-foot Pecan Ballroom replete with 18-foot ceilings, flexible conference areas, an intimate boardroom outfitted with the latest A/V technology, and 10 meeting rooms that all feature built-in food and beverage stations and panoramic views of San Antonio.

Design

Designed by Leo A Daly, the overall aesthetic blends mid-century architecture and modern finishes with subtle nods to the organic textures and materials of San Antonio. Plush velvet furniture in various pops of color offset the property’s neutral color palette, and the hotel comes to life through the rich finishes crafted from brass, marble, dark wood, cognac leather, and glass. Situated behind the arrivals desk is an abstract contemporary work of Joan Crawford, an homage to her 1954 American Western film Johnny Guitar. The concierge gallery is a curated showcase of local products, artisans, and activities, adding a special touch to the hotel’s décor and connecting guests to the city.

Culinary

In conjunction with Heartwood Hospitality, the hotel boasts four unique restaurant and bar concepts, led by Executive Chef Andres Farias, who will also oversee creative direction for in-room dining services and catering operations.

To celebrate the occasion, the InterContinental San Antonio Riverwalk is extending a special limited-time offer available until December 30, 2024, which includes complimentary parking and a $50 food and beverage credit per night.

The opening is part of IHG Hotels & Resorts’ 2024 development pipeline in Texas, which includes 15 new properties across eight brands.

The InterContinental San Antonio Riverwalk is located at 111 E. Pecan Street.
