I was there in Jan. three years ago. I believe we stayed at the Hyatt..straight across from the Alamo (a block, or so). We could see it from the hotel front. We were on the River Walk...just went down an elevator. No clue what it cost...was there with DH who was there for a work convention. His work picked up the tab for the room. It was wonderful...I was very impressed with San Antonio and would love to go there again.
