Sparkling clean! Stunning neighborhood with beautiful architecture and large trees. Blocks from downtown but you would never know because it’s so quiet. My room had a clawfoot tub and such a plush bed. The hot tub on the deck made the whole experience complete for me!

We spent Sunday and Monday nights at Brackenridge House after 5 nights camping at Guadalupe State Park. What a pleasure! The mattress was fabulous (I meant to sneak a peek at the make, so I could buy one for home). Everything we might need had been thought of and provided (body wash, shampoo, conditioner, Keurig coffee and decaf, cold water, small snack bags, etc). Lily (one of the hosts) welcomed us, gave us a map, made sure we understood our location, and explained the tv and door locks. The next two mornings she provided a lovely full breakfast which we enjoyed at a table on the front porch.
The neighborhood is lovely, access to the River Walk is two short blocks away, and there are many dining choices nearby. We parked the car on the property and never needed it until checkout. I hope we have an opportunity to stay here again!

Just returned from a wonderful trip to Brackenridge House for a couple days of playing tourist downtown. Had a great time, perfect location in the heart of the King William District. You can spend an entire day walking the streets and viewing the plantation homes and mansions.
Top recommendations after checking in:
King William Park and the Riverwalk are 2 blocks away. You can hop right on the Riverwalk trails for some exploring or a jog. Very beautiful. Downtown and the Rivercenter Mall are less than a mile away... you can just stay right on the Riverwalk trails and walking paths to reach everything.
The Pearl - a MUST DO... visit the Pullman Market, eat at Brasserie Mon Chou Chou for rustic French-prepared meals, and have an evening drink at the Hotel Emma bar.
St. Mary's and Southtown - BEST area for fun nightlife and memorable restaurants. Singhs Vietnamese food, Hot Joy (great fusion restaurant)
It was a pleasure meeting with Lily at Breckenridge House... We would HIGHLY recommend staying there for a few days to rest, recharge, relax, and visit the best that downtown San Antonio has to offer.

Our room was very clean and very comfortable. Having a 2nd room with a kitchenette was ideal for our long stay. We also enjoyed using the (very well maintained) hot tub which was a real treat.|The biggest surprise was how absolutely walkable everything was from the Brackenridge House! We were literally minutes from the Riverwalk. It was also an easy walk to the Blue Star Arts Complex where we rented bikes.|It’s a very quiet and safe area to walk around and explore, day or night.|Our hostess Lily Lopez was positively wonderful. She was attentive, knowledgeable and very accommodating. She went above and beyond to assure that we had a comfortable stay.|There were lots of gems within short walks of the Brackenridge House, great coffee shops, bars, restaurants, glass blowing, salsa dancing, live music and boutiques.|Before we left for home we had already decided to return to the Brackenridge House, but next time we’ll stay longer!!||Had we stayed in a hotel downtown we would have missed all the history and charm of the King William’s neighborhood experience and the surrounding “cool business buzz”.

Just spent under a week at Brackenridge House for work and vacation. The hosts (Lily and Roland) were just lovely and very helpful. The morning breakfast was delicious and different each day. The location was in a quiet neighborhood—but not too quiet. There were lots of options for really cool restaurants within walking distance. We had a great time exploring San Antonio and would stay at Brackenridge House again!

From quiet to comfort this little gem has the best placement for a good time in San Antonio. The historic beauty of the older King William neighborhood to the youthful imagination and energy of Alamo and Chavez corridor...I was able to enjoy a better San Antonio than the usual Riverwalk routine.|Thanks Lily, your attention to creature comfort and great breakfasts made a busy trip, beautiful. I had a terrific time.

We received a warm and wonderful welcome when we arrived. The room is beautifully furnished and the bed was comfortable.

The location is in the gorgeous historic district and a short distance to the Riverwalk. We felt safe here.

Breakfast was very delicious. The room also included snacks, bottle water and bed-side chocolates.

Our experience could not have been better. We appreciated the care and attention given to us.
