Kimpton Santo San Antonio - Riverwalk

The Henry B. González Convention Center is a modern, expansive facility located in the heart of downtown San Antonio, Texas, along the scenic River Walk. It hosts a wide variety of events, from large conventions to cultural exhibitions, and features striking architecture, public art installations, and over 1.6 million square feet of space. Visitors can enjoy nearby attractions like the Alamo and world-class dining just steps away. Its central location and vibrant surroundings make it a perfect starting point for exploring the city.

Once the grounds for the 1968 World's Fair, Hemisfair has been revitalized into a downtown community with homes, local businesses, and public parks. There are thoughtful touches throughout, including water features inspired by springs you'd find in Texas Hill Country and a promenade lined with Mexican Sycamore trees. Here are just a handful of the highlights: Tower of the Americas: From the top of this 750-foot-tall tower, take in the stunning panorama of San Antonio.

The Alamodome hosts the city's biggest concerts, is the home stadium of the UTSA Roadrunners Football team, and was the site of the 2025 Men's Final Four. This unique venue was also the home of the NBA World Champion San Antonio Spurs from 1993 to 2002 and is the site of the annual Valero Alamo Bowl.

Just south of Kimpton Santo San Antonio – Riverwalk is the coolest area in town: Southtown. Creative expression thrives here — you'll find art galleries, indie coffee shops, locally owned boutiques, and more microbreweries than anywhere else in the city. Plus, it's all in a pretty setting, with tree-lined streets, public art, and welcoming mixed-use spaces. Unsurprisingly, Southtown is home to both First Friday and Second Saturday, the city's longest-running art walks. The five neighborhoods that make up Southtown — Collins Garden, King William, Lavaca, Lone Star, and Roosevelt Park — each bring their own flavor to the area, and are all worth exploring.

King William is a neighborhood that dates back to the mid-1800s when German immigrants started to move in and build homes. (They loved King Wilhelm I of Prussia, hence the name.) Now a Cultural Arts District recognized by the Texas Commission on the Arts, King William is the crown jewel of Southtown. Stroll by the beautiful homes, and even drop into one that's been converted into a museum. Villa Finale is an 1867 Italianate home that was lovingly restored by preservationist Walter Mathis, a ninth-generation Texan, and filled with his collection of fine and decorative art. The gardens are free to tour and are considered a classic example of Southern landscape design.
