Insight Guides "Built in 1859, The Menger retains its Victorian-era lobby and the period features. Some rooms are filled with antiques while others are modern additions."
Fodor's "You'll be the envy of many an overheated tourist strolling immediately across the street from the entrance to the Alamo into the cool lobby and up to your room." Full review
Michelin Guide "A glazed iron canopy and intricate railings form the facade of the elegant Menger, built in 1859, barely a generation after the fall of The Alamo."
Gayot "Standing right beside The Alamo, this 1859 hotel has welcomed countless notables."
DK Eyewitness "The lovely three-story Victorian lobby is decorated with antiques, the Menger Bar is a legendary San Antonio tavern, and the hotel is reputedly home to numerous ghosts."
Frommer's "In the late 19th century, no one who was anyone would consider staying anywhere but the Menger, which opened its doors in 1859 and has never closed them." Full review
Frommer's "The hotel’s location is terrific...rooms in the modern sections tend to be a bit plain. Those in the original Victorian section, furnished with period pieces, are much more entertaining" Full review
Lonely Planet "Historic? Definitely. This place was built in the shadow of the Alamo a scant 23 years after the famous battle." Full review
