Location & Historical Significance
The Emily Morgan Hotel sits directly across from the Alamo, granting guests immediate access to the most iconic landmark in Texas. The property holds the AIA San Antonio's Twenty-Five Year Distinguished Building Award for its architectural significance. The San Antonio River Walk and the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center are both within a short walk.
Rooms & Amenities
Each spacious room at the hotel includes a coffee machine, a work desk, and ironing facilities along with bathrobes and a hairdryer in the en suite bathrooms. Guests have access to an on-site library, a 24-hour fitness center, and an outdoor pool. Luggage storage, a 24-hour front desk, and concierge services are available, while valet parking is offered for an additional fee.
Dining
ORO Restaurant and Bar serves a rotating seasonal menu built from fresh ingredients sourced from local farmers. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are available daily, and the bar menu includes an extensive selection of martinis and award-winning margaritas. Guests receive a warm chocolate chip cookie upon arrival, a DoubleTree by Hilton tradition.
Pet-Friendly Accommodations
The hotel welcomes pets and provides dedicated dog amenities along with dog spa services. The pet-friendly policy allows guests to travel with their animals without sacrificing comfort. The valet team can assist with pet-related needs during the stay.
Ghost-Themed Experiences
The building's history as a former hospital, morgue, and crematorium creates a setting for unique ghost-themed experiences. Guests can request rooms on the 7th floor, once a psychiatric ward, or explore floors 12 and 14 where antiseptic smells from past surgeries still linger. The hotel offers guided tours of reportedly haunted areas led by knowledgeable staff.
