Canopy By Hilton San Antonio Riverwalk

The Canopy by Hilton San Antonio Riverwalk is a boutique gem that reflects the vibrant spirit of San Antonio. This property boasts a prime location, stunning design, and top-notch amenities, making it an ideal choice for travelers.

One of the things I really enjoyed about the San Antonio Canopy was how art-focused it was. There were unique pieces of art on every floor and in our rooms from different artists. There were also great amenities like a community lounge where we spent most of our time playing foosball and grabbing a drink at the Otro Bar (another spot with great riverwalk views).

The Rooms

I love a room with big open windows for lots of natural light, and the Hilton Canopy did not disappoint. We could sit on our balcony and look out on the boats passing by on the riverwalk.

As someone native to San Antonio, I had to appreciate the Spanglish artwork all over the room. The tiles in the shower were also a nice decorative touch that added some great character. Falling asleep was a charm with the plush beds and velvety smooth sheets. The front desk staff provided attentive service, making our stay even more enjoyable. The room was comfy and festive at the same time!

Domingo Restaurant

Eating at the Hilton Canopy’s restaurant, Domingo, adds even more to staying at the hotel. It’s located on the riverwalk, and it’s a hot spot for every meal. Luckily, guests do get priority, as it’s won a reputation as one of the best restaurants on the Riverwalk, and it shows with all the people coming in. Everything was delicious, from their salads to agua chile and ribeye a la plancha. While I love my Tex-Mex, I was happy for an elegant Mexican dining experience.

And if that’s not enough, brunch at Domingos cannot be missed. Their churro French toast is an excuse to eat dessert for breakfast, and I’m definitely not mad about that!
