The first B&B in the King William Historic District, Brackenridge House has a two-story veranda overlooking a tree-lined street. The three-course breakfast is a highlight, with signature dishes of Texas eggs Benedict (thick Texas toast replaces the English muffin) and pancakes with homemade blueberry sauce. Enjoy the view from front-porch rockers and porch swings as you watch the horse-drawn trolleys go by. Rooms are lushly decorated with turn-of-the-20th-century accoutrements, and the service is top-notch. Pros: Reasonably priced for one of San Antonio's most sought-after B&B spots, one of the best breakfasts in town. Cons: Rooms are smallish and often difficult to book, especially at peak tourist times.
