Emily Morgan Hotel

Fodor's Review:

Built in the 1920s and named for the woman who inspired the song "The Yellow Rose of Texas," this boutique hotel sits across from the Alamo on a triangular piece of land. Originally built as a medical school, it's neo-Gothic design stands out from other downtown landmarks. Sleek furnishings and whirlpool tubs in marble bathrooms make it a posh destination steeped in period romance. As in many historic hotels, room size varies greatly, and quarters can be tight. Pros: So close to the Alamo, you can see it from some rooms; nice marriage of modern amenities and classic features. Cons: Relatively expensive, a bit of a hike to the River Walk.
