I really, really want to stay at the Drury inn San Antonio north one night over Memorial Day and at the Drury Plaza riverwalk one night. It’s a little out of our budget. Does anyone know how to get a good deal on these hotels?

Question by Spyderbear: San Antonio trip recommendations?
My friend and I will be travelling to San Antonio at the end of the year. What are somethings to do in or near the city other than the Alamo, Riverwalk, Zoo, and Sea World?

Answer by corvette
Well, there are 319 attractions within 10 miles of downtown….so the best thing to do is check in your hotel lobby where they have the brochure stand and pick from hundreds of things….what you like best. There is a visitors center across from the alamo that has free maps and recommendations and tons of brochures also. Believe me, there is plenty to do and see….even if you just stay downtown and walk it.
Enjoy your visit.

I am looking for a good decent and cheap hotel in San Antonio?

Best answer:

Answer by dannn
That should be an easy one because San Antonio is a cheap city as Texas cities basically are cheap…

Here are some well known cheap chains of hotels:

Extended Stay America. If you’re staying for at least one month, call them up and ask them about their Long Term Lodging rates (which are not even found on their website for some reason.) Alternatively, LTL rates can be found on Apartments.com as available. You’d have to search for furnished apartments on apartments.com to see if any of this is available. Long term lodging with Extended Stay America is the same price as the average apartment in a given area.

http://www.ValuePlace.com – You can rent by the week at a rate similar to an apartment.

http://intownsuites.com – Same kind of thing only cheaper. Be careful their reputation is not great but don’t take my word for it see for yourself if you want…

I just used this site to book my recent Las Vegas trip:

http://www.hotelscombined.com/?a_aid=26451

– The site checks major hotel booking sites for deals so its an all in one kind of thing…
