The Gunter is where San Antonio has celebrated moments big and small for over 116 years, and it’s easy to see why. Fresh from a $57 million transformation and now part of Marriott Bonvoy’s Tribute Portfolio, we’ve reimagined this 1909 landmark for today’s traveler while preserving the character that’s made us legendary. Proudly listed on the National Register of Historic Places and a member of Historic Hotels of America, our architecture is straight out of an era when people expected to be awed — step into our lobby and see for yourself what giving a damn feels like.
Just steps from the River Walk, Majestic Theatre, The Alamo, and the Henry B. González Convention Center, you’ll find yourself in the center of everything. Back inside, every guest room comes with a record player and access to our curated library of more than 1,000 vinyl records, thoughtfully curated and brought to life by our dedicated Vinyl Ambassadors, because some stories are best told on wax. Hungry? Pull up a chair at Jots Restaurant, grab a pastry at Paris Baguette, settle in with a cocktail at Keystone Club, or disappear behind the gallery wall into Bar 414, our award-winning speakeasy. And because music is woven into our DNA, we’ve opened The Studio—a state-of-the-art recording studio and creative space built to honor the artists who came before us and inspire the ones creating what’s next.
Speaking of music, only at The Gunter can you trace the footsteps of history to Room 414, where Robert Johnson changed music forever. You’ll hear echoes of an energetic past around every corner, colorful stories across all 12 floors, and find everything you need to craft a legendary stay in the center of it all.
