Hilton Palacio del Rio Hotel

Situated along the River Walk, across the street from the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, and only two blocks from the Alamo, Hilton Palacio del Rio provides one of the best locations in San Antonio.The hotel was built by H.B. Zachry Company across the street from HemisFair, the Texas World's Exposition of 1968. The 500-room deluxe hotel was designed, completed and occupied in an unprecedented 202 working days. With its unique shape enhanced by the glow of the yellow balcony lighting at night, the hotel reminds one of a golden apiary and also of Zachry's first major venture in the field of modular construction.
