Like the famed Alamo nearby, a premier Riverwalk hotel
has now become the stuff of legend—at least in the realm of event
planning—by holding off the competition to be named one of the top 100
meeting hotels in the United States.
The San Antonio Marriott Rivercenter Hotel earned a No. 66 ranking
from Cvent, the largest event management software company in country, in
recognition of the hotel and its 63 meeting rooms with 60,000 square
feet of event space. The San Antonio meeting space beat out 80,000
hotels and distinguished itself with its combination of luxury, privacy,
service and amenities. Nearly 150,000 event and marketing professionals
use Cvent software to manage 500,000 events and surveys nationwide.
This San Antonio Convention Center hotel
towers over the River Walk area, offering gorgeous views and
convenience to everything downtown San Antonio has to offer. The San
Antonio Marriott Rivercenter welcomes events of any size, from large
conventions of up to 6,400 attendees to more intimate board meetings
with up to 10 people. Its largest room, the Grand Ballroom (at almost
41,000 square feet), provides a foyer with ample room for guests to
mingle during pre- or post-function activities and features back-lit
reader boards throughout the floor. The property is also technically
adept with the latest Wireless IT network capabilities. Amenities
throughout all the spaces include state-of-the-art audio and visual
equipment, exceptional event menus, certified meeting coordinators and
full-service tech support so that all presentations are engaging and
successful.
In addition to the dynamic San Antonio meeting space,
the hotel features a Starbucks onsite along with one of the city’s
chicest and most vibrant dining experiences, Sazo’s Latin Grill. The
restaurant features a Spanish-infused menu that includes tapas, paella
and other local creations.
Convention-goers can rest their weary heads in one of 918 rooms or 82
suites on 38 floors with stunning views of San Antonio’s Riverwalk.
Newly renovated rooms feature one king or two double beds with luxurious
linens and plentiful pillows. High-end amenities include high-speed
Internet, spacious work desks, Marriott’s Plug-In technology that allows
guests to connect their laptops to high-definition LCD TVs, dual phone
lines and premium satellite cable.
