Special! Oct 6 to Oct 9, from $149 per night

Hotel Information: Built next door to the Alamo in 1859, the Menger has hosted guests such as Mae West, Teddy Roosevelt, Babe Ruth, Oscar Wilde, and other figures of history. Along with modern updates to the hotel, guests find the original neoclassical Victorian lobby, fine antiques and artwork, the bountiful courtyard garden, historic photographs, and a guest registry dating from a century ago. The cattle-trading guests of the Victorian era have changed to vacationers and business travelers today.

Amenity highlights: A mirrored fitness center with cardio equipment and a TV overlooks the pool area. The secluded courtyard surrounds a large swimming pool and spa tub, shaded by old-growth palm trees and lush botanicals. The Alamo Plaza Spa offers European-style treatments including massages, scrubs, and facials, steam baths, and a Finnish sauna. Guests can have a nightcap at the Menger Bar, built in 1887 as a replica of London's House of Lords Pub.
