Insider's Guide to San Antonio

Thursday January 4, 2007

San Antonio has one of the more unique civic histories in the US, blending elements of Mexican and German culture with a little bit of the Deep South thrown in. And while certain sites in the city are obvious must-sees (such as the Alamo, of course), there are also plenty of lesser-known but just as interesting places to explore. The Southtown neighborhood is perfectly bohemian. Well, almost - there are galleries and shops full of local goods, but also some of the city's best barbecue joints! There are also quite a few still-active mission churches, including one that offers a Mariachi mass, complete with square dancing. You won't find that in many US cities. Starwood has three properties in San Antonio to choose from: the classic Sheraton Gunter Hotel, the luxurious Westin La Cantera Resort, and the modern Westin Riverwalk.
