Every stay begins with the taste of distinctive, dark Latin chocolate imported from Venezuela. Every Tuesday through Saturday, you may want to retreat to a Latin American "La Merienda," a Latin version of High Tea offered in the Hotel Lobby from 3:30pm until 5:30pm. This is your chance to enjoy Cinnamon roasted Mexican coffees, hot cocoas, Aguas Frescas and Hojorascas (Mexican cookies).

The Caliza Grille features traditional menus for breakfast and lunch and a distinctive dinner menu.

You can catach a boat to the River Center Mall or you can sit on the patio under age-old cypress trees and enjoy the best margaritas in San Antonio.
