Guide Review - Fairmount Hotel - San Antonio
The Fairmount Hotel in San Antonio was first opened in 1906. In 2006, the hotel underwent the most recent of its several renovations. However, although the hotel has undergone major renovations, it still retains its original luxury and charm.

With only three floors, the Fairmount offers a limited number of rooms and suites. However, each room and suite is individually decorated and offers guests a uniqe experience. There are also three onsite meeting rooms, as well as a fitness center, laundry service, high-speed internet and many other amenities.

Its Riveralk location puts the Fairmount right in the middle of some of San Antonio's finest dining and shopping. Of course, guests wishing to spend the evening on hotel grounds also have the option of dining at the acclaimed Sage Ristorante. The Fairmount is also located close to all major Alamo City attractions.

In short, the Fairmount is a unique hotel located in the heart of a uniqe city. If you're lucky enough to stay in one of the Fairmount's individually decorated rooms and suites, you'll certainly gain an appreciation for San Antonio's "Old World Charm."
