Located in the heart of downtown, along the banks of the historic San Antonio Riverwalk, history comes alive at the acclaimed Omni La Mansión del Rio. Originally built as a school by four brothers of the Society of Mary in 1852, the Omni La Mansión del Rio opened its doors as a luxury hotel in April of 1968, just in time for Hemisfair, San Antonio's 1968 World Fair. The hotel's blend of Spanish colonial architecture, storybook setting, celebrated restaurant, and elegant accommodations are just a few of the reasons it is recommended by the most discriminating traveler.
338 guest rooms and suites are decorated in a Spanish Colonial style and some offer enchanting views of the San Antonio River Walk or one of the hotel's courtyards. All of the Omni La Mansión guest rooms and suites are non-smoking accommodations. Built on three levels that descend down to the River Walk, the AAA four diamond Las Canarias is known for its romantic and relaxing atmosphere. Sitting under the graceful palms, watching the flow of the river, or being caught up in the festivities of people strolling by, diners are carried away to another place and time. Inside, Las Canarias recreates the graciousness that accompanies fine dining while providing the comfort that contemporary lifestyles demand.
