Menger Hotel San Antonio Texas May 2021
There are some hotels around that are straight up legendary. The Menger is at the top of that list. In the massive state of Texas, it might be the MOST legendary.
On our recent trip to town, we were able to spend some quality time there over a few nights.
We had a very cozy room and we had several meals at the restaurant.
The Menger is famously haunted- though we did not experience anything ourselves on this visit. I DID hear a weird voice there on a previous visit, and I did bring that up briefly in the video.
I am fascinated with this hotel for several reasons myself as it is built right beside the Alamo. No doubt, men fell on this ground at that time. Also, Teddy Roosevelt and Gutzon Borglum spent time here. AND, its just a beautiful old hotel.
