Casual and dressy casual will get you into most places in San Antonio. Only the nicest restaurants require patrons to wear slacks or formal attire. Plan to pack layers if you visit during the spring, fall, or winter. The temperature can be in the mid-high 80s but at night drop into the 50s or 60s. Whatever season you visit, comfortable walking shoes are a must! Preferably flat ones.
Don’t forget your sunglasses and sunscreen!
NOTE: Hotel Reservations are Closed
If you are making a last minute reservation at the Menger Hotel you may not be able to get the SSS rate.
