I spent 3 nights at the JW Marriott San Antonio, there for a conference. This is a very large and very nice hotel. The convention center is large with breakout rooms and two large ballrooms. There were other meetings going on at the same time, but there was plenty of room for all. The hotel is located in far north San Antonio, about a 40 minute drive from the central River Walk area. I wish I had come a bit early in the season so I would have had the opportunity to use the water slide. It was closed. There is a nice lazy river and a pool with lots of deck area for lounging. Although I did see some folks out during the day, it was a bit cool for me.
My room was quite comfortable with a small balcony overlooking the front lawn. The bathroom had a seperate shower and tub, very nice amenities, and a make-up mirror. I paid a nominal fee for the internet access which worked quite well in my room, but did not work in the convention center.
The catered meals we had in conjunction with the convention were delicious and very well presented. The snacks were not just the usual fruit and cookies. Some of the options we had through the convention were yogurt with toppings, ice cream bars, marshmellow krispy treats, brownies, granola bars, and fruit and cookies. The staff was very pleasant and helpful.
One downside - the direct TV reception was spotty at times.
