Thompson #sanantonio Debuts Modern Oasis In The Heart of The Arts District

SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS (February 25, 2021) — Thompson San Antonio, a new 162-room #lifestyle #hotel, opens today in #sanantonio Texas’ dynamic Arts District, along the city’s celebrated River Walk. Bringing modern sophistication to the Texas Hill Country, the 20-story Thompson Hotels property captures the vibrant contemporary spirit of this historic Texas city.

“We are thrilled to offer our guests a timelessly original experience in #sanantonio that marries the energy of the Thompson Hotels brand with the allure of this charismatic Texas destination,” said #tedknighton, general manager, Thompson #sanantonio. “A modern-day interpretation of the River City, Thompson #sanantonio offers sophisticated experiences inspired by the rich history and culture of the area. We are delighted to introduce guests and the local community to a new style of #hotel in #sanantonio, with elevated culinary offerings, exceptional service, a sought-after social scene and jaw-dropping views of the city skyline.”

Nestled in the bustling North River Walk neighborhood, Thompson #sanantonio is situated steps from the city’s most sought-after attractions, including the Tobin Center for the Performing Arts, the historic Alamo and the #sanantonio Museum of Art. Thompson San Antonio’s prime location allows guests to explore the city by foot and engage fully with this charming cultural hub.

Inspired by the intricate fabric of contemporary #sanantonio, designer Mariana Valero of Mexico-based #interiordesign firm Amass & G created a magnetic, inviting gathering place where travelers, locals and neighbors can be inspired. Thompson San Antonio’s unapologetically stylish #design pairs handcrafted materials, including natural parota wood and custom handstitched leather, with lavish furnishings and Texas-inspired touches. Residential-style indoor and outdoor spaces feature bold #design elements, intriguing materials and textures, bespoke furniture and the curated works of internationally renowned artists and photographers. Captivating paintings, installations and sculptures are featured throughout the property, including original sculptures by Jeff Koons and Koray Akay, a limited-edition piece by Lucio Carvalho, photography by Lynne Douglas and a 3-D acrylic ink on aluminum painting from San Antonio-based artist, Eric Breish.

Serving as a refreshing and unexpected contrast to the sparkling River Walk, Thompson San Antonio’s lobby welcomes guests to an environment of tailored #design and rich textures. Dark flooring is softened with subtle abstract-patterned rugs, and black granite and rusted Corten steel contrast with natural wood walls paneled in a chevron pattern. A custom-designed floating staircase with vertical handrails wrapped in handstitched leather makes a statement as it draws the eye upward. Lighting is intimate, furnishings are layered for a residential feel, and rich touches, such as a bookcase surrounding a fireplace and large circular columns wrapped in artisan brass belts, tempt all who enter to get comfortable and stay awhile.

Thompson San Antonio’s 162 guest rooms include 33 suites, offering floor-to-ceiling views of the urban horizon and the rolling Texas Hill Country beyond. Ranging from 350 to 2,400 square feet, guest rooms feature refined furnishings, such as custom sofas; sleek equestrian touches, including brown leather and buckle pillow-back headboards in some rooms; entirely bespoke case goods and entertainment centers; wet bars in suites; and spacious stone and glass bathrooms with rainfall showers, plus sculptural free-standing soaking tubs in suites.

Noteworthy in-room amenities include luxurious D.S. & Durga bath products, an espresso and coffee #bar and a beverage and snack #bar featuring regional makers such as Dallas-based Ranch Water and craft-distilled Saint Liberty Bertie’s Bourbon Whiskey from Austin. Designed for entertaining, the Penthouse Suite features a pool table and private terrace, for a private playground unlike any other in #sanantonio.

Dynamic Collection of Culinary and #bar Concepts

Four restaurant and #bar destinations cross indoor and outdoor spaces, offering unparalleled culinary and beverage options. Landrace, a new destination restaurant helmed by James Beard Award finalist and beloved #sanantonio chef Steve McHugh, honors the pastoral beauty of foods that can be traced back to the land where they are naturally shepherded over time. McHugh’s seasonal menus celebrate regional Texas ingredients and heritage growers close to home. McHugh’s charcuterie-focused venue Cured helped put #sanantonio on the culinary map when it opened in 2013. With Landrace, McHugh shifts his focus to heritage and place, collaborating with an extensive list of Texas farmers and growers for ingredients ranging from quail eggs and cabrito to black garlic, edible flowers and Bloody Butcher corn. A collection of Landrace’s dishes will be prepared on the coals, courtesy of an impressive Grillworks wood-fired grill.

Overlooking the River Walk and adjacent to the #hotel, the 200-seat Landrace features a 40-seat riverfront terrace and a distinctly independent mood, with a light color palette, soaring ceilings and walls of floor-to-ceiling windows. The setting evokes a warm mid-century feel with upholstered banquettes and chairs and custom-designed patterned screens in rose gold. A showstopping #bar and a semi-open kitchen showcasing the wood-fired grill add to the ambiance. Landrace also offers two expansive private dining rooms, one of which features views of the River Walk.

Floating high above the River Walk is The Moon’s Daughters, an enchanting indoor-outdoor rooftop restaurant and #bar that dazzles from its 20th-story perch over the city. Inspired by the Greek goddess of the moon, the 300-seat restaurant and #bar – opening mid-March – offer indoor-outdoor spaces with twinkling city lights and all the excitement of starry #sanantonio nights. Here, some of the city’s best live music will elevate the mood. With programming scheduled around the lunar cycle, The Moon’s Daughters will offer live music and DJ sets every Friday and Saturday night, in addition to pop-up events such as a Super Full Moon party, tarot card readings and aerial performances.

A Mediterranean-inspired menu from Executive Chef Robert Cantu, a #sanantonio native and an alum of The Angad Arts Hotel’s Grand Tavern by David Burke and The Cheshire #hotel in St. Louis, Mo., features flavorful dishes that conjure a sun-soaked holiday along the Aegean Sea. A compelling selection of small plates features ingredients such as charred and preserved lemon, local honey, roasted pistachios, local eggplant, fried mint and Marcona almonds. Entrées encompass meat and fish dishes, as well as vegetarian Stuffed Leek Kebobs. Side dishes range from roasted local squash and mushrooms to labneh, artichoke hummus and marinated olives. The Moon’s Daughters is open for happy hour, dinner and late-night dining.

In addition to Landrace and The Moon’s Daughters, Thompson #sanantonio also offers two venues for dining and imbibing. A bustling lobby #bar designed to ignite conversation among guests and locals alike and an al fresco #bar on the fourth-floor pool deck that is exclusive to #hotel guests and residents of the adjacent Arts Residences.

During their stay, guests have access to Thompson #sanantonio Tastemakers, ultra-connected insiders who can help curate under-the-radar experiences locally. Guests of Thompson #sanantonio also receive priority booking for Landrace and The Moon’s Daughters.

Guests will enjoy pampering and relaxation therapies at Thompson Spa, the hotel’s 5,000 square-foot full-service spa featuring five treatment rooms, intimate relaxation areas, a steam room, and a sauna. Thompson Spa offers an extensive menu of facials, peels, body treatments, massages, scrubs, and is the only #hotel spa in downtown #sanantonio to offer the HydraFacial, a replenishing and hydrating treatment that features a combination of hyaluronic acid and patented Boletus extract to reactivate skin’s natural hydration levels and reveal a more youthful complexion. Thompson Spa’s menu also features regionally inspired body treatments, including the multisensory Texas Orange Blossom and Cedar Wood manicure and pedicure. Guests in the know can unwind with secret off-menu experiences, such as artistically crafted skincare treatments, which change regularly. Creative fitness classes include Drop the Beat Yoga, which pairs mood-elevating yoga with rhythm and sound. A 24-hour state-of-the-art fitness center allows guests to squeeze in a workout when it’s most convenient for them.
