Circa 1901. As the first bed and breakfast in San Antonio’s historic King William District, the Brackenridge House Bed and Breakfast has been pampering guests for 20 years. Each of the guest rooms is individually decorated. Clawfoot tubs, iron beds and a private veranda are a few of the items that guests might discover. Several rooms include kitchenettes. Many of San Antonio's interesting sites are nearby. The San Antonio Mission Trail begins just a block away, and trolleys will take you to the Alamo, the River Walk, convention center and more. Coffeehouses, restaurants and antique stores all are within walking distance. Ideal for romantic getaways, family reunions or just for fun escapes.
100 years in historic King William, 2 blocks from the River and 5 blocks from downtown San Antonio.

My wife and I stayed at the Brackenridge on our first anniversary while she was at a conference in San Antonio. The innkeepers are just terrific people who are wonderful hosts. Of course the food was first-rate also but even with all that going for them, I really enjoyed the experience of being there. The way the breakfast is hosted and the whole experience made me hate to leave.
