The Emily Morgan San Antonio
The Emily Morgan San Antonio is a hotel in downtown San Antonio, Texas, housed in a building from the 1920s. The property spans multiple floors and mixes original architectural details with contemporary furnishings, offering rooms, a restaurant, a fitness area, and a rooftop pool facing the city skyline.
The building went up in 1924 as a medical arts facility and later became a hospital serving the city. It was converted into a hotel in the 1980s and then taken over and renovated by Hilton in 2013.
The hotel takes its name from Emily Morgan, a woman whose story is tied to a turning point in Texas history. Guests curious about her can find references to that story in the surrounding neighborhood and nearby sites.
The hotel sits within walking distance of the Alamo and the River Walk, making it easy to explore the historic center on foot. Guests arriving by car should note that parking is not on site but available in nearby lots.
Before the building became a hotel, part of its ground floor is said to have served as a morgue during its years as a hospital. Over time, guests have reported strange sounds and unexplained events, giving the property a reputation as one of the most haunted hotels in Texas.
