Grand Hyatt San Antonio River Walk, 34-story skyscraper in Downtown San Antonio, United States
The Grand Hyatt San Antonio is a 34-story, 129-metre hotel tower in downtown San Antonio, Texas, with 1,003 rooms. Its facade mixes beige wall sections with grids of small windows, vertical rows of red and orange panels, and two central stacks of projecting grey balconies. A green-tinted glass band runs down the left corner, and the taller rear section carries the "GRAND HYATT" sign near its top.
The Grand Hyatt San Antonio opened in 2008 as a 34-story, 1,003-room hotel beside the Henry B. González Convention Center. At 129 metres it was the tallest building completed in San Antonio during the 2000s, the city's second-tallest hotel and its third-tallest skyscraper. It was designed by Arquitectonica with Kell Munoz Architects.
The hotel's name refers to the Hyatt chain, and its 1,003 rooms make it the second-largest hotel in San Antonio. It is joined to the Henry B. González Convention Center, so conventioneers pass between the two without going outside. The tower's stacked, offset volumes and rooftop metal framework are the work of Arquitectonica and Kell Munoz Architects.
The hotel stands at 600 East Market Street, beside the Henry B. González Convention Center, and a covered link joins the two buildings. Guests can walk to the River Walk and the Alamo from the entrance. The 1,003 rooms occupy 34 floors, so ask for a room on a higher floor for a wider view.
At 423 feet (129 m), it is the tallest building erected in San Antonio during the 2000s, the city's second-tallest hotel and third-tallest skyscraper overall. Look for the "GRAND HYATT" lettering near the top of the taller beige rear section, above the front block's red and orange window panels.
