O'Casey's Bed & Breakfast

We thouroughly enjoyed our stay at O'Casey's B&B. The room was clean and comfortable. There is a friendly, relaxed atmosphere among the visitors. Madonna, Hannah, and Kristen are excellent hostesses.

i had a great time in a confortable and cozy home-like place! if i ever go back i have no doubt i will return to Ocaseys

This is a wonderful place that one person cannot say enough about. Offset in a wonderful part of San Antonio with restaurants within walking distance. However, if your choice is the Riverwalk it’s about two miles away and easy to get to. The rooms are clean and set to make any person feel at home. The breakfast was outstanding and plentiful and Madonna will even give you the recipe if you ask!! The staff treats you like you are one of their family. As for the house you walk up and there is a front porch swing with pillows reminded me of home growing up. Then the outside fire place was to die for, with a supply of wood and fire starters that Madonna made sure was there as well as supplies for smores who could ask for more. I suggest for anyone to visit this quaint little inn, we will be back. Deb and Kurt

Imagine sitting comfortably by the fireplace and discovering a freshly baked plate of gingerbread cookies left as a holiday suprise just for your family! This beautiful historic home is managed by thoughtful Innkeepers who take the time to ask what you might enjoy each morning and serve a delicious breakfast--waffles lightly dusted with powdered sugar, carafes of hot coffe and orange juice, individually baked chille rellenos, cinnamon muffins warmed to your liking, fresh blackberries and cantaloupe served on the side. The home looks like you have stepped into the pages of Southern Living and it is so cozy. The Dublin Room was quite spacious and had the amenities you would find in a five star hotel-comfortable beds, soft sheets, bodywash from Bath & Body, upscale television with remote, assorted hot teas with my favorite biscotti, a mini-fridge, microwave, plenty of storage space and extra blankets and towels already in the room. The common areas featured soft music, access to the internet, beautiful coffee table books. We loved the front porch swing and the side garden and patio that was really an outdoor living room for families and guests to gather in. This is a great neighborhood to walk in and it is just a few miles from the Riverwalk-minus the parking fees found at pricey hotels. I've stayed in many B&B's--this is absolutely the best stay I have had at a price that allowed you to really go and enjoy the sights too. Enjoy a little Southern Living at O'Casey's!

This great B&B located in an historic mansion just a short bus ride (No.5) from downtown is now owned and run by Aussie Madonna ably assisted by Kristen & Hannah. They have updated the rooms and provide a very welcoming and homely environment. We had a lovely ensuited room - The Galway - and were offered use of the lounge room, etc during our stay. The girls cook an amazing breakfast and serve it at a huge dining room table. Staying at O'Caseys was a highlight of our trip in the US.

I stayed her for my birthday and it was wonderful and they ladies were very nice and open to making sure I was comfortable. I had a very nice room it was a dream because I loved everything from the parking to the design of the room and the service was on top. They had a great vibe and everything was lovely even the breakfast was a plus. I will be staying again for my anniversary. Can't wait don't miss out!!!!!!

I have stayed in many bed and breakfasts all over the country before and though I have to be honest and say that waht made our stay at O'Casey's such a wonderful experience was not the wonderful accomodations, or the superb breakfast! But the warmth and hospitality extended to my 3 children and my self by all the staff. I was stranded without a car and Madonna was kind enough to gives rides where we needed to go, she even took us drove us to Sea world to not dissapont my children and save us from waiting for a shuttle in the high heat of August. We loved every single thing about O'Casey's they made sure that every member of my family ranging from age 22 to 7 yrs old had a great time, we all loved the food and the love that went into preparing it. I will definitely be back! Sylvia Negrete

We had a great time at O'casey's. The staff is super helpful and friendly. The place has a warm and inviting feeling and the food was fresh and good. The location is convenient and I'd definitely stay again.

Madonna & her staff provided all the comforts of home blended with a touch of sophistication. The breakfasts provided rivaled the Hilton resort we stayed at earlier this year. Outstanding experience!

We deeply enjoyed our stay. Comfortable, rooms, pleasant, peaceful, priced excellent, very accommodating staff. This is my number one choice for future visits to San Antonio.

This was our first stay at a bed and breakfast. From the moment we walked in the door we were greeted promptly and shown great service throughout our 3 night stay. The breakfasts are amazing and changes every morning, so you won't want to sleep in and miss that. They have a very nice outdoor patio with a barbeque grill and a romantic flare as well. In addition the rates were the best for the value. Thank you, Madonna, for creating such a welcoming home in San Antonio!

If you're looking for a place to stay in SA, you must check this B&B. Comfortable rooms, outstanding service and breakfast, all for a very affordable price. The innkeeper went above and beyond to make us feel like we were at home!

Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here. The owner had recently purchased the property and was in the process of painting. I caught her vision for the decor and know it will look really nice when they're done. The service provided was excellent...very friendly owner and staff. Breakfast was different each day and they were willing to cook something else you might prefer if they had it. I will definitely recommend it to friends and if we ever return to visit San Antonio, we will be staying here.

We are moving to San Antonio and decided to stay at O'Casey's while we were house hunting. Madonna was very friendly and welcoming. Never have we felt more at home while away from home! The food was excellent and the rooms were charming. Madonna has down some wonderful remodeling and the inn now shows a lot of its historic charm. O'Caseys is very close to downtown and Fort Sam Houston. This was especially helpful to us as we tried to find our way around. We loved it so much, we are staying here four more nights this month while we unpack at our new house.

First time to stay here. Madonna was a great host, breakfast was wonderful.The property is nice, but she is remodeling parts at a time and making it better. We stayed in the cottage in the back. It has a full kitchen. Nice quiet neighborhood, only 12 blocks from Trinity U. and 4 or 5 blocks from the edge of downtown. A couple of nice shops and restaurants around the corner on Main Street. Great neighborhood to walk or run in.

The B&B was situated near downtown with all of the major activities/things to do within a 10-15 minute drive. We would definitely consider staying there again if we visited the San Antonio area.

We enjoyed our one night stay. Needless to say, we had difficulty finding the place. We don't know the city that well and there was a lot of detours, street closings. Directions were not very clear. I enjoyed talking with the other guests over breakfast. The breakfast was good. Just being honest....the floors creaked and we felt like we would wake up people getting up at night. Felt like walking on eggshells. Other than that....I enjoyed my birthday in San Antonio.

Our stay was wonderful! The room was comfortable, breakfast was delicious, and the Caseys were welcoming hosts! We will stay there when we go back to San Antonio.

We stayed at O"Caseys three nights and were very happy with the accomodations, breakfast, and really all aspects of our stay. Our room was warm, comfortable and quiet. The hosts and the other guests were friendly and the setting was relaxed and informal.

I stayed there while I was attending a convention. I wasn't there often, but the services was outstanding. I missed my ride one morning and the owner was very generous and gave me a ride to my destination. They had breakfast available even though the hours I was leaving in the morning were earlier than their normal breakfast hours. Very nice people and I would come back again and recommend the bed and breakfast.

We really enjoyed staying here. The couple that owns and runs it are very informative and helpful. We were able to book everything online and they were readily accessible for questions before we got there. Breakfast was delicious. I have seen some other posts about the fact that breakfast was not a buffet but it's fresh, tasty, hearty and is easily better than a hotel which costs the same or more. The room we stayed in had a balcony entrance and it was so nice to have that. The street is fairly quiet and a great location for access to other areas in San Antonio. You can hear the train in the distance, but we have had that issue with other B&Bs in San Antonio. Great porches and balcony around the house. The bathroom was clean and charming (we had the Kerry room). Overall, we would probably stay again. It's a great value. We are B&B people and we like them MUCH better than hotels.

Stayed with 2 kids (2yrs old & 6mnths old) in the 2-bedroom suite upstairs. Rooms nice enough, but floorboards & doors were very squeaky, so it was difficult to move around once kids were sleeping (for fear of waking them up!). By 3rd night we all got almost full night sleep, but only because hubby & I spent the evening in the lounge downstairs once kids were in bed, to avoid making any unnecessary noise. So I didn't get the relaxing bath I was hoping for. Ended up cutting short our stay by 1 night as it just wasn't worth the hassle of bed-time. Rooms were nice enough, quite small, but an older house so to be expected. Bathroom was quite tight though. John & Linda & housekeeper Kirstin were lovely though & really helpful with local information. None of them lived on premises which was nice too as we didn't feel we were living in their home - although it was still very home-y. Was a bit disappointed with the dining:no choice of hot breakfast, which was fine if you liked what was made. Really hoping for a proper Irish fry-up, given the Irish theme, but this didn't materialise. We are Scottish so maybe we just had too high expectations - and too much knowledge of real Irish B&Bs! Breakfast served round one big table, so all guests chatted and got on fine - I quite liked that, but can imagine others might find it a little too much first thing in the morning. Late breakfast time though, which we also liked, despite having a toddler who needed milk before the 8:30 breakfast kick-off. Couple of nice restaurants a short walk away (hoped baby would go to sleep in stroller, alas no) but also handy to drive downtown. If allergic to animals, this might not be place for you. Owners have lovely dog, but was regularly in main house & I could detect him even though they took him out of the house when we arrived. Guests can take pets into the carriage house rooms out the back & seems like every guest in there has pets, so be warned if you r wanting a pet-free zone!

The O'Casey's were very kind and made really good breakfast meals. Tis in a great location north of downtown and the place is run well. Highly reccommend anyone to stay there in San Antonio.

O'Casey's was warm and welcoming. Everyone was helpful and accommodating. I will stay there again when I get to SA.

As soon as we stepped throught the door we knew that we were in for a treat.

We were so lucky to find O'Casey's in San Antonio. It's a beautiful home in a charming neighborhood, and the innkeepers are welcoming and ready to make you feel at home. Breakfasts were fantastic! The rooms were tastefully decorated and it was fun to find where the leprechauns were. Don't miss this San Antonio treasure.

We were going to the Riverwalk and changed our mind - eat at a restaurant - La Fonda around the corner and then back to B&B and enjoyed the balcony outside our bedroom - drank a glass of wine and watched the sunset.

Our family of four had a wonderful experience staying at O'Casey's. The older home is very comfortable and endearing. Beautiful wooden floors and stellar porch areas. The rooms are spacious, clean, and well decorated, beds comfortable, A/C keeps the room nice and cool. The breakfast area is large and inviting, and the food was more than we could eat as well as delicious. Linda selects perfectly ripened fruit and John prepares fabulous french toast, pancakes, and scrambled eggs. They even prepared little decorated "teddy bear" pancakes for the kids! John and Linda are wonderful, helpful hosts willing to share suggestions and assistance as requested while offering lots of privacy. We'll definitely stay there again!

The owner, Linda, was most charming and very helpful! The B&B was so comfortable; it was like being at home! The bed, also, was firm and pleasant to sleep in! Ambiance, delightful! We'll come back!

O"Casey's Bed and Breakfast in San Antonio easily fits into the 90th percentile of bed and breakfast stays over the past two decades. Located north of the downtown area of San Antonio in an early twentieth century up-scale, residential neighborhood designated as an historic district. The stately homes of this neighborhood are carefully maintained and some totally restored. O"Casey's sits comfortably among these homes with its wide porch, interior woods, fabrics, and colours. It is well appointed, immaculate, and most friendly. The breakfast is well prepared, offers a nice variety, and delightfully served in a spacious dining room that befits its larger context. The innkeepers are welcoming, accommodating, and helpful but not intrusive. Our particular stay was highlighted by and impromptu evening of shared strawberry shortcake desert, coffee, and conversation with associated guests and neighbors on the porch - one could easily imagine an early summer evening shared with neighborhood friends sometime in the 1920's. An excellent Mexican/American fusion restaurant is within a two block walk from the bed and breakfast. Downtown San Antonio is readily accessible from O'Casey's. When our travel plans include San Antonio, O'Casey's will be a destination without question. J. W. Lindemann, Broomfield, Colorado

10 day visit to San Antonio to see family. Nice family neighborhood yet convenient to highways. Stores nearby and short distance to downtown and The Riverwalk. Wonderful innkeepers very helpful with directions and suggestions for day trips. Stayed in the main house and also a cottage. Clean and very comfortable. Lots of beautiful outdoor areas to relax. Full course delicious breakfast each morning. Can't beat the prices. Hope to return soon!

great stay! very relaxing. wonderful hosts and breakfast

Our 3 generation vacationing family found O'Casey's to be a good fit. The carriage house in back of the beautiful Victorian home was a large room with a big bed, a sofa bed with a trundle bed underneath - perfect for four people. John's breakfasts were huge and filling and very tasty. Linda Faye was helpful and pointed out 2 restaurants within walking distance of which we enjoyed both (Mexican and Italian fare). The house was fun to see and we joined the other guests for breakfast in the main house, while still having our privacy (and a kitchen and large bathroom) in our own space. Perfect for a family!

Great Service, Great B&B, Near by Historical Structures in the neighborhood made our stay educational and wonderful.

I loved this place which is a wonderful old house with porches in a residential neighborhood near downtown S.A. The O'Caseys are warm and helpful but not fussy.

This bed and breakfast was outstanding.

This is a great place to stay if you're looking to be close to downtown attractions but are also looking for a more affordable and personable alternative to the commercial Riverwalk hotels. The innkeepers were very friendly and knowledgeable on the area, and the room (Galway) suited our needs perfectly. I enjoyed the breakfasts each morning most- the food was very good and the conversation with other guests was very entertaining!

Our stay was enjoyable. The three of us stayed the Clare Cottage. Good size for a small family. The breakfast was a basic breakfast, no frills. The first day was steamed eggs, bacon, pancakes & sliced fruit, juice, coffee. The second was a belgim waffle with strawberries & sausage, juice, coffee. We did enjoy walking the neighborhood & felt safe. Great distance to downtown & I35.
