    We stayed at the King William Manor in January, 2012 and would recommend it. Alison, the owner, was very helpful and friendly. We stayed in the Amelia Island room, which was large and comfortable. The breakfasts were outstanding. The South Alamo Street location is also very good. We could get to the Riverwalk by walking a few blocks down Sheridan Street and then walk up the Riverwalk to the historic area. The Blue trolley also goes up and down Alamo, as do several city buses. The Blue Star Arts complex is a few blocks south, and you can rent bikes there to ride the Mission Trail. The Libery Bar is next door, and there are lots of restaurants close by.

    We enjoyed our stay at King William Manor. It was within walking distance to the Riverwalk and had wonderful local restaurants nearby. Craig and Alison were friendly and recommended a bike trip to Mission San Jose and it was a highlight of our trip!

    Good companionship. Great Food. The best thing was the helpfulness and good cheer of the hosts. We would choose King William again quickly.

    I came to San Antonio for a meeting at the convention center, and this was a perfect place to stay. Very friendly and accomodating and the property is lovely. I would absolutely stay her again!

    I stayed in the 2-bedroom house adjacent to the main house, it was fantastic. Just a short walk to lively pubs and restaurants as well as boutiques and art galleries. Craig and Allison are gracious hosts, the grounds are immaculate, and breakfast is delicious. I highly recommend staying at the King William Manor.
