Located in what was once a 19th-century brewery, Hotel Emma happily gears up to celebrate a decade of service. Set in historic San Antonio, Texas, the 146-room hotel — ranked a MICHELIN Two-Key property — can be found within the city’s artsy Pearl community on the River Walk.

“When we opened Hotel Emma ten years ago, we worked meticulously to preserve and honor the rich history and legacy of the property,” said Jon Sakshaug, chief executive officer, Hotel Emma. “Over the past ten years we have curated a guest experience authentically rooted in South Texas culture and community, with deep connection to the region’s artisans and makers. By design we remain inspired by the hotel’s namesake, Emma Koehler, a towering figure in the Pearl history whose trailblazing spirit of innovation, courage and resiliency remain integral to everything we do today.”
