A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review

  • It's a fascinating hotel with an even cooler history. Built as a brewery in the 1880s, the ornate Renaissance Revival/Second Empire-style structure was the only San Antonio brewery to survive prohibition, thanks to the innovative leadership of its namesake, Emma Koehler.
  • The beautiful Elephant Cellar—so called for the impressive gray tanks lining its walls—faces the hotel's exhibition kitchen, so your guests can be treated to a behind-the-scenes view of the culinary action.
  • Most event rooms open to The Courtyard, an artfully landscaped space overlooking the river, where a bubbling fountain made from a repurposed brass fitting from the original brewery serves as an intriguing focal point.
