The Crockett Hotel hosts board meetings, executive retreats, training seminars, association meetings, team planning sessions and small wedding parties, with 138 rooms and suites for overnight attendees. The hotel stands at 320 Bonham Street in downtown San Antonio, Texas, next to the Alamo and steps from the River Walk.
Seminars and company events
Meetings take place in the Executive Boardroom, on the seventh floor. The room was designed to feel like a private penthouse, with 14-foot ceilings and windows looking over the Alamo. It suits small corporate groups, leadership off-sites and board meetings. King and queen guest rooms adjoin the boardroom, which is practical for speakers and VIP guests who need to stay close to the meeting. A sales team handles group bookings and can suggest dates that carry extra perks and preferred group rates. The hotel's location puts restaurants, museums and evening activities within walking distance for attendees.
Weddings and receptions
The Executive Boardroom is also used for intimate wedding parties and private celebrations, with guest rooms in the same building for the couple and their families.

History and setting
The Three Link Fraternity built the property in 1909 as both a lodge and a hotel. A seven-story west wing was added in 1927. In 1982 San Antonio native John Blocker bought the hotel and restored many of its original architectural details. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and the hotel is a member of Historic Hotels of America. It is named after Davy Crockett, one of the defenders of the Alamo.
Getting there
The hotel sits in the heart of downtown San Antonio, beside the Alamo and a short walk from the River Walk, so attendees can reach shops, restaurants and the city's main sights on foot.
