SAN ANTONIO, TX (AUGUST 6, 2025) — This August, the Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star Mokara Hotel & Spa will begin a three-month comprehensive reimagination of the award-winning River Walk retreat’s guest rooms & suites. Ushering in a new chapter in timeless tranquility, guests are invited to indulge in “what’s next” – only at the new Mokara Hotel & Spa. Renovations are slated for completion in October 2025.
More than just a place to stay, the new Mokara will be a serene sanctuary for the modern-day traveler. Offering luxurious repose along the iconic River Walk, Mokara Hotel & Spa has long been celebrated for its rejuvenating spa, exceptional service, and signature Texas hospitality. A favorite amongst discerning travelers seeking a wellness-forward escape in the heart of San Antonio’s cultural vibrancy, the comprehensive room renovation will blend modern sophistication with wellness-focused additions.
Inspired by the building’s rich heritage as a saddle factory at the turn of the 20th Century, each guest room and suite at Mokara Hotel & Spa will feature hand-stitched leather decor and furniture, horsehair-like patterned wallpaper flowing through the hallways into serene guest spaces, handcrafted woods, and a neutral color palette complemented by alabaster and herringbone. The guest rooms will showcase featured works by Dallas-based artist Lindsey Myers, who specializes in abstract and impressionistic fine art, utilizing colors and painting in gouache, oil, acrylic, and more to bring her pieces to life. Each room will also include new free-standing bathtubs that allow for immersive rejuvenation, including a signature Bathtub Butler program where guests can have a personal butler draw their bath or provide additional desired bath items like therapeutic bath crystals between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m., and new faucets and vanities that invite guests to wash away the day and indulge in unparalleled comfort and relaxation.
“As we approached this renovation, it was important to the Omni family and our team here at Mokara Hotel & Spa that we showcase the rich history of the original building, while elevating the luxurious experience we offer to our guests,” said Rusty Wallace, General Manager, Mokara Hotel & Spa. “This Fall, we look forward to welcoming new and returning guests as we unveil the next chapter at Mokara and the revitalizing escape that awaits here in San Antonio.”
Mokara Hotel & Spa’s prime location along the River Walk provides guests easy access to San Antonio’s cultural scene and historic landmarks.
