NileGuide Expert Says:
Polo's restaurant at The Fairmount is rated as one of the best restaurants in San Antonio.
Description:
- One of the city's finest hotels, the Fairmount specializes in service rather than in trying to cram as many people into one property as possible. Moving from its original location in 1985 proved to be a monumental event. This historic hotel was loaded on 30 rubber-tired dollies and slowly lugged down the street to its new home. Its award-winning restaurant, elegant lobby and well-appointed guestrooms make it a favorite among tourists and locals looking for a luxurious escape. Guestrooms feature in-room coffee makers, iron and ironing board, dataports, terrycloth robes and hairdryers. In 2004, The Lancaster Group in Houston took over the management of the Fairmount and began extensive renovations on the hotel to return it to the status of "San Antonio's little jewel."
