Yelp Community Manager of San Antonio Jando Shum said Yelpers, or the people who leave reviews, are big fans of the rooftop pool at the Drury Plaza.

According to Yelp, the list was curated by staff members. “We identified businesses in the hotel and travel categories with a large concentration of reviews mentioning derivatives of “vacation” then ranked those spots using a number of factors including the total volume and ratings of reviews mentioning “vacation,’” said Shum.

“From gorgeous convention centers on the river to intimate glamping options, there’s truly something for everyone and at every price point,” said Yelp officials. “We’re excited to share that San Antonio has 21 of the top places to stay in the state.”
