San Antonio?
I'm trying to plan a 3 day trip to San Antonio for the day after Christmas. It'll be for my hubby's birthday. I have been before about 15 years ago. Any recs on things to do? restaurants? etc? Thanks.
Re: San Antonio?
We stayed at the Hyatt Regency Hill Country Resort San Antonio after our wedding, and it was so nice! The food was amazing and the lazy river was really fun. It's about 30 minutes from the city but it's convenient if you want to go to Sea World or drive 20 minutes to Six Flags Fiesta Texas.
Of course, you MUST do a riverwalk cruise and have dinner at a nice restaurant like Biga on the Bank or go to the Chart House restaurant at the Tower of the Americas, which is a fun thing to do even if you don't eat there.
Take a drive out to Hill Country, it's beautiful! (Fredericksburg, Kerrville, Boerne areas)
Southtown is a neat little eclectic "hippie" type area that used to be rundown, but now a lot of artists, etc are bringing it back, so there's lots of cool bars, shops, galleries and stuff.

YES!!!! This may have been my favorite meal in San Antonio. Cheap and delicious!
We stayed at Westin LaCantera. I would definitely recommend it as an alternative to staying on the Riverwalk. It is walking distance to Six Flags, and a short drive to the Riverwalk. We also spent a day visiting Hill Country wineries.
Yes you definitely have to try Boudros. I think someone here actually reconmmended it to me for my anniversary and it was delicious.
I agree with pp, checkout the riverwalk and the Alamo area. There is also a really good Mexican restaurant near the riverwalk called "Mi Tierra" I think. They have some good food and mariachis.
If you want to experience the Country dancing scene, then go to Cowboys dancehall http://cowboysdancehall.com/San-Antonio/. Not sure their holiday schedule.
Also Missions National Park (which includes the Alamo).
