Menger Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Awesome experience. Hotel was clean and visually beautiful. We did get lost looking for our room, but that’s just due to the design of the hotel because of how old it is. We’ll be back!"
"The location is the best part . Walking distance to many popular places . It is old and not fancy at all but we liked it! Very affordable for the location ."
"This was my 7th stay at La Cantera. I joined the Hilton Honors program just because of La Cantera. I stayed in a corner room with 2 balconies and I loved it. The staff is super and the resort is so very pretty and very well maintained. However, I am going to make 2 important suggestions:
1. For the love of your older clientele, PLEASE put in HAND RAILS to the entrance of the adult and the family pool. In my opinion, the hotel is inviting a possible lawsuit for lack of accommodation. Given the vast array of beautiful options, I know the hotel could put in hand rails that not only help your guests, but add to the beauty of the surroundings. I actually spoke to 3 separate ppl when getting in the pool (I have had knee replacement surgery) and they all said they were surprised that a hotel of you caliber did not have hand rails.
2. If I am mistaken then please forgive me but has Sweet Water updated it menu? It feels the same since July of 2026."
"Room was clean, beds comfortable. Only thing they didn't have in the room was a microwave that I could have used.
But it was ok cause they had a restaurant and a coffee & bar area. Every thing we ate at both places was very good!"
