“Tru by Hilton places you squarely within walking distance of the Riverwalk and Alamo, and its retro-style lobby, complete with game tables, encourages a bit of old-school fun; the hotel clearly caters to those who want to be out and about. The build-your-own breakfast concept is smart, considering how many preferences a hotel has to juggle, and I appreciate the pet-friendly policy. It's a solid choice for families and business travelers alike.”
