Where else in America can conventioneers board a river taxi to a morning panel and have another one waiting that evening to carry them on a dinner cruise?
San Antonio, the 10th largest city in the U.S., is a city of over a million people that has blossomed into a mecca for tourists and conventioneers alike.
In fact, San Antonio is ranked as one of the Top Ten Host Cities in the U.S. and has been recognized as a city that is ideally suited to host conventions, expositions and meetings of every type. San Antonio has over 5,500 committable hotel rooms within 8 blocks of the Convention Center complex and an additional 5,200 rooms within 15 minutes.
There is a restaurant in San Antonio to suit every palate. If you wish, you can work your way from classic American restaurants, through Bar-B-Que and Seafood, to Continental, Greek, Indian, Italian, and Mexican. And of course youll want to sample some down-home Texas cuisine while youre in the Lone Star State.
While you are in San Antonio you may also want to treat yourself to a performance at one of the citys live theaters, or a visit to the Guadalupe Cultural Arts Center, but most of all, we hope you will come and have a darn good time at LoneStarCon2.
