San Antonio’s Gunter Hotel Undergoing Renovations

According to a recently submitted permit application, San Antonio’s Gunter Hotel — located at 205 East Houston Street , near establishments such as Dorrego’s, Naranja Tequila, and Mezcal Bar — is undergoing renovations.

What Now San Antonio contacted the inn’s owner, Jiwon Choi , to inquire about the updates, but she could not provide additional information before publication.

Nevertheless, the filing describes the project as the “renovation of [an] existing historic hotel to include: full renovation to all public spaces and 300 guest rooms (including accessible guest rooms) and renovation to [the] existing bar and restaurant.”

Additionally, as What Now San Antonio previously reported, Choi — who is also a Paris Baguette franchisee — intends to debut a Paris Baguette at the hotel.

“One main reason for bringing Paris Baguette here was to activate the street corner — not only for our hotel but also for downtown San Antonio. We’re located on two very prominent intersections with significant foot traffic,” Choi shares in a press release.

A reopening date has not been announced yet, so stay tuned for updates.
