Preserving history alongside modern living
Hot Wells is rooted in a rich cultural history with a thriving residential community. The neighborhood was originally developed in the late 19th century as a resort destination, attracting wealthy visitors from across the country who sought the healing properties of the natural hot springs. “Hot Wells is an older side of San Antonio, but residents are really in touch with the area’s history preservation,” says Kristen Galloway, who has lived in San Antonio for 13 years. “The city’s been building up that neighborhood, and it’s pretty close to downtown and everything going on there, so anyone who lives there basically has the best of San Antonio at their fingertips.”
Hot Wells Hotel and Spa
The centerpiece of the neighborhood was the Hot Wells Hotel and Spa, which was a popular destination for celebrities and politicians, including President Teddy Roosevelt and the infamous Bonnie and Clyde. Unfortunately, the hotel suffered a fire in 1925 and was later abandoned. However, the ruins of the hotel and spa remain a popular attraction for visitors to the neighborhood. Today, Hot Wells is a beautiful and unique neighborhood with a mix of historic homes and modern amenities.
