Disappointing
The Gunter was once a first-class well-maintained hotel. It now seems to be a cheaply updated flea house. It's a great location but not worth the price with so many other choices available. Sadly, I will never stay here again.

Extremely dated. Smells like mildew. Peeling paint and OLD wallpaper. I can appreciate the character of an old historic hotel, but this needs a serious renovation.

Everything would have been fine if our room had not had a loud motor sound constantly. We thought it was the heat/a/c unit but with that turned off, it still continued---all night, until we left.

The property was well kept and the rooms were clean and spacious (at least the one we were in). It's in walking distance to many major attractions, including the Riverwalk, which is where we spent most of our evening. Across from the Mystic Theater, so if you're gonna go to a show - this would be the place to stay! Breakfast in the restaurant was a little slow, but it was tasty. Easy check in and check out. Valet parking was expensive ($50), but I hate parking, so it was worth it.
