Filmed on January 28, 2017: I haven't been doing hotel tours in a long time! So I figure why I upload one right now. Enjoy a tour of the historic hotel from 1929. The elevators here were installed in the late 60s. The service elevator with the Otis Lexan is not operational anymore, and it only serves three floors. Anyways, I hope you enjoy this.

i used to watch you 3 years ago, when i was still in my kid era. decided to come back man you are amazing
I am staying here again in about a month. Haven’t had a vacation in a long time very excited. These elevators were amazing I look forward to riding them again! Also the middle ones with 2 speed interior doors were some of my favorites
Hi Jim I remember when I was a kid I used to watch this is was my favorite I wish I could be in a vid with you
I stayed here last week and it was absolutely amazing. Breakfast and Kick back is now included in your stay. The Bar there “Tellers Bar” is awesome! The basement with Riverwalk access feels so prestigious. Great stay!
Hopefully you will reach 1 millions subs
Amazing video
JimLiElevators, Your videos are amazing
Yeah
Wow, JimLiElevators! This hotel feels like you're spending 5 nights at Izzy's! Great video! And, I also like the view of this hotel as well as the San Antonio skyline and the hotel's swimming pool! The San Antonio skyline is like a groundbreaking mix of Las Vegas, New York City, & my homestate Wyoming.
U definitely need 1m subs! Keep up the good work
I agree keep up the good work
The deadbolt is one of those automatic deadbolts that activate when you close the door, that knob just turns on the privacy feature so nobody can put the key in and come in
I like how you are so considerate of everything and everyone around you. Great video thx for sharing
I❤️ the hotel u are saying Jim
I love these kind of hotels and by t the way I subscribed
That hotel was amazing I have been to San Antonio Texas and I never stepped foot in there.
I stay been staying there for every other week for 18 years love the place
This is a good video
These hotel tours are fantastic I like a lot of the hotels Jim goes to most have good elevators
Cool Jim
Your vids are awesome keep filming those elevators!
It was once a bank, and those were the remains of the old vault.
I like ya vidoes
I am glad they are Otis !
Its so weird. Otis and Thyssenkrupp make not very good moden day lifts in Europe, but in America it's completely different. Great video btw!
This is a nice hotel and i like the brass doors on the elevator doors.
Cool
Jimlielevator i Love yourvids:)
I rember watching your and diesel ducys old videos and I love elevator enthusiasts including you!
This is also a very reasonable hotel for the riverwalk. A lot of fun to stay in. I stayed in the new building which had a viewing deck on the roof and the indoor pool.
historiclift27 same
very nice
Coooooooool elevator
I Would Like Take a Hotel Tour of That Hotel in Downtown San Antonio, TX
I love JimLiElevators videos maybe next time I can make videos :)
kinda wanna start hotel tours how the trick
I was thinking the same thing Jim an elevator could have been added to that spiral staircase to the restaurant beautiful hotel
I'll be staying here
That service elevator sure looks interesting. I sure wish it worked. Wonder why though it only served three floors? If it was a service elevator you would sure think it would serve the entire hotel.
DieselDucy has filmed the elevators at grand hyatt
I have seen these kind but I never seen the green light up buttons or a green indicator
iv'e been trying to get my family to here its my ultimate drury hotel , maybe next rear if i save up more points there's just $23.00 valet parking
Is this hotel was used to be the bank building?
I believe so. Not sure though.
JimLiElevators you are correct it is
This hotel is awsome i want to go There as a vacation!
I agree with you that boy
Could you do a tour of the home2 suites? That's where I stayed
When did you stay there, Colin?
My room was 2207
Can I ask you why you don’t flim people?
It’s because people may not feel comfortable being on camera, nor do they like their faces to be shown, especially indoors. Many places have asked me not to film people and I 100% cannot defy that rule. Otherwise, I may be in big trouble.
love in you jim elevator otis elevator
1:30 Otis lexan are the best elevators in the United States and I like Otis series 2
very good
Nice hotel love historical skyscrapers but it looks like you didn't capture the entire skyline or views of the Tower Life building which is another San Antonio skyscraper built around that time.
8:26 dat phone needs to go oph
The person making the comment was actually me
Cringe comments 101
Did you look and enjoy the display cabinet under the stairs. It contains a lot of the original elevator fixtures. Including an old Otis hand crank
No, I did not see that.
You got a small part of it in your video when you avoided the people at the bottom there was one of the governors I think and then behind it was a giant old relay board
I like the guest laundry
I love you so much Drury hotel. Is my job
The lamp that did not turn on probably is on a switch by the entrance.I used to work in a hotel and thats the way it was set up.As a matter of fact I used to work at the Homewood Suites hotel just across the street!
Like if u been there
Why camera return green?
That was my night light I turned on.
@@JimLiElevators oh. Ok
Drury plaza hotel San Antonio TX Downtown San Antonio is a nice city
13:35 you accidentally pressed 18
Maybe the passenger elevators got modernized and they left that button there.
These were definitely modernized at one point.
I got a Otis logo circle today 11/14/18 6:07 pm
It’s okay to make mistakes 1:11
How old is this hotel? It looks like a classic.
I believe it’s like somewhere 80 to 90 years old.
Why is the service elevator doesn't work
decommissioned I believe. Also, that elevator only serves three floors.
@@JimLiElevators craziest thing is this video was posted 6 years ago, so the service elevator might be working right now, or you went to this hotel this year or last year and it still wasn’t working?
Hai do ya play roblox? Because I saw someone in a server with their username jimlielevatoryt. Was dat you.
No it wasn’t. my Roblox was the same exact username as this but with only lowercase letters, but I don’t play Roblox anymore.
@@JimLiElevators oh ok! Thanks for letting me know
Why do the elevators skip the 13 floor?
It’s superstitious.
JimLiElevators oh ok thx
At my country has 13 floor
That’s a shame that the Otis Lexan service elevator isn’t operational anymore but still if it were to be in service I wouldn’t ride it because it would be staff only.
Clickbait looks like a minecraft building
Thats one big drury hotel
The lock is digital so when you turn it it prevents the card reader from being used there is no phisical dedabolt
Thank you for the heart and I was wondering if we could meet because I love in Texas too
No, sorry. Because I don't know you well, I will respectfully have to say no meetups. I apologize, but it's just a safety hazard for me. I do not meet with any random people who I do not know well.
@@JimLiElevators ok I understand but thank you for making awesome videos
I've been here before
What actually happens if you travel back to 1904
I would have seen plenty of old gated manually controlled elevators!
Why are you trying to talk over the music? 5:17
Because KZhead gives us a copyright notice and depending on what music is in our videos, KZhead could also partially blocked it in certain countries.
You mean copyright notification right?
Yes.
No 13 floor? Superstitious huh?
