Ranch Motel & Leisure Club

Set at the edge of Brackenridge Park, the navy-blue Ranch Motel & Leisure Club was once a faded Fifties footnote in San Antonio. But luckily, after a twist of fate, Jayson Seidman of the Sandstone hospitality group decided to give it a sporting chance. Cue the montage of making over rooms into simply stylish retro hideaways; re-illuminating its neon sign; adding a palm-flanked pool, mezcal lounge and listening room; and turning it from a blight to a blessing for the community. And the games are only just afoot here, with pickleball courts and other fun distractions in the works.
