Top North Central Austin Hotel Reviews

Hotel Van Zandt

10/10 Excellent

"Todo es súper relajado no ruidos para mi fue el mejor hotel y eso que yo e vicitado muchos hoteles y para mi 10 de 10"

Omni Austin Hotel

8/10 Good

"Trash left on tables by the lobby, security guard on his phone doom scrolling and didn’t look attentive at all. This makes the entire experience look and feel sloppy. We ordered room service and their breakfast was wonderful, but without any warming plates and no microwave, you better make sure you eat as soon as it arrives. We valeted and the attendance were great, attentive and remembered to offer us water on the way out. That was very appreciated. Overall, the feel felt less high-end and more Holiday Inn."

Placemakr Austin Downtown, Apartments by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"I just want to give a shoutout to the friendly staff. I was greeted with warmth and kindness from the staff along with a refreshing cup of lemonade. Most importantly, I wanted to give an extra shoutout to the front desk and housekeeping employee (Gri***** & Jim***) I have to redact their full names as per hotels.com policy. We left some jewelry (engagement ring/wedding band/gold earrings) behind during our stay. I called and the front desk immediately provided her support and reassurance. She contacted the cleaning department and she was the one that found the jewelry hidden under some face towels. She placed all of our belongings in lost and found. To be able to have such trustworthy staff makes me confident in my future stays. Going over the top is priceless nowadays. May those two get the recognition they deserve."

Courtyard by Marriott Austin Downtown/Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"My wife and I were in town for a concert and couldn’t be more pleased with our stay. The valet and front desk staff took great care of us! Rooms were clean updated and everything we could ask for! We will certainly be back!"
