Colton House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The stay was perfect!"

Cambria Hotel Austin Airport

10/10 Excellent

"The original room we were assigned to did not need my handicap needs. I was in pain , and they reassigned a Large suite ;handicap assessable) to accommodate me, no extra charge-I was able to get a good nights sleep Very friendly staff I will be booking with Cambrias in the future I am a travel Advisor and I will also be recommending your hotels"

Fairmont Austin

10/10 Excellent

"What a beautiful place the Fairmont Austin is. We had two separate reservations due to one being a family event, and one for a birthday. They were able to accommodate it and make sure that the room did not need to be moved. Also they surprised us with a cake and drinks to celebrate the birthday. I will highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to visit Austin."

Tommie Austin, part of Jdv by Hyatt

8/10 Good

"Service, valet, luggage storage, restaurant, pool, and coffee shop was excellent. Location excellent. The rooms: find what you consider important below. The tommie had small rooms and bathrooms with limited places to keep luggage which made it crowded for two people. The bathroom had the drain on the other side of the shower door and towards the toilet which caused the water to collect on the floor making dry feet difficult after a shower. There was a wood stand to stand on to help, but was awkward. There was no bathroom fan so all the moisture stayed in the bathroom and room for some time. There has to be a mold problem at some point in the future. Perhaps this is a trade off from the Thompson side with bigger rooms."

Aiden Austin City Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything from check in to check out was perfect. Front desk guys were kind and knowledgeable. The property felt safe and secure. Our room was clean, cool and smelled nice. Pool area is beautiful! We ate in the restaurant for dinner. We were rude…so sorry guys… and showed up 30 minutes before closing but they were so kind and patient while we chose, ordered, and ate. Drinks were so good. We ate 3 appetizers, veggie tempura, gyoza, and tuna tataki. Delicious!!! In the morning we had breakfast. There were many choices everything we ate was good and hot. So happy with this stay, we will be back!"

Placemakr Austin Downtown, Apartments by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Great room with lots of space. Loved the self parking option; it's a gated garage so your car feels secure. Our two recommendations are to drop the multi-digit code for the door, elevator, garage, etc. If this were a key card, it would save a ton of time and frustration. The other one is to tweak the front desk. It's two small desks where you sit down to check in- it feels odd; it should be a counter, which naturally makes the transactions that happen there faster. The ladies were nice, but need a little more polish and professionalism. Other than this, it was a good stay."
