Omni Austin Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location!"

The Code Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This brand new hotel features apartment like rooms with full kitchens, a walk in closet, and laundry in room. The styling was modern and comfortable, with a spacious feel. The hallways felt incomplete with blank walls and unattractive lighting. Stick to the self parking in the garage and don't opt for the valet."

Hyatt Place Austin Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"We chose to stay at this hotel because it was conveniently located near the hospital where our daughter was giving birth. Since we were traveling from Houston, having a comfortable place to stay close by was very important. Our stay was excellent. The room and bathroom were very clean, and there was plenty of workspace for my husband. The location is fantastic, with numerous restaurants and shopping options just minutes away. Although we didn't have the opportunity to use the hotel's amenities since we were only there for two days, our stay was exactly what we needed during such a special time for our family. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and conveniently located hotel."
