Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms, although a bit soulless, were surprisingly spacious for a boutique hotel, which I highly recommend. The service was top-notch, with incredibly helpful staff, especially with ordering food and drinks. Plus, the location is unbeatable, right next to all the restaurants and bars in Austin. The dining experience was a letdown with mediocre and pricey options, but the facilities were quite impressive overall.
Our stay at the hotel was delightful overall. The location was perfect, right on Rainey Street, and we had a wonderful time celebrating our anniversary. The service from all staff members was truly exceptional, making us feel well taken care of throughout our stay. While the dining experience could have been better in terms of value for money, we appreciated the facilities and the views offered by the hotel.
Staying at this hotel was quite the experience. The location was vibrant but a bit noisy until early morning, yet perfect for accessing various hotspots. The service was top-notch, with staff eager to assist in every way. The dining options were a letdown, but the facilities made up for it with a lovely relaxing space and attentive staff.
The hotel offers spacious and well-appointed rooms, but noise from alarms may disrupt sleep. The service is exceptionally accommodating and friendly. The location is perfect for enjoying the outdoors and exploring downtown Austin, but it can be noisy due to the bustling area. The dining experience varies, with some outlets being disappointing for the price. Overall, a mix of positives and negatives.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was amazing, right by the river with stunning views of the 4 Seasons and the Ritz. The rooms were quiet as we were on an upper floor, and the service was top-notch with a classic Austin gentleman greeting us at the front door. The dining was a bit disappointing, but the facilities were excellent overall.
