6.0
Pros: Staff was what you would expect at a high end hotel. Bed was a 10.
Cons: They did not charge for the use of the elevator. Wifi and parking were by the day so an overnight stay resulted in 2 days of charges. Total $60. Not the smartest way to build your brand.
Excellent
10.0
Pros: The entire experience from check-in to check-out. Nearly everything you need is onsite, and great access to downtown, incl. Rainey Street bars/restaurants and Sixth Street.
Cons: Parking at $32/night is additional, requires just a bit of learning how to use the room key to get in and out of the garage underneath the hotel. Easy once you know how to use the proximity sensor on the exit gate, though.
Excellent
10.0
Pros: The staff were all extremely friendly. The pool was one of the best in town, and the price couldn't be beat. I suspect we won't be paying $149 for this place next year. I highly recommend getting a room ending in 59....best view in the hotel, trust me.
Cons: Afternoon sun blazing into the windows in the lobby bar/lounge area. They need to get some shades in the windows near the top. We left because it got too bad.

Pros: The JW is centrally located to the Austin downtown area and many trendy restaurants and bars were within walking distance. In addition, the room, staff and on-site restaurants were excellent.

Pros: Hotel decor was contemporary & swanky.
Cons: Hotel & pool area are overcrowded with 20-30 yr olds partying in Austin for the weekend. Spa is very disappointing. It was very obviously an afterthought. Bed linens were not what JW brand is supposed to provide - they were Courtyard level (check the tags!)
Excellent
9.4
Pros: The location was awesome, the staff was super friendly and very accommodating, the room was clean and had an amazing view of downtown. Overall it was perfect for a couple of girlfriends and I to getaway and explore austin.
Cons: One thing that I didn't like was that the pool was extremely crowded every day and night that we were there. There was barely room to get IN the pool (you were pretty much shoulder to shoulder in there) let alone find a chair to relax on because they were all taken. We were really excited about the pool too but turns out it wasn't so relaxing. That's my only complaint tho, this hotel was amazing so I can't blame everyone wanting to be there and to enjoy the pool as well.
Excellent
9.7
Pros: I liked how friendly the staff was. The entire place is super clean and nice. Accessible to many great restaurants and 6th st. Also there's a lake only two blocks away!
Cons: The only reason why I didn't give it a five stars rating is because the entrance to the parking lot is so busy. They only had one entrance and unless you valet you were waiting to get into the garage. On the upside the wait was less than 7 minutes. Also the pool bar needs more kore bartenders. The pool attendees were really nice once you flag them down for attention.

8.2
Pros: When we checked in there was a candy wrapper on floor, pieces of trash in closet and a small piece on bathroom floor. I had to call housekeeping to clean our room Saturday after 4:30 pm. They didn't wipe the tops of bedside tables that needed it.
Cons: Parking service was a nightmare. Long wait times.

Cons: Rooms are in need of updating, bathroom tiles and shower are 1970's style. They are building g a new hotel around the old (which they didn't tell you) so don't book till end of summer 2014.. Unless you like construction mess
Excellent
9.7
Pros: I was placed in a recently upgraded room. Fit and finish was very modern, very clean, and comfortable for my 5 night stay. Restaurant and room service was very good. The location of the hotel was great. Directly next to Congress St. Bridge (bat bridge), pretty cool If you get a chance to check it out. The hotel sits directly on the recreation trail circling Lady Bird Lake, this was a great place to go for a walk or run. A quick walk across the bridge also put you in the core of downtown with lots of restaurant choices, Austin city limits, etc. The workout facility was also very nice and open 24 hours/ day. Overall great hotel and would stay again.
Cons: Only reccomedation would be to have the simple sundries store open 24 hrs./ Day providing acces to snacks , medicines, etc. this would be a nice convenience and seems viable that it could be staffed by one of the night desk attendants as it is located right at the front desk anyway. Other than that, great stay.

Pros: Everything was great Staff was very friendly and helpful Our room was awesome and so was the view. Definitely coming back !!
Cons: Only a couple small things that I would have to say was the sink was plugged due to the little mount in the drain was disconnected, but they fixed it right away which was great !! And there was food left behind by the previous guests in our small fridge it's ok no biggie
Excellent
8.2
Pros: Great location and the outdoor patio was wonderful. Giving you a bottle of water every night was nice.
Cons: The bed squeaks pretty bad so it must be very old and there isn't any water pressure in the shower.

Cons: The valet was torn up with construction. The lobby and hallways literally smelt like a sewer. The mezzanine was stacked with old furniture. The once famous bar was loud noisy and also smelt like a sewer. The bathroom had chipped paint and a cracked floor length mirror. There was no counter space in the bathroom. The glass top furniture had dried paint drops on top from lack of a drop cloth.

Pros: Bed was amazing, architecture was beautiful, right in the heart of 6th street entertainment district

Pros: What a great stay! The staff was helpful and friendly from start to finish. It was like taking a step back in time without having to give up any modern conveniences. The price is worth all the little details.
Excellent
10.0
Pros: We came for my 21st birthday on 6th street and I can't imagine picking a better place. They did everything they had to do to keep it classy and cool headed as it's located on one of the busiest and most popular tour attractions in Texas. We only live 45 mins away but Austin is my go to. I LOVE it there. I had friends come up and get ready in the room and hang out before and a little afterwards but only 4 of us stayed in the room and it was everything I could have asked for and more!!! The "haunted" back ground give this place an edge and with the timelessness of the Titanic, it makes the Driskill a MUST DO in terms of staying ATX. 10/10 recommend.
Cons: Nothing- I would change nothing

Excellent
9.1
Pros: The hotel decor and ambiance is very nicely done, makes you feel like you are in the midst of royalty. The bed is very comfortable. The service is excellent, we needed a few extra things since my wife wanted to celebrate my birthday. The bakery downstairs made a real good cake. The location of the hotel is great, it is right in the middle of the nightlife of Austin and makes going bar hopping or clubbing that much easier, cant imagine a better location.
Cons: The elevator floor tiles were duck taped on which was odd. The room is a little small by texas standards but ok by NY standards. There is a surprising number fo bums on the streets outside, just ignore them and be on your own way, if you are from NYC you'll be fine but even otherwise nothing to be alarmed of. A bit pricey.

10.0
Pros: Beautiful historic hotel. Great staff. Great central location. Food was amazing in Cafe and at the Grill. Dog friendly (they have doggie concierge kits with bed, bowls, treats and poop bags).
Cons: The petite rooms really are petite, so be aware of that when you book, but in all honestly, you're only there to sleep and shower so it's definitely not a deal breaker.
Located in Downtown Austin, this hotel is within a 5-minute walk of Lady Bird Lake and Austin Convention Center. Sixth Street and South Congress Avenue are also within 10 minutes. Downtown Station is 8 minutes by foot and Plaza Saltillo Station is 23 minutes.

Pros: Hotel staff are very friendly and the lobby is very clean and comfy. Room was comfy. Loved the soaps and lotions provided in the room.
Cons: We didn't make use of the pool as it was very busy with no social distancing going on. AC couldn't keep up with the heat. We had to request a fan to our room to be able to sleep, but the bearings on it were shot so it made a loud grinding noise for about an hour before it warmed up. The bed is very low profile. We had mixed opinions about it.

Pros: The location is central to everything! The entire staff was warm, welcome, and friendly! The entire hotel just has an overall great vibe!
Cons: If I had one area of improvement, it’d be the lighting in the bathroom. Great modern look to the bathroom but the lighting, even turned up to as bright as it could go, left a bit to be desired-especially for someone putting on make-up and just preparing to look their best.

Cons: You could here the elevator equipment and cars driving by on the streets. Also, there was a wet carpet spot that we couldn’t figure out where it was coming from.
Excellent
8.2
Pros: Clean rooms, great location
Cons: The rooms have that very contemporary “hipster experience” feel but end up being super buggy. The IPTV box mounted behind my tv fell and broke. The lights behind the headboard of my bed, a nifty designer touch, stayed on all night. The shower doesn’t actually keep water in. None of these are dealbreakers, taken in aggregate though it feels like it’s an aesthetic bolted on to an old hotel (a Radisson, it turns out)
Located in Downtown Austin, this hotel is steps away from Paramount Theater and Sixth Street. Lady Bird Lake and Texas State Capitol are also within 15 minutes. Downtown Station is 9 minutes by foot and Plaza Saltillo Station is 21 minutes.

Pros: The staff is very courteous and welcoming. The location is great if you want to enjoy a night on the town without having to drive. The rooms look nice and were clean.
Cons: Parking says $29 a day for guests (actually $37.89 after all fees). I was charged for valet parking, which I never used so I had to call and dispute it. There was a party going on down the hall which did not bother us, until we got a voicemail saying we were going to get kicked out if we get another noise complaint in the morning from management on the first night. We decided to stay away from the hotel for as long as possible to be safe. We asked for a specific room type. Just in case, called the hotel before we arrived to make sure it was ready. They confirmed everything was ready. Once we arrived, they put us in a different room than requested and said it was the best they could do.

Pros: The aesthetics, restaurant, staff and amenities were excellent. The bed was so comfortable! The only problems were that the shower took literally 20 minutes to get hot, (10 to just get warm) and I realized in the morning that I could hear every single person in the nearby rooms and out in the hall, clear as day. So if you are concerned about privacy, or don't want to hear what your neighbors are doing, you might want to go somewhere else. Otherwise, the place was wonderful.

6.8
Pros: The hotel is beautiful and well designed. Staff was friendly. "Wine hour" was fun, and very popular the night we were there. Bikes are free to rent and a great way to travel around the neighborhood.
Cons: Upsold to "lake view" room where you can really only see a sliver of the lake. It should be called "pool view" and on the weekend we stayed, the "pool view" is not relaxing or romantic. The rooms aren't quiet, you can hear everything that happens in the hallway. Valet was expensive ($36 + tip in Austin!) and slow due to volume of folks checking out. Cars are parked in an uncovered lot across the street.

Pros: The view in our room overlooked the lake & it was simply gorgeous! The staff was very friendly and very attentive. We brought our dog & she was the star of the show. They provided a dog bed & food bowls for her. The beds were so comfortable!
Cons: Our bathrooms got clogged twice (not by any extra doing on our part). And our refrigerator never got cold so leftovers had to get thrown away from our dinner earlier that day. Geraldine's gets pretty packed at night, at least inside & there's one fireplace outside we tried to huddle around to keep warm.

Pros: This is a really cool hotel, great pool, great location, really funky designs and furniture, we loved it. The street outside is probably the best place in Austin to go for a drink.
Cons: Not really the hotels fault but the pool area is busy and people get there early to 'reserve' sun lounges and then go back to their rooms. I hate this practice, if you're not using the sun lounge you shouldn't be able to 'save' it. It's selfish and childish.

Very pleased with the hotel from the room, staff, breakfast, etc. Very close to 6th Street and downtown Austin. The only downside is the homeless population nearby, partially the result of the Salvation Army being down the street. None of the homeless people appeared to be belligerent and I didn't feel unsafe. Another plus was Stubb's BBQ being right around the corner. I ate there twice.

Pros: Hotel was nice, close to everything, view from 19th floor was really nice facing 6th street. Nice fridge in the room and room was comfortable. Parking was easy although pricey. was a nice stay
Cons: Don't want to be overly negative here as I had a good stay, however couple things I like to point out. Movies are expensive to rent from on-demand most people probably won't, but 20 bucks seems high to me. (This unfortunately left a bad taste) Although there was nothing to say which line is for Honors members, if your not an Honors member and get in a long line to check in and that line happens to be for Honors members expect some Hilton person to look disgusted and call you out in front of everyone and divert you to another line like a red headed step-child. Basically if you stay at Hilton you better be an Honors member or your just some poor trash that needs to stay clear of the decent upstanding Honors members.

Pros: I just stayed in a hotel in California that was in need of updates. Once I stayed here in Austin, I felt like I had a pretty good handle on what was missing in that last hotel. The appointments were very modern, and there were USB ports everywhere. The lighting was all intelligently integrated, with functions that turned every light on from the door way, or just the entry, or a night light in the bathroom. The bathroom was very nice, not too big, not too small. I noticed that it had been impeccably up kept and that there wasn't damage from mold or anything like that. It's close to everything you want to do in downtown austin, though if you're looking for a run around or along the lake, you might be better off driving there.
Cons: The lobby was under construction, but that's not really a big deal. I'm assuming that most facilities have to look like that if they are going to modernize.

Pros: Miguel Dubose was very accommodating when I called needing to let my fiancé check in before I myself was able to arrive. Our cleaning lady was very friendly and when I asked for a fan for the room she made it happen. Our server Fransico was very personable and friendly.
Cons: Hmmm where do I start? Pictures online associated with the Omni downtown are pretty deceiving. The television in our room had a terrible picture. None of the hdmi ports worked or would even register that anything had been plugged into them. The AC in our room was useless. The coldest the room would get was 74 degrees. The unit would allow you to go as low as 60 degrees but the room never got below 74 and that was at 2-4am by the time it would cool to 74. We couldn't sleep or was so hot in the room. I called the front desk twice and they told me they would send an engineer to access the problem. He never arrived. Once I asked our cleaning lady she brought me a small fan. But at that point something was better than nothing. We could hear the entire conversation of the guests in the room next to us. The mattress are quite firm. Not that big of a deal. But the fact of not being able to sleep due to being sweaty and sticky was very annoying. Not once did anyone ask us if we would like to move to a different room. Maybe one where the AC actually worked worth a flip. The safe in our room was malfunicationing and would not open. Spent ten minutes trying to get into our room safe to remove my belongings. We live in Dallas and have never had an issue at the omni Dallas. But I will say that I will not stay at the omni in Austin again!
Okay

Cons: Our shower flooded and my husband's side of the mattress had what seemed like a broken spring or hole that sank down very deep. Our mini fridge was warm, nothing inside was cold or even cool. The light was on but it wasn't working. The Internet was $9.99 a day and then it didn't even work! I called for help twice, the first time they transferred my call to an offsite wifi support line - not helpful. The second time they were very rude and said they would be sending up engineers. We waited for 1.5 hours before giving up as they never showed up. If you can't help us that would be one thing, but don't say you'll help and then not show up! We left the next morning for another hotel that didn't feel outdated and had better service, better mattresses, and free internet.

Pros: Good location. I’ve front desk staff. Breakfast was good.
Cons: Loud air conditioner, 6am construction on the building next door about 30 feet from our 6th floor window with construction workers able to look in if we didn’t keep the curtains closed, roaches (at least two). So, overall one of the worst stays I’ve had in awhile at a hotel. Maybe I’ve been lucky.

Pros: Enormous, comfortable suites, and very attentive staff.
Cons: I'm not a fan of duvet-only bedding, without a separate top sheet. Also, the duvets were only wrapped in sheets, not fully encased. Everything was clean, and this is probably no different than any other duvet cover, but it causes me to ponder the idea of dirty bedding...and I don't want to contemplate that.

Pros: The bed was so comfy!!! I did ask for help or suggestions for me and my 11 year old to do in the evening and the driver (I hate I didn't get his name) really tried his hardest to help me out. It was hard since Austin is more of an adult atmosphere at night but he keep looking & always looked at location & price of a cab since I didn't have a car. He finally found a spot we could try out & he drove us there even though it was slightly out of their driving distance. He said he didnt want my daughter to be bored & wanted her to enjoy her stay.

Pros: Room was eh, but functional.
Cons: This hotel was bad, the staff wasn't helpful only after I was checking out that the staff was decent and actually gave us customer service but before that when I was trying to check in, the staff was not welcoming. Body language was off, greeting us was not so pleasant, another group of people who were standing by us seemed to have been treated the same. The worse was when our time to check was at 3 PM and when we came to check in, they told us that our room was not ready because of people extended their stay. I have never experienced this personally because, at other hotels, they always had the room ready for their customers no matter what. I had to wait a massive 4 additional hours until my room was ready. My party and I were extremely disappointed. Will never go back to this Holiday location, and I advise others who are booking to triple check your room availability, if not, beware of fighting with their customer service. Also, the price for this hotel is NOT worth it. Please see other options.

6.3
Pros: Worked better than I thought that breakfast was in a room across the parking lot from the lobby. I liked being just a few steps from the Capitol building since I hadn't been inside as an adult. The location was close enough to downtown to walk (5 mins to 6th Street), but quite a bit further to go to the more adult area of 2nd Street. Staff was friendly and after my visit quickly corrected a mistake in my billing. Worked great that I had pre-paid via Kayak and had no problems getting my room immediately. Breakfast was included (hard to find) but be aware the only protein was hardboiled eggs and there was very little fruit. At least there were (make your own) waffles!
Cons: The construction noise across the street was not very conducive to sleeping late on the weekend. There was a huge gap under the door where light came in and A/C went out - like a motel instead of a hotel. The parking was mandatory valet @ 12.99/day and I don't remember that being listed online (at Kayak). Of course there wasn't another close place to park so I guess it was better than $20/night like some places downtown. This place got very crowded on Labor Day weekend, so check in and check out were kind of crazy.

Pros: Nice beds and pillows
Cons: Breakfast was limited

3.1
Pros: The location is perfect.
Cons: The hotel is overpriced. You are REQUIRED to use the valet parking at $14 a night. Between the time the valet took our car and we kicked it up a few hours later, a large scratch was left in one our car doors. The rooms don't have refrigerators and are quite small for the nightly cost.

Pros: The location is close enough to walk to downtown, but far enough away to not be disturbed by late nighters in the streets.
Cons: This hotel is an $80 a night hotel at best. I was charged over $220. You are forced to use the valet parking which was an extra $14 per vehicle which I didn't realize when I booked. The room had mold in the showers and there were several hairs stuck to the wall in the bathroom/sink area. On top of everything, I was charged twice for the room after a checked my bank statement due to a mistake at the front desk. The same exact thing happened to a friend of ours staying in another room. We received no phone calls to notify us of the mistake. Will not be going back again. You're better off staying at the Super 8 down the road. Thank you very little.

5.4
Pros: Location is very convenient.
Cons: Hotel was average by all accounts. Negatives were two factors. The first was the inflated price for the weekend due to the F1 championship. This was unfortunate but nothing unusual. The real complaint was the noise levels through the night. Sounded like I was at a block party until 4am with no effort by the staff to speak with the noisy guests.

Cons: What could have been better? 1. Fewer cockroaches. They're practically part of the support staff. 2. Update facilities for the first time since the Kennedy assassination 3. Lower the price if you're not going to do 1 and 2 from above

Pros: Location was decent for what we were doing.
Cons: My $500 iwatch was stollen from the room.
Okay
5.7
Pros: The location and the comfort of the hotel was good.
Cons: I wish I had known the hotel was doing renovations. While this didn't really have any bearing, it did have some impact. The most upsetting is the charge for parking. If I had known I had to pay $25+ each night for valet parking (only option), I would never have booked the hotel. I didn't have that much budgeted, and it greatly impacted me.
Excellent

Cons: Nothing
Good
6.0
Pros: The location was great. Within walking distance of the Capitol. The staff were efficient and courteous.
Cons: The facilities were being remodeled. They definitely need it. My thought as I was walking to my room was, "what a dump." Also, not the hotel's fault, but there was a loud drinking party in the room next to mine that went on until after midnight. The walls are very thin. I should have called the front desk but didn't. Sigh.
