3 star hotels in Austin

Clean, comfortable and very good looking room. The quality of the hotel was also very nice. It was convenient to go for a steak dinner within walking distance, walk to our venue at Antone’s for a great show and walk back to the hotel to end the night.

Pool was very cold and not very clean, the pool deck had rusted metal fragments everywhere. The beds were not comfortable, with very flat pillows and thin blankets only.

Clean room and public spaces. Jezzie at the front desk and Marcos at breakfast were awesome! They were huge positives to the stay.

Great stay. Staff was friendly, check in was no issue. Valet parking was easy with in and out service. Onsite restaurant had a good selection of food. The room was clean and comfortable. Loved it was close to the bars and restaurants

The staff at check-in was amazing, especially Ladyfair. She went above and beyond in welcoming us and ensuring we had a good overnight experience. The room was clean, as was the bathroom however we did find a wad of tissue above the bathroom door. We only stayed one night but would stay there again.

The front staff was super friendly. The guys at the restaurant were helpful with the menu options. Lots of food to choose from and the portions were huge! Starbucks is in the first floor. Check in and check out was a breeze.

Room was spotless. Great location, 3 minute walk to 6th street locations and lots of restaurants. Cool bar and pool area.

My stay was great and the hotel was beautiful. The staff were all very helpful and welcoming. I utilized all of the amenities and really enjoyed being able to walk around downtown and to the running trail so easily. I’d definitely return!

Clean great atmosphere. Sadly during NYE the road in front of the hotel was closed and we couldn’t get to it for valet and parking and had to park in a parking garage a block away. The room is also very small. Not a big deal but also not much bathroom privacy. It was a sliding glass door and in the right angle you could see anyone sitting on the toilet. And no sound barrier if you know what I mean...

Great overall stay, but parking is $70 for the night I wish they add that into the room fee. We got back at 3am to our hotel room smelling like piss and we’re so exhausted from the show we couldn’t do anything about it— the bathroom light was having an electrical problem kept turning on and dimming like a strobe light but not as fast. The bed was so comfy and the staff were amazing. I enjoyed the shower...

Me favorite hotel in the U.S.! It was clean, spacious, great views with lots of natural light. I loved the amenities and the pool. 10/10!

Absolutely perfect stay at the Tommie. It was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. Location is convenient to downtown and walkable to South Congress and other surrounding areas. I highly recommend going to the Austin visitor center a block away to get your bearings and take the city tour, that helped me decide what I wanted to do next and where everything is. I was able to also visit the...

This hotel was very clean and extraordinary nice. The staff was wonderful and I enjoyed the area.

Interacting w/basically 2 people - Gabby at the front desk & Aaron, your waiter for breakfast in Caroline's restaurant. Both were very courteous, friendly & went out of their way to help us. We will be back!

Loved the location of this hotel. The entire space is a really modern cute vibe and clean. The bar by the lobby was a cute spot to hang out before heading out. Our room was really comfy, had black out curtains and sound machine. I couldn’t ask for more.

Great location! The staff is very helpful and friendly. The room is excellent. My only reason for not making this an exception stay is the sound. The walls are so thin that you can hear someone cough, laugh, snore and all sounds from the rooms besides you. I noticed this at another Aloft brand as well.

solo weekend in Austin and Aloft was definitely the right decision! Location is perfect, walking distance to everything in downtown. Couple blocks from capital. Staff was great! I had a small hiccup in my room and they fixed it so fast while I was out to dinner! Very much appreciated!

Room on the small side but comfy, clean, nice view. The only thing to improve is the lightning in the dressing/bathroom area, it is very dark.

I stayed at the Hilton and paid extra for a larger room, but it felt quite basic and didn’t really justify the additional cost. The view from the window was just a concrete wall, which was disappointing. On the positive side, the room was quiet, which made for a good night’s sleep, and the bed was very comfortable. The shower was average, nothing particularly memorable. Unfortunately, the reception...

Room is tidy and clan condition. Their airport pick drop service is 24 hours so I can use it easily. They asked me to call when I’ve arrived but the number wasn’t correct so I just followed direction then found the van. (Between the pillar K&L) Cleaning lady is kind and seems energetic. Some small groceries you can buy next to the counter. Airplane noise only thing you can endure from early in the...

The location is excellent, close to the passenger terminal. There's a shuttle bus to the hotel, which is great for those arriving late at night. The hotel is quite large, with a restaurant right below the rooms, but breakfast is an extra charge.

The hotel is clean and comfortable. Because it is located at the airport, it provides convenient accommodation for tourists arriving at night. The hotel provides tourists with various services in place. It is worth staying

A standard Hilton room with a bit more space. The free rides to and from the airport were convenient.

Stayed before our flight back from Austin. Free shuttle to and from airport which we used after returning the rental car and to get to the airport for the flight. Lovely hotel, staff were helpful and friendly. Used the pool at 7.30pm, it is quite shallow but was warm . Everything was clean, there was a fridge, coffee machine and bottled water in the room as well as usual things like hairdryer and...

The Wyndham was a good hotel for a 5 day business trip to Austin as it was located very near the central business and entertainment areas with lots of dining choices nearby. The staff was always friendly and helpful.

the room was very clean and comfortable. For me, the best part was that the room stayed cool at the temperature I set it at throughout the night. I loved that they provided soft pillows and also a set of firmer pillows. The staff was very attentive and very kind. The only suggestion I would make would be to place the shampoo, creme rinse and body wash in dispensers in the shower; the small bottles...

The staff was wonderful, as they always are. The rooms are always clean. The location is really good for me as it's less than 10 minutes away from my daughter when I visit. For the second consecutive stay there was a major problem in a room on the first floor. This time it was no air conditioner and the tv couldn't receive any signal. The hot water never got warmer than lukewarm.The time before it...

I’m thinking maybe the hotel was dead because of holiday week? Good room rate. I asked for medium well burger but it was too rare. Staff I conversed with were friendly. Nice shuttle service to airport. It was great walking distance location (0.7 miles) to my daily activity.

The staff was very courteous and helpful- the two casita rooms worked great for our family

All the staff were nice, the room was clean, just smelt very gross on the third floor like old carpet. Also, it says free breakfast but they don’t have free breakfast. But overall good place to stay.

My husband and I had a wonderful sray. Went walking on lady bird lake and got see so much of nature. Thank you for a wonderful and safe place to stay. Clean quite and relaxing.

This hotel is convenient to Town Lake located along I 35. Unfortunately room location was terrible. I had a view of the garage wall and traffic noise off I 35.was aplifirhed.  Truck and motorcycles are very loud. We got very little sleep. I would not recommend this hotel if you think you might get a restful sleep.

Facilities old but renovated, well-kept, clean, & friendly staffs. Comfortable bed, decent bathroom but windows could use more sound proofing as it is nearby freeway.

It was a really nice hotel and with a beautiful view in the morning

Great location, but rooms felt a bit gloomy The hotel is in a really convenient spot — right by the lake and close to downtown, which made it easy to get around and explore Austin. That said, the room we had was a bit of a letdown. It was pretty small and didn’t get much natural light, so it felt kind of dark and cramped. Not terrible, but not the most comfortable for hanging out. Still, if you're...

Clean rooms and comfortable stay. We didn’t have the breakfast but it looked good and fairly priced. They have a shuttle bus if you need to go somewhere which is convenient. Pool was out of order for cleaning but not a big deal as there are plenty of places to swim in Austin.

The rooms are quite old and not cleaned daily. They are also quite small. There is no complimentary breakfast. The gym is inadequate. You get what you pay for, so do not rely solely on the Marriott brand name. The staff is friendly and helpful. The Starbucks barista is excellent, and breakfast is available for purchase and is delicious.

This hotel honestly made my weekend for my SIL's wedding very convenient and the staff are super accommodating! I really want to give a shout out to Christian for truly helping me, my husband and brother in law's hotel in order especially for the quick mattress change. I believe if you are kind to the staff, they will be kind towards you as well and will help out whatever they can which honestly makes...

I rarely take the time to write a second review on the same business trip, but I would be remiss if I did not give this hotel another shoutout for excellent service. After check out, my flight was cancelled due to inclement weather, and I did not want to sleep on the terminal floor at ATX. I returned to Courtyard to work on a new travel itinerary unannounced and without a reservation, and was welcomed...

Hotel is fine. Water was shut off with no heads up besides a flier near the elevator, not even notified by the staff when checking in right as the water was to be shut off. The shower did not work for a full 2 days during my stay, and when I asked when the water would be fully on line (we all need to shower!) the staff seemed bothered that I would even inquire about the water. Room was only partially...

During my recent stay, my room unfortunately had several issues that affected the experience. The TV signal kept cutting in and out, the shower doors didn’t close fully which caused water leakage, and there was a noticeable unpleasant smell in the room. The walls also seemed very thin, so I could hear a lot of noise from the guest next door. I chose Marriott for comfort and consistency, so I was disappointed...

The room is clean, very big and spacious. The beds are very comfortable. I wish it has a safe box, luckily I only stay for 1 night so its didn't affect me on this trip. I would not stay here again though because of the shower's door bad design. It open at the end of the Tub so to get to the shower valve to turn on the shower, The shower head is not moveable and its big so I would get very cold water...

I was there for a week, for work. Everyone was nice, friendly and helpful. Edwin e his colleague from the Valet team (sorry I missed his name) were extremely attentive. Thank you for a great stay.

Conveniently located within walking distance to UT. Fantastic rooftop views, clean room, comfy bed, really nice, well designed shower with soap, shampoo, conditioner and lotion provided that smells amazing. Valet top notch! Yes, $55 is a little pricey but worth it to not have to worry about your vehicle. Conner, Luke and the whole valet team were great! Best valet team, hands down! Will definitely...

Look, it’s in a decent location and the staff is nice but the stay just wasn't worth the price. This place basically has 0 amenities. No pool is crazy, yea they have a rooftop sitting area but there isn't a bar or anything up there to make you wanna stay up there. The bar was nice and the bartenders were nice but it smelled of sewage. Oh and parking is an absolute joke. Valets are great but the price...

From the moment we arrived until the time we checked out, our experience was absolutely wonderful. Conner, Alex, and John at valet were exceptional - incredibly helpful, pleasant, professional, and always on top of everything. They truly made us feel welcomed and taken care of every step of the way. The hotel staff overall were equally amazing and consistently went above and beyond to provide outstanding...

My experience here during the ice storm of January 2026 was a fantastic one. Netta answered questions over the phone, and welcomed me upon my arrival. She is extremely proficient in her role, and she found the ideal room for me. Dan helped me later that night and displayed a generous sense of hospitality. And, at my departure, Marion was super accommodating and professional. The room was surprisingly...

The location was convenient for me as it’s close to the University of Texas at Austin’s museums and the LBJ Presidential Library and to the state capitol. The rooftop offers a fantastic view of downtown Austin and the Capitol. The hotel staff were helpful and cheerful (Fernando and Freddy were especially cheery and they both have a delightful sense of humor). My room was very comfortable.

The rooms are huge, the beds are comfy, and we slept like royalty on a budget. Would definitely stay again for the price point alone. Check-in was a little chaotic after a long day of travel and arriving around 2 a.m. — we were first given a room that wasn’t ready (surprise!), but the front desk quickly fixed it and even offered to move us back to our originally booked king instead of the two doubles...

The AC wasn’t working and I had to move 2 carts full of my stuff to another floor/room. The next room had no hot water.

The carpet had cigarette burns, elevator was down and the other elevator was dirty. The exteriors had trash and the lobby wasn’t welcoming. The staff was ok, just not as engaging as expected. The rooms were nice except they didn’t change out the sheets nor give us towels or toilet paper.

Parking was convenient, the hotel was good. The staff was really friendly. The only thing I could say is that the room had a weird smell, and the TV didn't really work. Most of the channels were not good, the signal was just bad.

the location is good and the room is big! However, the WIFI didn't work and I need to call to resolve it.

Amazing staff. The rooms were wonderful. Although they could use a microwave hence the lack of a star. Other than that I would highly recommend this location. Thank you for the stay!

Good hotel, great vibe and service

The Carpenter was a great stay. Very cool. Writing this mainly to shout out one front desk staff member in particular - Bianca! She went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and settled. Thank you Bianca for your care.

Stayed here for a “staycation” weekend and had a nice time. The rooms are pretty standard and small but everything is redone / new (especially the bathrooms). The room also has a nice patio. Everything was very intentionally done and clear to use (I.e. the board outlining all the amenities). The overall grounds are really nice with a pool, coffee shop, and a place to eat. We loved the plant aesthetic...

Overall I had a nice stay. Property was beautiful and vibey, staff was friendly, great location walkable to the trail and Zilker park. Couple issues that seem fixable for the future: - Was disappointed by the lack of any substantial vegan-friendly food options on the premises. Only menu items at the restaurant were crudite and side potatoes (not a meal). Most places of this caliber/price-point at...

The hotel took care of us really well especially during the blizzard. The rooms had great insulation and were quiet. The rooms were spacious with concrete floors (so maybe ask for slippers?). The attached coffee shop is a great place to work or to get a cup, while the restaurant is a great place to unwind or to eat properly. The bed was reasonably comfortable as well. The closet situation is a little...

I want to take a moment to recognize Sailor at The Carpenter Hotel. I had a situation during my stay, and she took incredibly good care of me. Not only did she fix the issue, she truly went above and beyond. What stood out the most was how she listened. She made me feel genuinely heard and seen, and instead of just offering an apology, she provided a real solution with kindness and care. That level...

The moment I checked in, the manager, Patrick helped me in every way. He was simply terrific. Barbara the front desk lady was so kind and professional, She got me the perfect room. Devan, the man at the restaurant was fabulous as well. I couldn't have asked for nicer service in every way. I will definitely stay there again, next time I am at the Austin Airport and require a hotel room.

Staff very friendly. Rooms large and clean. Disappointed the shuttle doesn’t run before 4 am so had to pay an Uber which was $40 extra.

Everyone was very nice. The room was clean and looked nice and was well stocked. The restaurant was very pretty. The chef waited on us and took excellent care of us. The food was excellent. We have been looking for a hotel in between Home and Houston which we travel frequently with our dog. This is the 6 place we had tried. I believe we finally found our home away from home. We will see you in a couple...

Didn’t have breakfast- we left early - had a airline to catch

Airport shuttle driver very nice & prompt. The bistro on the evening was very good and reasonable. Devin at the bistro was super friendly and attentive. Front desk workers were helpful at check in and check out.

We wanted a hotel close to the Circuit if the Americas. It was. Bed was not as comfortable as I like. But room was clean. Took forever for water to get hot in sink and shower and water pressure was minimal. We didn’t get breakfast because there were minimal choices.

Awesome stay, amenities and staff. Will definitely return.

The hotel was lovely. The room and public areas were very clean and inviting. However there is a loud noise from outside that makes sleeping difficult. It sounds like construction, although we saw no construction in the area. It's like if there were a giant metal tube and someone is throwing stuff down it every 45 minutes or so.

This is our “go to” motel in the Austin area! Secure location, clean motel, helpful employees and comfortable rooms! We’ll be back!

We enjoyed staying here for the night. There are only 2 things I would change: The pillows were too flat, and I wish there was more variety for breakfast (more fruit, jams, and biscuits)

decent hotel, although the breakfast was lacking, there was some sort of stench on the 4th floor hallway, and the walls are super thin. good for the price i would say.

Overall good experience. Key didn’t work for fitness center had to get staff at each visit.

The one elevator situation and the $60 paid parking per night is the reason I’m rating this neutral. $30-$40 would seem more reasonable. Walls were also a little thin in the bathroom. I slept in on breakfast days so I can’t comment. Otherwise, it is centrally located to both East and West Downtowntown Austin. I was able to walk to venues. It was clean. Reservations, check in and check out went...

Advertised as having a “breakfast buffet” but there wasn’t one. Just a restaurant where you can order/pay for breakfast. Generic bottles of water were $7. Parking overnight $68. Will never book again.

Our AC was broken, but the staff moved us as soon as we brought it to their attention with no trouble. Great stay

We were required to use the hotel’s valet parking which was $60 per night, totaling up to more than our entire reservation. We were not made aware of this caveat before hand. The hotel staff were nice, but there was solely one elevator working during our stay. Making our wait times for the elevator exceptionally long. Finally the hotel’s breakfast was not open for several days, with no prior warning...

Great experience but be warned breakfast is not included and you will be charged $80 per day for parking that is not mentioned until you arrive.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Everything looked clean and there was food options very close to the hotel.

Staff was friendly and amazing. Facilities were in great condition, clean and everything was working well.

Room was amazing along with the bathroom essentials. Staf was friendly and accommodating.

Great hotel. Outside of the nightly parking fee since it has a huge parking space, it was great.

Clean room. Professional and nice staff! Smooth check in. We only stayed one night. Glad I picked this hotel!

The room was very clean, the hotel itself was nice, the elevators and hallway had a terrible smell but overall a good visit....the garden grille was very good too!

Our room was spotless and comfortable. The staff was very friendly! We will definitely staff there again when in the Cedar Park area.

Hotel was easy to find, lobby has a nice entrance. Check-in was easy (although my Hilton Honors wasn’t working). Zoey was kind enough to check in to make sure I had everything I needed. My only negative was a host named James who never had a smile on his face or greeted anyone.

The staff were all very attentive to my needs. There were some maintenance issues in the bedroom shower flooring. Cracked shower entry and floor.

It was a great stay everything was perfect. Love the amenities and convenience of everything. Breakfast was gd and my stay was so relaxing.

We were greeted by Zoe at the front desk, who took good care of us, offered us excellent choices of nearby, restaurants, and even gave us a snack bag and a cold beverage. We also enjoyed breakfast the following morning, and all of the staff members were cordial And helpful.

Have to say, having stayed at several hotels in the area, by a country mile this was by far the best & most enjoyable. The two ladies on reception were funny, full of exuberance & pleasure to interact with. Even if one thought speaking like Mary Poppins would make her an honorary British speaker… had to laugh.., keep it up ! Full marks for effort

The hotel was clean and staff was good. I have surprised at check in to find that there was a $75.00 pet free. Almost double the price of the room.

Hotel was great value, good simple breakfast. The gym was average and machines not working …. The rest was good, great for a quick stay

excellent service and attitude for all people there, specially Ana the manager.

Stay was wonderful. Rooms were very clean. No strange smells. Staff was very polite and welcoming. The only negative I would say (personally because people were throwing down) was that the breakfast was not good at all.

Room was clean, breakfast was a little sparce, but this hotel is a very good deal for the price!

Great staff on an older property. Great for the price though and the waffle was delicious.

Room was ok. Twin bed rooms have full size beds, not queen. Bedding was clean, carpet looked recent although there was a lot of white hair on it. Bathroom was clean and towels were clean. We found some blood stains on the headboard and spme pf the bed switches.

Definitely a different hotel from standard downtown. Fits Austin well! Oriented to outside living (bar, pool, restaurant, etc.) so not so great in January when we visited, but likely good other times of the year. Right in the middle of restaurant and other activities which have now spread to the east of IH35. (They were only to the west of IH35 when we knew Austin back when!)

Great and accommodating staff. Cute ambiance and very photogenic atmosphere. Pool was too cold and needed cleaning. Did not see any maintenance done with it during our entire stay. Sun only reaches a small portion of the pool area for less than 3 hours in the afternoon. Not sure if there was clear communication between the restaurant and the hotel but we were unaware of the transition from the old...

This hotel is a well-kept secret, a true delight and well-priced. The staff was helpful and friendly and the room was decorated very much like in Dwell Magazine. Nice thick towels, modern bathroom and comfy bed. Each Christmas when I visit my brother's family in Austin I try different hotels. This was the best in the past 7 years!I'm on a budget and was surprised by how nice East Austin Hotel was for...

To start the staff at the front desk were both exceptional. Knowledgeable and kind. Great start to our trip. The facility was clean and in order. Would definitely stay again.

We absolutely love this budget friendly option for our travels! The room was so cute, bed so comfortable! We didn’t mind the shared bathroom aspect as this setup was similar to a dorm and we loved the $$ savings. The housekeeping staff cleaned the bathrooms several times a day. For future visits I would not want a room on the street side of the building as Friday and Saturday night was so loud I couldn...

The room as acceptable, and staff were courteous. The biggest issue was a noisy guest who was on her phone in the corridor at 3am.

Second stay for transit with family. There is full group business options here, so I will share those photos! Great staff and great lobby amenities! Shuttle a life-saver.

Loved the simplicity of this hotel. Perfect for an overnight stay and so easy to catch the shuttle to the airport.  The front check in person was professional. I got there 30 minutes before check in and they just checked me in. My room was super clean, and the temperature was perfect.  The bed was so comfortable and the bedding felt luxurious.  I loved how the desk was on wheels and could be moved...

You can choose it next time, very hygienic and convenient

Good location,the room is very clean and the service is also very good

The room is very clean, the hotel front desk is very welcoming, the hotel is very quiet, the buffet breakfast is not very rich, but it is much better than the a la carte hotel, good reviews, recommended

It's OK. The front desk staff is quite enthusiastic.

The room was dark and kinda musty. The way the hotel is set up make it very loud in the rooms. A flimsy french door will not block out any hallway and lobby sound. Not to mention weord plumbing noises in the walls. Our room was cleaned the first full day but the next 2 days they put folded towels on the couch, didn't make the beds, didnt take our wet towels, didnt give us new trash bags ect. It was...

We enjoyed our stay, but I was mislead into thinking that a balcony faced outdoors however it faced the interior hotel. The room was clean, bathroom was sufficient. The bed was comfortable and they seemed clean. The only issue we had was the air conditioner did not get cold enough and we woke up a little sweaty off and on throughout the night. The breakfast and other amenities seemed wonderful!

Bed makes too much noise when you get on it and off! Makes a popping sound! And microwave was in a bad spot. Refrigerator could be updated! Other than that, everything was fine. Staff was very friendly.

We liked the room very much because it was very comfortable and spacious. The staff was also very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the breakfast and the snacks, they hit the spot. We will definitely stay again if we have the chance and recommend it to friends and family.

We loved the breakfast. We were disappointed that there were no pool towels at the pool and the jets in the hot tub were not working. We really liked this hotel and would stay there again, hopefully the hot tub will be fixed.

Staff was outstanding. Breakfast was amazing as was happy hour. Room was clean and comfortable and spacious. This is our favorite hotel in Austin. Was a little shocked to have to pay $17 per night parking fee. Never had that before and don’t remember seeing when booking but maybe I just overlooked.

Staff was great, room was clean and comfortable and very quiet—hardly heard any noise from other rooms and nothing from the outside.

My stay was average! When I checked in I was asked if I needed my room cleaned everyday, I stated every other day would be fine but I never got my room cleaned at all during my stay. Saturday morning I requested to clean my room or at least give me new towels before the end of the day. That was not done either! So went back down to request towels, I did finally get towels. Both times I was asked...

Weekend visit to celebrate friend birthday. Valet parking a little expensive but attendee was most helpful, professional and friendly. Room was clean with exception of shower. Found hair on wall and dirt on caddy shelf. Free snacks were plenty but one was stale. Breakfast was very good and attendees kept area clean and were very attentive. Even with these noted issues, my stay was wonderful and...

Some parts of our 2 day stay were good, the breakfast was fine and the room and bathroom were clean. I also appreciated the hotel’s prompt response in resolving a furnace issue. On the negative side I am very disappointed in the valet parking process requiring all communication via text and internet only. Also a negative for me was no option for cash transactions like paying for incidentals or getting...

Talk about a nice Hampton Inn? This is the perfect example! Great location, great amenities, very gentle and professional Front Desk staff all three shifts of my stay! Special things to Corynn the general manager. For taking care of us. I have been loyal to the Hampton in brand for over a decade and I will continue to do so. If you are looking for a place to stay in the heart of Austin downtown, this...

We had such a great experience working with Trey to set up a courtesy block for our daughter’s wedding. He was so patient in answering all our questions and made the process so effortless. The guests loved the spacious rooms and the convenient location. I highly recommend Hampton Inn for your wedding guests or if you are traveling.
