Top East MLK Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton Austin - University Area

8/10 Good

"This is an older hotel but has had updates. Our room was nice, clean and bed was amazingly comfy. Nice add was the in room safe. The only complaints I have was the smell in the lobby and elevators. What ever it is they are using was very strong and hard to breathe. Our room didn’t have that smell. Also they charge you $39 to park which I thought was totally unnecessary when there is plenty of room to park on their property. This was not valet and not a parking garage."

Aloft by Marriott Austin Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at the Aloft during UT's freshman move in. The staff were helpful and very hospitable and the rooms were as expected. What I especially enjoyed were the restaurant options and proximity to other restaurants in the area. My goal in staying downtown was to get a feel for the "Austin energy" in the city and this hotel exceeded my expectations. I fell in love with the decor, and the food so much that I ordered a to-go order of the quinoa and cauliflower taco from the 2nd floor and a few pastries from the first floor. I love the 2nd floor patio vibe and took a few pics! I will definitely be back!!!"
