Top South Congress Avenue Hotel Reviews

Tommie Austin, part of Jdv by Hyatt

10/10 Excellent

"great hotel. everything was amazing"

La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Austin Oltorf

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was so helpful, kind and professional!!"

Aiden Austin City Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything from check in to check out was perfect. Front desk guys were kind and knowledgeable. The property felt safe and secure. Our room was clean, cool and smelled nice. Pool area is beautiful! We ate in the restaurant for dinner. We were rude…so sorry guys… and showed up 30 minutes before closing but they were so kind and patient while we chose, ordered, and ate. Drinks were so good. We ate 3 appetizers, veggie tempura, gyoza, and tuna tataki. Delicious!!! In the morning we had breakfast. There were many choices everything we ate was good and hot. So happy with this stay, we will be back!"

Placemakr Austin Downtown, Apartments by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Great room with lots of space. Loved the self parking option; it's a gated garage so your car feels secure. Our two recommendations are to drop the multi-digit code for the door, elevator, garage, etc. If this were a key card, it would save a ton of time and frustration. The other one is to tweak the front desk. It's two small desks where you sit down to check in- it feels odd; it should be a counter, which naturally makes the transactions that happen there faster. The ladies were nice, but need a little more polish and professionalism. Other than this, it was a good stay."

Holiday Inn Austin -Town Lake by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean good size. The lake view was amazing.Every thing was great!!!"
