Top University of Texas Tower Hotel Reviews

citizenM Austin Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"It was a great stay, as always. The staff was helpful and the room was excellent, but the gym does not meet the same high standard as the rest of the hotel."

Tru by Hilton Austin University Capitol District

10/10 Excellent

"Overall great!"

Hampton Inn & Suites Austin @ The University / Capitol

8/10 Good

"Rooftop pool was a joke! Don't book for that reason. Breakfast was great. Room was spacious and clean. Location was OK but the view from the room was old rooftops. Not exactly what we thought we would get for the price we paid. Don't ignore that they add on $40 a day for parking."

Fairmont Austin

10/10 Excellent

"Loved this hotel, we stayed nearby for a concert, the room was so comfortable, spent some time by the pool and it was enjoyable although for a weekend we expected the pool bar to stay open later, it closed at 5pm"

Omni Austin Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, helpful staff. Breakfast options on lobby floor."

The Otis Hotel Austin, Autograph Collection

8/10 Good

"Nice boutique hotel. Very good restaurant, though timings were limited (especially their closing at 9PM). Somewhat inconvenient navigation from parking - up one elevator, then across a walkway to the lobby elevators. Parking is quite pricey at $55 a night."
