Great hotel that was central to a lot of major area. Walking distance to both Franklin’s and the Capitol. Very friendly front desk staff. The pool area is a really cute touch. It feels almost like Miami with the decor and vibes of the pool. Recommend staying here!

It was amazing! The pillows were too soft for me, but that won’t stop me from visiting again. Plus I got to admire some of the MotoGP riders from a distance.

Sheena, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff were accommodating in the grounds were clean and well kept. There was not a microwave in the room, but once we requested it, they brought us one right away. Centrally located and reasonably priced. The pool was a very cute set up, but needs a little attention before pool season. Would stay here again!

Austin aesthetic
Absolutely amazing stay for my family and I. From the moment we arrived til we left after having breakfast. The aesthetics of the hotel were so beautiful, it put our whole family in the right mood. Staff was amazing and very helpful when we had questions. I would recommend this hotel to everyone with or without kids. Always be ready to snap a picture because you will have the best backdrop at every corner.
Beautiful views

Retirement Trip and Stay at Downright Austin...
My wife and I stayed at the Downright Austin, Renaissance Hotel on Sunday, March 30th and checked out on Monday, March 31, 2025. The purpose of the stay was to sign paperwork for my retirement at TRS - Teacher Retirement System located across the street after 41 years of service. It was a bitter/sweet moment for us.
Patricio R Escamilla, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel is nice but could use a deep clean & restrooms are a little outdated. For the price they should offer more amenities. Also $49 parking per day is wild. Other than that everything was okay.

10/10 Exceptional

One night family getaway.
We enjoyed our short stay here. Hotel service was excellent and conveniently located to downtown. We took a short walk to 6th street to enjoy sights and food. Area seemed secure overall and parking, although a bit pricey IMO, seemed safe. Our room was clean and had a great city view. A bit noisy at night if you’re a light sleeper but bed was comfortable. The shower was magnificent and refreshing. We do wish the room had an iron instead of a hand held steamer but does not keep us from wanting to return.

Location and parking good
Trying to be cooler than it really is. Rooms pretty small. Hardly any room to even open up two suitcases. Clean. Location not bad. Being able to park in local parking garage (paid separately) and not valet was a big plus for downtown

Loud and near music venues
If you want to be close to the music scene, this hotel is for you. I came for a business trip. I am in my forties and I think the decor and amenities are more suited for people under thirty. The carpet in the rooms felt musty and I think they should have it updated. On the weekends or when they have special events, it is loud through the evenings. Staff was friendly including valet. There is a coffee shop in the lobby which was convenient.
Christine, 4-night trip

Every time I’m in Austin-I stay here!
Kristi, 1-night trip

Almost great
Great location, clean, great service, very comfortable bedding. A/C was not functioning properly, ran continuously but was still warm and humid in the room. All the outlets & lights near bed did not work. Access to streaming TV not working. No hairdrier or makeup mirror (usual amenities at that price level).
