The King Room was super comfy! The thermostat actually let us cool down the room, which was a win for my chilly-loving heart. Parking in the garage was easy, and the room offered plenty of space for our stuff.

The hotel features a beautifully renovated lobby and dining area, providing a welcoming atmosphere. The location is fantastic, being just a short walk from 6th Street and the Capitol. Dining at the hotel restaurant is a must, with an impressive breakfast and even better dinner options. The fitness center is well-equipped, and each machine has a TV where guests can log into their Netflix accounts.
None to report.

100% recommend for a swift visit
Charming lobby, comfortable room, enjoyed a delightful stay with a well-decorated space and convenient amenities like the nice cafe in the lobby and the lovely bartender at the restaurant, all within a short distance from a metro station.
Not one thing.

The location shines, providing easy access to local attractions and a pleasant 20-minute walk to a nearby university. Valet service was exemplary, and the remodeled gym was a plus. However, the dining options were limited, requiring meals to be sought outside. Additionally, the quality of service varied, with some staff providing less helpful responses than expected. Room issues included receiving feather bedding despite requests for non-feather alternatives.

I had a short stay, mostly to explore downtown and catch a concert nearby. The location is excellent, making it easy to walk to various attractions and venues. I appreciated the charming outdoor areas, which provided a relaxing atmosphere after a busy day. However, the renovations were quite inconvenient as the main facilities were unavailable during my visit.

The Renaissance in Austin has some great features. The staff greeted me warmly at check-in. I appreciated being allowed to check in early after my long flight. The room felt spacious, with a comfy bed and plenty of natural light. I loved the modern decor and the cleanliness of the area. The location is fantastic, close to many attractions and dining options. The breakfast buffet impressed me, especially with its variety, including fresh fruit and tasty pastries. I enjoyed the pool area. it was sunny and had a lovely atmosphere. However, there were some drawbacks. The noise from the ongoing renovations made it hard to relax at times, especially during the day. The parking fees surprised me, as I expected something more reasonable for hotel guests. Also, the Wi-Fi was somewhat spotty in my room.
