Stayed here on our wedding night. Granted, the service is good. They gave us complimentary chocolate strawberries. But, the room is old and not four star worthy. There was a dog barking in the next room (we called the desk and it was eventually quieted), and it just wasn't as nice as the price would indicate. Only exception- the Four Seasons Cafe, the hotel's restaurant, is worth every penny. Absolutely divine food and service. Eat here, don't stay here.

Neat little hotel in SoCo. Close to great places to eat and shop. Every room is different and you can view them all on the website before making a choice. Really cool. The staff is very friendly. If you go in the summer they have a good pool area - complete with a kidney shaped pool and lounge chairs. This is such a fun place. I plan on going back soon. While you are there, make sure to stop in for a bite to eat down the road at Guero's - it is withing walking distance.

The Hotel San Jose is not cheap but it's worth it if you're on a luxury vacation or spending a night away from the house. The building is truly unique looking with a great courtyard layout and the location is fantastic, right on South Congress across the street of the legendary COntinental Club. Connected to the hotel is Joe's coffee stand that can fill you up in the morning with fresh coffee and breakfast. If you're going to stay here you might as well go all out and get a sweet. They include all the regular amenities in beautifully designed and decorated rooms.

This is a great wedding spot (and a pricey one) overlooking Lake Travis. The grounds, gazebo, and facilites are very pretty and elegant. My only complaint is the drive to get here - having people drink and have fun at your wedding and then deal with the winding, long drive back into Austin seems like a bad idea. But that's probably just me.....

While my room was not perfect, I was very much pleased with the hotel. I was in Austin for 6 days for some medical tests. Because the "room" consisted of a bedroom, living room, kitchen with eating area, and of course a bathroom, it was not your standard small cramped hotel room. It was an apartment. And being away from home for all that time, and during a tense time, this was the perfect choice for me.
Also, every morning the comfortable eating area near the hotel office offered a full breakfast. Bacon and eggs, cereal and toast, muffins and bagels, pancakes and waffles, sausages, juice. All part of the standard fee.
No, this wasn't a 5 star hotel and there were small details that needed attending to. For example, after flushing, the toilet would fill, the water would stop, but apparently there was a small leak and then the toilet would fill again a few minutes later. But one phone call fixed this.
I'd recommend this hotel for anyone.
Pros: Location, room size, breakfast, comfort.
Cons: Some small details due to the place not being brand new. Nothing to turn me away.

I loved the pool--a semi-circle that starts outside and end inside their rec room. They provide pool toys and robes. Beautiful decor in the rooms--with nice added touches like decorative cloth covering cords (a VERY nice safety feature when traveling with a baby). It's not in downtown but close enough for a quick trip to see the sights.

We stayed at this Austin Doubletree this weekend while attending a wedding. I would rate the hotel as an average experience. The location is very conveniently located at the intersection of IH35 and SH290. It is a large hotel with a courtyard featuring fountains and a pool. They have many meeting rooms, as well as a restaurant and lounge.
The staff was very friendly and helpful. I was surprised that you had to pay for parking in the garage, especially since this is not a downtown location. That added $8 per day to the price of the hotel. The rooms were average, but seemed a little small. We had a room with two beds. It seemed very crowded, and the beds were doubles instead of queens. Overall, I'd give this hotel an average rating.

We stayed here on a Saturday night and had a wonderful experience. The room was clean, the staff was friendly. $18 for overnight parking and valet is a great deal. There are two sized suites - one of which is a lot bigger than the other but currently priced the same. We had viewed the larger room and were placed in a smaller room. However, the staff was very kind and changed us to the larger room with a smile. The fold out sofa was surprisingly comfy (for a fold out sofa) and the king size bed was amazing. All around, great experience.
Pros: Staff, cleanliness, size of room
Cons: Smaller rooms priced the same as larger rooms

We had a delightful stay at Park Lane Guest House. The grounds were lovely, and I enjoyed working and relaxing by the beautiful small pool and under the huge live oak. We stayed two nights in the Vicky Cottage, a Texas Tiny House, and it was great! We had a very nice stereo for our CD's, a nice small "kitchenette" with a microwave, small refrigerator, and coffee maker, and a lovely small bath. The bed was very comfortable, but be aware that you will have to climb a ladder to reach the loft bed, so don't book this cottage if you are afraid of heights. We stayed the third night in the Florentine, which was a very comfortable room in the main house. The breakfasts were delicious! The first day we had a lovely sundried tomato omelette with fresh fruit; the second day we had indivdual white nectarine and blueberry "cobblers" served with vanilla yogurt, and the third day we had a delicious waffle with fresh fruit, real maple syrup (not the fake kind), and vanilla yogurt. We highly recommend the Park Lane Guest House and we have already booked a return visit for the next time we are in Austin on business.
Pros: Comfortable beds, delicious food, the Vicky Cottage is terrific
Cons: None
