Reviews
The East Austin Hotel receives mixed reviews, with guests appreciating its prime location, cleanliness, and friendly staff. However, several guests express dissatisfaction with the shared bathroom situation, noise levels, and hidden fees, such as parking charges.
- Prime location in East Austin, close to restaurants, bars, and downtown
- Clean and modern rooms
- Shared bathrooms for some rooms, which was not always clear during booking
- Noise levels from surrounding bars, clubs, and pool parties
- Hidden fees, such as parking charges
- Inconsistent experiences with room quality and amenities
- 5/5
There are some music venues nearby so there can be some noise late at night but nothing that kept us awake. Lots of food (and nightlife) options near.

Great place to stay in Austin. I know Austin well and needed a night since my flight was delayed till the next next. Great location and everything is curated beautifully. All was clean. Staff was great. I did park on the street as I didn't want to pay for parking which is a bit much with hotels who do not have the ability but due to it's location itis hard and I understand that. Book and enjoy!

The roof top bar was always closed. The front desk was excellent!
- 3/5
Facilities were the weak point. Breakfast didn’t start until 9am, which is late for travelers with early plans, and both the pool bar and rooftop bar have limited opening hours - they were closed for the duration of my stay. You're likely to eat elsewhere. Staff were pleasant and courteous, though not especially welcoming. Verdict: A fine place to sleep, but check what’s actually open before you book.

It was my first time in Austin and I only had 2 nights and my only regret is not staying longer. And part of why I enjoyed my stay was staying at this exceptional hotel. Loved the setup of the hotel which felt different and lovely. Loved my room which was on the fourth floor. Bed was cozy, tv channels were great especially having access to HBO, bathroom was lovely, I also felt safe in the hotel and room. I also loved that it was walking distance to so many restaurants. Looking forward to coming back. 10/10 experience

Besides this hotel being close to DKR I would not recommend this hotel especially with kids. The nightlife kept us up till 1am with very loud music and the building is no where near sound proofed for that. The beds were okay but the bathroom was dirty. Online is way different than in person.
- 4/5
Easy check in and honoured our requests for a high floor room away from the elevator, thank you. Very dated hotel that has had small refurbishments but you can still see the old original dated décor. Very very noisy at 3am when the garbage collection happens to the back of the hotel. Nice and local to downtown
- 5/5
Great location with easy Cybercab ride anywhere or walking around. Unfortunately Poeta rooftop wasn't open during our stay but Uptown next door doesn't look great on outside but amazing place inside with great service and outstanding dishes. The Argentinian place across the street had amazing food as well with the best Empanadas I've ever had. Room was always stocked w water, and there is a mini fridge but no microwave. Would stay again.

There was a huge bug when I moved the door and it wasn’t the most secure location, but overall it was good.

The location is great. Rooms with a private bathroom have a large bathroom. Parking was plentiful and it seemed to be pretty secure. The price was more affordable than central downtown locations The room lighting was poor. The bathroom wasn't the cleanest. Pretty much a bare bones room. No desk to work at. The hotel was pumping loud music from a speaker right outside my room. I had to call the front desk at 10 PM to complain. They did turn off the music after I complained.

Staff was very welcoming upon arrival and our room was ready early which was great! Room was plenty big (King facing pool) with a balcony that we enjoyed. Room was clean and had everything we needed. We only had an issue with housekeeping-they didn't come the first day we were there, and the second day they just dropped off clean towels. We would have liked a refresh, but it wasn't that big of a deal. The lobby gave us some bottled waters that housekeeping staff would have typically dropped off. We used coupons given for the rooftop bar one evening-it was excellent! Great vibes and wonderful drinks. Wanted to try Poeta but didn't have time. Location was amazing! So many restaurants, bars, etc within walking or scootering distance. We used the Lime scooters to get up to the Texas football stadium and it was a breeze. We really enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to stay again if we return to Austin! Also really enjoyed meeting the Lobby pup, Cricket!

We had a great experience with this hotel. The location is great, lots of restaurants, bars close by. Glad there was parking on site. We had to check out early for a personal reason but we'll be back to stay another time soon.

Cute boutique hotel. The location was ok - not a whole lot going on in the immediate area. Our room was fine and the bed was comfortable but the floor hadn't been vacuumed. There were chips and other items on the floor. Thermostat indicated that the air filter needed changing.
- 3/5
There was very heavy smell from the cleaning materials in the room, once you enter the room the smell was so heavy that my eyes watered and me and my daughter start coughing. Needed to keep the front door open for a while just to be able to have the smell a bit disappear.

We loved the vibe! Such great choices for the retro feel, but not old looking. Nice courtyard pool and spacious rooms. And those beds - wow - amazingly comfortable! The staff went above and beyond from prior to our trip, all the way through. So helpful, kind and always looking to see if they could help us out when needed. Lastly, a really good area. Close to downtown, cool live music venues, Target, a convenience store and a liqour store. Not to mention a couple great food trucks. Overall, a wonderful choice for us - We will be back again!

This was my first time in Texas and first time in Austin. I stayed at the East Austin Hotel and loved it. We loved meeting Raymond the cat and the restaurant was delicious. Our room was large and I loved the pink decor! Thank you for a great stay!

This hotel was a refreshing departure from others life stayed at in the area. Cozy vibes and within walking distance of plenty of restaurants, shops, and venues. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Room was well kept with a nice bed, nice bathroom, plenty of seating, and good air conditioning.

Wonderful boutique hotel located right in the heart of the nightlife. I was able to walk to dinner and to a concert. The hotel is really cute retro style with cute little attention to detail like the old style clock radio. The gift shop is filled with great gifts not cheesy souvenirs. Pool, restaurant and bar look great even though I didn’t have time for them. Loved it.

Great casual vibe to this E. 6th St. Hotel. The property and the convenient garage felt secure. I love the little touches in the room, vintage style radio, metal ice bucket, small living green plant. The shampoo and body wash in the spacious shower were wonderful smelling and the water pressure was great. Nice new 'wine frodge'style refrigerators, not the oldy moldy brown ones. The 2nd floor bar was showing movies on the wall, the ice machines all worked great, and I couldn't hear street noise or noise theough the walls from neighbors. Great nightly rate and a very short hop to convention space downtown. This is my new go-to Austin hotel.

Short walk to sixth street. Good value considering ACL festival was happening. Staff were helpful
- 1/5
The hotel was extremely dirty and disappointing. We found black hair in the shower, even though I am blonde and my boyfriend is bald. A huge cockroach was crawling on the wall directly above our bed. My boyfriend tried to remove it with a towel before I saw it, so we unfortunately have no photo of it. We had to check the room every night for more bugs. There were also wasp nests on our balcony. The front desk staff were rude and unhelpful.
- 3/5
Let's start with the hotel. The pool is decent, the on-site restaurant is a nice plus. The food was pretty good. The rooftop bar was a huge hit! We loved it. Now the rooms... they are very outdated. The musty and moisture smell is difficult to get past. The room always felt wet, our towels never dried. They really need to work on the rooms. The location is easily walkable to bars and restaurants.

The rooms were so cute and clean. Comfy beds and adorable robes.

Really great location! It was quiet, relaxed and in the middle of all the Eastside action. Very comfortable bed and nice pool. There's a great option to park or you can find street parking around the area as well. Definitely recommend booking!

The location - restaurants, bars, coffee shops, Whole Foods, Target, liquor store, Yoga studio, food trucks all within blocks. 8 minute Uber/Lyft to Moody Center. Downtown, Barton Springs Pool, Botanical Gardens all quick Uber/Lyft ride away. Felt safe. Quiet-the place was quiet, despite many guests. May not be like that all the time, but it was for my stay. Room-clean, cozy, cute decor, large size, great balcony spacious shower, black out shades and quiet provided peaceful sleeping environment. Staff-very accommodating. Pool-clean, appeared to be well maintained. Many lounge, chairs, and umbrellas. Restaurant/bar onsite-nice to have, seemed very popular. $10 daily food bev credit each night of stay. Close to airport-15 min Uber/Lyft. Bottled water provided. Lots of different outside area areas where you could sit and relax. The rooftop bar on the second floor was closed four of the five days I was there.
- 4.5/5
Well designed, terrific vibe, great location in a good & hip neighborhood. Staff was helpful & accommodating. Would definitely stay there again & again Although very clean & attractive the facility was a touch worn & could use some freshing up. Overall, it was more that acceptable. The Worst look ~ the pealing floor of the pool ooked terrible from the room view.. it appeared to have mold... I wouldn't go near it for the 1st 3 days of my stay. However, when I stopped in to check I found it was usable upon inspection. By then it was too late.

Tha desk clerk was polite, but gave no directions to the room, parking, etc. On the other hand, the restaurant was delightful . Wait staff, host were exceptional.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Property had a cool vibe and it was the perfect location close to restaurants and music venues. Free parking on the street on Sundays. The bed was comfortable, but the entire room smelled of mildew and bedding and towels were damp. The design of the room was not well planned out. The shower is open and all moisture from that area seeps into the bedroom, therefore, making the linens damp etc. Wall from bathroom/shower to bedroom area should be enclosed as well as a vent should be installed.

This is conveniently located on the east side of Austin. There are lots of eateries and bars to choose from. Downtown is a 5 minute drive. Overall, the hotel was clean and well maintained. The only negative was the advertised poolside bar was never open. I will definitely stay here again for my next trip to Austin.

Awesome hotel with a vintage retro feel. As a female solo traveler, I felt safe on and around the property. The room was clean and cozy. The pool was a highlight (any time I travel during the summer I’m hitting the pool first!) I can’t say enough about how great the staff was. They exceeded my expectations from smooth check in to storing my luggage after check out while I frolicked around nearby sites. I will definitely be back. Thanks for such a pleasant stay!
- 5/5
Everything was beautiful and beyond excellent! The area was lively but easy to navigate, checking in took a matter of seconds, every time I walked by a staff member they said hello or good morning, the room was exquisite, even the hotels restaurant was AMAZING and they had 10$ coupons for each day I stayed to redeem at the restaurant/bar! I’ve honestly never enjoyed a hotel this much, it was like a hidden resort in the middle of the city, I CANNOT WAIT TO GO BACK!!!!

Everything was wonderful, but we were joined by a couple of pesky insects that I killed in the bathroom late at night. One was small enough that I was brave enough to get him with my sandal, the other I ended up smushing against the wall with the extra toilet paper roll. I understand the older buildings are harder to keep bugs out of, so I can’t leave an all-around awful review. The place is nice, the staff is friendly, and the location is great. I also found parking cheaper a block over for 24 hour lot that I could see from our room.

My wife and I had a great time staying here. It was a super cool little place to visit. The employees were all super nice and helpful. The restaurant was amazing. But we stayed in room 304 and it smelled overwhelmingly like mold. So it was definitely a little concerning, health wise. The other issue seems odd, but the fact that they charge guests parking in their own parking structure seems kinda disrespectful. But other than that I was happy with our experience

Room was fine. Staff was okay. Pool needs attention. Was a little stagnant and smelled like pee. We ended up going to another hotel pool, The pool bar was closed all weekend and we were looking forward to the outdoor bar they advertised. People were in the pool at night until like 3am with nobody around to tell them to leave or be quiet. But it was an okay stay.

This is a great place to stay during the week, as it's centrally located and it's quiet. I would not recommend a Friday/Saturday night if you are over 40, as the there are lots of loud bars nearby. It has a hip vibe and the price is very reasonable.

The room itself was nice and clean. Parking was expensive ($35) but there’s a lot of walkable places in the area so it kind of offset itself. I really wanted to grab a drink and dip in the pool after a long drive. Unfortunately, the water was hot and the bar closed up shop right when I got there. I guess they were having a slow day? It was a Saturday afternoon and the pool was full until they closed down. I had one of the rooms with its own private bathroom. Would stay here again because the location was top.

Looved !!! This hotel !!! From the customer service to the room to the patio just loved it !! The best was do so soft !!!

Most definitely will be staying here again

This is my second time staying here. The first time was great but, the staff didn’t let me know about the on site amenities such as the bars and restaurants. They also didn’t let me know of the $10 coupons I could use there. First time I ended up not using any of these amenities, this time I did. Loved the poolside bar, rooftop bar and restaurant. The bartenders have great personalities. Parking is charged daily but is pretty straight forward. Beds are comfy. The vibes are all there. Def will be making this my go-to hotel when I’m in Austin.

My husband and I had a nice stay in Austin East! The location is perfect. You are close to several bars and restaurants. To get to downtown, you can ride an electric scooter or take a quick Waymo ride. We also really enjoyed the pool. They even provided floaties. As far as the room goes, we really loved the bed and comfy pillows. I did feel that the bathroom could benefit from some improvements. It was slightly dirty with stains on the walls and tile. There were also cracks and chips in the tiles. We loved the balcony and wet bar, especially because they had a mini fridge. Overall, I would say we had a great stay and loved our trip to Austin!!

Property is decent for the price. But room had unconventional design where bathroom walls did not extend all the way to the ceiling. Good views of the downtown from the hallways though.
