Sonesta Bee Cave Austin Hill Country

Everything was great 😃

Beautiful property. Comfortable rooms and beds!

My stay at Sonesta Bee Cave was pretty underwhelming. The room was very small and did not have any overhead lighting, which caused it to be very dark from evening onwards. I went to use the provided room iron, and there was a substance that had been burnt onto the iron that got on my dress. I requested a new iron, and the front desk staff informed me that they would be happy to provide a steamer in addition to the iron. The iron was replaced but the maid did not bring a steamer. I went to the front desk on my way out that evening and asked for the steamer again. I asked at least 4 different staff members for this steamer over the course of 2 days. I never recieved the item. The welcome paper said two waters would be provided in the room as well as a $15 food credit. There was no water in my room, and I was charged the full amount for items purchased in the small marketplace area. There is no food available for a large portion of the day (post breakfast until 4pm restaurant opening) beyond the tiny market. My room was also never cleaned, even though I took off the DND sign. I would not spend the almost $300/night to stay here again. The value is not there and I was not thrilled with my stay at all.

Would definitely come again.

It was clean and we enjoyed our stay

Very nice hotel and great price!

Me and my son stayed this hotel 3 nights for the Little Mo tennis tournament. This hotel is beyond expectations. It is much better than the 4 star hotel in downtown that we stayed previous night. The room is spacious and clean. Staffs are friendly and helpful. The rooftop restaurant has excellent food with very reasonable price. I highly recommend this hotel.

Beautiful property, well-maintained, friendly and welcoming staff. Loved the pool and fitness room. Would stay again.

I had booked a corner room. I didn’t like the view from my room on the 4th floor. Emre at the front desk offered another room for me to check and we ended up keeping the room that we had and just kept the curtains closed because the view was the AC units below us. Emre offered a credit for the restaurant and a breakfast discount which was well appreciated. We just had a cocktail and dessert at the bar. The staff was very accommodating.

Nice rooms. Friendly check in. Rooftop bar was great.

Clean room good bed

Check in was amazing. The front desk was so kind and so informative. We really enjoyed our stay.

It was perfect for my stay

Great staff. Best beds. Great place

Very nice view!

Clean rooms; worn cushions in the pool area and the Meridian; full size bathroom toiletries; plenty pillows and bed comfortable; under garage parking; small cafe w ok breakfast to go

The rooms were very clean. The staff at check in was very friendly and helpful. Bo, Alex and Ariel at the upstairs restaurant/ bar were wonderful and very attentive.

Room carpet was filthy and torn. Room was musty and had fleas, pool had no towels and pool umbrellas required multiple requests to open. I distinctly asked if $50 incidental charge would be credited upon check out. Front desk assured me it would but then charged me $28 additional amenity/reservation fee. This did not exist 2 wknds ago. This Fee included $33 food & beverage voucher BUT only 1 per day & could only be used at restaurant which opens at 4pm & checkout 11am. Told me I could not use it at the cafe. Restaurant applied entire $33 voucher to my $20 bill, gave herself a 20% tip, did not have me sign or give me receipt & upon asking, she refused to credit me the remaining balance.

Rooms are comfortable and AC silent, which is rare. Great pool, a relaxing time. Professional friendly staff.

Staff was friendly and helpful, room was great, and clean. No complaints!

Room, amenities such as pool and on site restaurant/bar were excellent. Parking can be limited

ability to walk to and around the mall

Nice room with a view of the hills. Delayed plane arrival had us checking in late, so we missed out on the rooftop bar amenity.

Our room was very comfortable and clean. The bar’s staff were very friendly. Drinks and bites to eat were wonderful.

Centrally located with options of dining, entertainment and shopping.

first room was in disrepair bar/restaurant staff rude. Party a plenty

The food in the restaurant/bar was excellent! The only thing that was annoying was they put up the free coffee in the lobby at 9am.

Otherwise nice place.

Very clean and friendly

We had a great family trip. The hotel is nice and in a great walkable area.

Clean room

Location is perfect. You're within walking distance to a great coffee shop. The rooftop patio is lovely. And the staff are fantastic. Everyone from the front desk, all the way up to the rooftop patio bar, were absolutely stellar. There is a lot I did not like about this hotel, and it really surprised me. First the room. Although it was nice and the bed was comfortable, the window looking out was filthy. The air conditioning worked well, except it did very little to combat the humidity, and so it just felt damp in the room. The rooftop, which is spectacular, is not available to guests during the day. It's only open after 3 or 4 p.m., and there just isn't another place to sit or spend time that's very nice anywhere. The parking garage filled up with conference attendees, so we had to park down the street, which was inconvenient. The parking spots are so tiny that if you have a truck or a larger vehicle, you’ll use more than your space. There was supposed to be a $15 per day food and drink credit included with my reservation, which no one seemed to know anything about. Then lastly, there is a resort fee, which they call a destination fee. This was never disclosed up until I arrived at the property. Problem is, this is not a resort. It does not have resort amenities. It just seemed like a way to nickel and dime your guets, and I found it to be obnoxious. All in all, this was not a good value, and I would not stay here again.

Great room. Great rooftop bar. Great pool. Employees were very helpful and kind.

Great stay, good staff, good bar, would stay again

Clean room and friendly staff.

Staff at check in was wonderful. Easy access to shopping area. Great pool.

The staff was very helpful and friendly

Need to look at changing out the hallway carpet. Very worn

Walking distance to the shopping center

Did not use More coffee in room

The location and surrounding venues were conveniently located within walking distance. Additionally walking around you felt safe and it was great to not have to use a car to go to a great restaurant or an art gallery. There are great places to eat morning and evening. Comfort was great! The air conditioning in the room and in the halls were working 100%. The bed and linens were great that I actually got a good night's sleep. Staff could have been friendlier. The only staffer that was energetic and friendly was the overnight desk manager when we were checking out at 5am. I could have given a single staff member a pass for not being friendly, I understand we have our bad days and not be 100%. But for a four night stay from morning to evening and walking through the lobby and halls, more staffers could have been friendlier. It gave me the impression that everyone working there received bad news. The shades on the lighting above the nightstand were "water stained". Wondering what type of moisture happened to make them look like that. Attention to detail would be helpful to catch these things. If most of the staff was friendly and catching easy things to fix in the room, I would have given high scores across the board to include being a great value.

The restaurant was a wonderful surprise - great staff, views, and food!

All good

Never had light room cleaning (trash, and towels) restaurant closed for breakfast. Not a great hotel~

All the staff at this hotel were incredibly nice. Property was well maintained and room was super clean. Had a great experience at this property.

Great location

Room was clean. Staff very friendly

We were there three days. Never saw the cleaning staff. Said they would do a daily light clean - never happened never got garbage, never gave us fresh towels, never gave us additional coffee cups. Don't like the shower, no where to set your foot when shaving legs.also, we arrived a few hours early and simply asked if a room might already be available. We were told we have to pay an extra $30 to go into a room before the stated checkin time. Just not customer oriented.

We had a great stay! The location is excellent.

great spacious room, friendly staff, easy check-in and check-out - very pleasant stay!

No food service

Cons: not all of the rooms are well maintained. When we first arrived the lock to our room needed new batteries (waited 25 min in hallway to get into room)

The gym was not giant but clean with well working equipment. Would have loved a hot tub!

We enjoyed our stay at Sonesta Bee Cave. The staff was friendly and efficient. The hotel was clean. It was very close to our grandson's DPS graduation so we had plenty of time with an easy drive.

Perfect

This was a great location. We will definitely stay here again. Looking forward to it. The only negative was the shower. The pitch on the curb to the shower was in the wrong direction which flooded with the bathroom.

This hotel was nice looking, but lacked in the areas that would actually make it a nice hotel. The hotel isn't bad, it is just priced above it's class, for me. I can accept some hair in the bathroom, but I would say this one had a lot more than most. Also, I kind of judge a hotel by how dirty the corners are, and oh my dog, the corners in the bathroom were disgusting. Overall, not a terrible stay, it was quiet, and it was a forgettable and uneventful experience. I was just there traveling with the kid's sports team and would have never bothered to leave a review, but this is the 3rd email asking for a review. Oh, I forgot, the elevator situation is stupid. There are no stairs and at 7PM we had to wait almost 10 minutes to get an elevator to our room! I think people were going to the restaurant, or maybe just their rooms, but it was a needless point of frustration.

Very nice

Excellent property! Went with our dog and everyone was so nice…

Loved the location of the hotel. Really cute spot! They don't clean your rooms unless you request it. I wasn't aware of that so for the duration of my stay my room didn't get cleaned.

Great

Everything Price.

I always stay here when I go into work and it's a top tier hotel

Amazing place to stay and great location

Unclean shower

The staff was great but the facility is starting to show its age.

Parking was convenient N/a

Wonderful staff and rooms surpassed our expectations

Best bartender (Alex) at the rooftop bar and all the staff was great!

There were people partying in the hallway and their room well past 2:30am….i didn’t sleep a wink.

Staff great and room clean as always

Clean room, excellent customer service

Very smooth check-in.

The service, the comfort of the room and the nearness to so many interesting places. Everything was great!

Too pricey

The light bulbs in the room were not the best and consequently the room ended up seeming slightly dim and dingy (it wasn't, the room was clean). The bathroom tub/shower

The staff are all very sweet and accommodating, the rooms were very clean, the property was very quiet and the bar was excellent

Timothy at the desk was extremely rude, unfriendly, and unprofessional during check in. It was extremely obvious that he hates his job and being customer facing.

Nice place!

Wonderful hotel

Convenient, super nice staff and comfy rooms! No reg coffee in room, fridge off and unplugged - coffee maker unplugged no plug near it - just irritating.

Yes

The wall behind the bed was filthy I had to clean it myself and the bedding was like sandpaper. I will not be staying her or any Sonesta hotel again.

Very nice

I loved the Location and it was very friendly. The Service at The Meridian 98 was despicable. The Poor waitress on Friday night was overwhelmed and very upset. We asked for Sprite 3 different times over 45 minutes. My husband asked for a drink 3 times the last time he went up to the bar and the bartender said she didn’t even have order.

Friendly staff and clean hotel

Overall an okay spot.

Short stay and didn't use any extra amenities, but staff upon check-in was fabulous! Room was clean, beds comfortable and overall quiet (and we were next to elevator). Definitely recommend and will stay again.

Staff is always great

Nice place

Clean, comfortable beds, friendly people

Morning coffee was free and very nice. The special coupons were well used.

My daughter is a competitive tennis player and there are high level tournaments in the vicinity of the Sonesta. It's a perfect hotel for these events, comfortable, quiet and clean. Situated in a mall with a Whole Foods and restaurants, so everything I need is close by. The Sonesta also has a great rooftop restaurant with healthy food options. I have no complaints, as long as I come back to the Austin area for junior tennis tournaments with my daughter, I'll be choosing the Bee Cave Sonesta.

The hotel is close to lots of shopping stores, it’s safe and quiet.

Checkin staff wasn’t very friendly or welcoming but did provide waters. Room was nice, pool was great, restaurant was excellent. Restaurant staff were super friendly.

The hotel is nice, and the location for the purpose of our trip was great Cleanliness left a lot to be desired. The bathroom floor had hair on it, shower too. Unacceptable. One morning we asked the front desk to send somebody to clean and they said they would, when we came back in the afternoon the room was not clean. We had to call housekeeping, they came later. Next morning, we noticed they didn’t even leave coffee, really? Not very happy about those things. The price is too high for what the hotel offers.

Hotel is nice, location great Bathroom not clean, and price is too high for what the hotel offers

It was a nice relaxing place to stay for a girls weekend with my daughter

The hotel was clean and staff were friendly

Near friends we were visiting.

Great place to stay quiet, easy parking and restaurants are within walking distance

We had a great time here. First the front desk staff upgraded our room with a pool view. We like their pool with nice view. And lastly they gave us some grace period check out. Overall I'll give them a 5 star!

It was close to alot of nice places and restaurants plus hiw extremely quiet it is and no issues at all with anyone. Loved the place and the look too. Very relaxing.

Cleanliness, and quiet. Appreciated the lovely pool and restaurant above. Great access to restaurants and shopping.

Pool was good, location was good

Great location and staff

Staff was amazing - very accommodating. Hotel was comfortable and quiet. Rooms were a good size. Breakfast was a ham egg and cheese croissant at their coffee shop.

Nice quiet place

Very close to the Greek Orthodox Church of the Transfiguration of Christ! Excellent restaurant on-site! Modern and comfortable!

We stayed here for an entire week while visiting family in Bee Cave. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and quiet. We were thankful to be able to walk easily to the mall and especially to Whole Foods. We will definitely be staying again.

Staff very accommodating and got a free upgrade!

Great stay. Perfect room and nice amenities.

Love this place. Sheets are so soft. Rooms are quiet. It’s clean. The staff is friendly. Good coffee.

Convenient walk to shops and dining.

Staff was above and beyond

Great location, very clean, very kind...

Great stay

What I didn't like... Automatically adding a "Destination Fee" and "Other Fee" to the bill. For what? To use the pool, bottled water at check-in, transportation to the Galleria which is 2 blocks away...give me a break.

Great place for a fun weekend enjoying all the the Galleria has to offer!

these guy are always great!
