This hotel is just ok. It isn’t quite up to Westin standards in my opinion. The location is convenient and staff was helpful, but the property is showing some wear and tear.

I had a wonderful stay at The Westin Austin Downtown! The hotel was beautiful, clean, and very comfortable. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and professional, and the location was perfect for enjoying downtown Austin. I especially loved the atmosphere and how relaxing the entire stay felt. Everything from check-in to check-out went smoothly. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it!

I had a really nice stay! The rooftop bar and pool have beautiful views, especially at night, and the staff were very friendly. Valet parking is on a busy street and got a little hectic during the busy weekend, but the staff handled it quickly. The wait was short, and they got us our car and on our way very efficiently.

The door to my hotel room didn’t close properly. Additionally I was having Sunday Brunch at the restaurant on the ground floor of the hotel. When I got up to use the restroom, a homeless person walked into the restaurant and stole my entree.

Fine hotel in middle of downtown. Walk to everything. Staff professional and helpful. Bar and restaurant scene vibrant during evenings. Rooftop bar with excellent views. Rooftop "pool" is more of a decoration, not a place to swim. Beds and linens comfortable. Room temp control quiet and consistent.

Rooftop pool bar very relaxed area friendly staff, and the hotel is a great location just a couple of minutes to 6th street. Parking was a bit chaotic, there is a valet service but as we arrived at a busy time we have to do a lap of the block.

The parking/valet a bit disastrous with all the construction and it was extremely noisy due to location. Other than that was fine.

Restaurant is a great place to meet people and had a good menu. Hit the fresh oyster bar, super tasty ! The rooftop pool was a cool place to hang and socialize or to just relax and have some solitude. The gym was good enough to get a good daily workout in. very friendly and accommodating staff. Definitely staying there again !

We liked The Azul Rooftop Bar. The swimming pool was nice, but we would have expected a larger pool with more seating around the pool. However, the scenic views of downtown Austin were striking. It was even more beautiful at night.

My family went for a business summit. The place is clean and beautiful. Right in the heart of downtown. Accessible to many food places. Staff are amazing and accommodating. Food and drinks are great. I just wish the pool was open later than 10pm especially in weekend. It’s such a nice party place on the rooftop

The bad: hotel lost power for no apparent reason for an hour or so. Elevator service was spotty at best The pool was way over crowded and filthy. The hotel doesn’t claim ownership of this pool even though it sits on their roof. They allow folks to come in that aren’t staying at the hotel which accounts for the overcrowding

I’ve stayed here a few times and always had a great experience so this bad stay was probably a one off. The valet said they would charge my car but they didn’t and they parked it on the street outside under a tree all night resulting in a bunch of bird poop (one whole side was covered in it). I’ll be honest in that I wasn’t expecting them to charge my car until they offered but if you say you’re going to do something just do it.
- 5/5
Everything was amazing about this hotel. The only thing is the pool is small, which is totally fine, but was a little murky even early in the afternoon. I just think it should be cleaned a little more often with the amount of traffic in and out for what we pay to stay at this wonderful hotel.

Honestly, I had mid-level expectations of this hotel. But I must admit that my expectations were exceeded. I am a stickler for cleanliness and the Westin was clean. We had a chance to enjoy the roof top pool/bar and the staff was friendly. I would definitely go back and/or recommend.

Westin was close to everything downtown. There is even a little food truck area right next to the hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful. There is a small coffee bar at the restaurant that you can purchase coffee. There are other coffee options not too far.

The biggest issue was housekeeping. We had to repeatedly ask multiple times throughout the day just to get our room cleaned, even though we did NOT have the privacy tag on the door. It became frustrating having to constantly follow up for something that should have been routine. What made the experience worse was the condition of the lobby bathrooms. They were honestly disgusting. Trash and paper towels were overflowing onto the floor, and one of the toilets was left in an unsanitary condition. For a downtown hotel that markets itself as upscale, this was unacceptable and reflected very poorly on overall maintenance and cleanliness. The location is convenient, but unfortunately the service and cleanliness issues overshadowed the stay. I expected much better attention to detail and hospitality from a Westin property.

Best hotel stay ever!!! They really know how to make your stay enjoyable. Kendall at the front desk deserves a gold star. She definitely made our stay a positive experience. I would highly recommend this hotel for your stay in Austin

The biggest issue during our stay was the valet service. I understand hotels can get busy and handle a high volume of guests, but the wait times were extremely excessive and frustrating. We regularly use valet services when we travel and have honestly never experienced delays and customer service like this before. Communication was poor, the process felt disorganized, and getting our vehicle took far longer than expected multiple times during our stay. What made the experience even more disappointing was the lack of assistance with luggage. While unloading and loading our bags, the valet staff stood nearby watching without offering any help, yet it still felt like a tip was expected. We still tipped because we appreciate service industry workers, but the overall experience did not match the level of hospitality you would expect from a hotel in this price range. Overall, the hotel itself has potential, but the valet experience alone would make us think twice before staying here again.

Not as pet friendly as what you would want, partly because of the location in the city, but also just the feel of the place, unless your dog is tiny (can be carried), suggest not trying to bring them. My biggest concern was the fact that I booked with Expedia and got multiple double charges from the hotel. Took multiple calls with Expedia agents and multiple visits to the front desk before getting told it’s fixed, still awaiting “pending charges” to either undo or correct, so be careful checking your final bill. One of my dogs actually ate something dodgy from likely the many homeless people roaming the area and actually had a really scary episode inside the hotel so we left early, another reason to maybe just leave a dog at home.

The front desk customer service at the Westin Downtown Austin was amazing! Deja (I apologize if I misspelled your name) truly deserves recognition. She was incredibly polite, friendly, and took the time to answer all of my questions and concerns without hesitation. Her professionalism and positive attitude really took our experience over the top. Because of her excellent service, I will definitely be coming back. Thank you for making our stay even better!

The hotel was in good condition but there was absolutely nothing special about it. As we were leaving our room for the day the housekeeper was in the hallway next to our room and about to make up our room next. My husband spoke to her in Spanish and told her how much we appreciated her and we gave her a tip and told her we would be out for the day. When we returned at 9pm NOTHING had been done to our room. She took the tip and ran. I can certainly make up our own bed but all of our towels were dirty and on the bathroom floor and we had to call down and wait for new towels. I know things happen and it’s a minor inconvenience but it’s that she took the tip and took off and didn’t do anything to our room. Then when we did get back to our room we had to listen to two dogs in the room next door bark nonstop for the next two hours until their owners returned. We called the front desk and they had already been made aware of the situation by someone else and were doing all they can but that combined with the dishonest housekeeper and the $75 per night valet is just enough for us to not visit again. We live in Houston and visit Austin 3-4 times a year and will be going back to the Fairmont on our next visits.
