The hotel

If you’re wandering through the central business district, you won’t be able to miss the Fairmont Austin, it’s 37-storey building being a towering icon set amid lush green surroundings. This makes for fantastic views from all room types, particularly with the floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking the dramatic cityscape and the Lady Bird Lake. The 7th floor terrace plays host to the spacious pool with cabanas and poolside bar and restaurant, all with a city centre backdrop. All the best that Austin has to offer is within walking distance, with the popular Rainey Street just two blocks away for a host of bars and restaurants. You don’t need to leave the hotel to experience quality food though, with 5 dining options available to you, all offering something a bit different.

I really enjoyed a manicure/ pedicure with Audra. She was so attentive to detail and the result was perfection. The room was a delight, too, and the overall decor of the place was absolutely enchanting. This was a fun and effortless place to stay. I can't wait to return.

Room was nice. The service was fine. We had an issue with noise in the first room that we had but the hotel quickly moved us to a quieter room. The food at Garrison was very good. Unfortunately we were there doing a UT game so it was very crowded and getting in and out took time because of the traffic.

The staff were all so helpful with anything our group needed. They were professional, kind, and got the job done. They helped us find a place to have a quick meeting. I lost something and two different people went to look for it. Being on the concierge floor meant we had access to wonderful staff and delicious food. I’d like to thank Anna, Dine,… Read more

Upon entering the hotel lobby and checking in, Yusuf greeted me with a wonderful smile. He was very helpful in explaining all the amenities the hotel has to offer and making sure my stay would be nothing but pleasant. Wonderful hotel, and always my home away from home when I’m in Austin.
