Virgin rating

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.

Kudos to my server, Biggy, at Fulton. He's the game changer! His recommendation of the spicy passion fruit margarita was truly refreshing, adding a delightful twist to my dining experience. Biggy's attentive service and spot-on suggestions made my evening memorable. Can't wait to return for another unique cocktail
