Quick getaway to celebrate love. The hotel was very modern and luxurious. Saige the concierge was so helpful with things to do and wonderful place to eat. She made sure the room was set up and food fresh with our late arrival for check in. I love the hotel experiences!! The hotel bar and happy hour a plus. Also so close to walk to other places.

We had to wait in line a bit but it was Thanksgiving weekend so I assume that it is not always that busy. We will defiantly be back to stay at the Thompson our next visit to Austin. Read less

The Wedding venue at the hotel far exceeded my expectations. It was well organized and convenient to those of us traveling from various parts of the Country to participate in this special event. All in one location.
