Top Rainey Street Historic District Hotel Reviews

Hyatt House Austin/Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"I really enjoyed my stay, the room was very comfortable and in fact, it was great as it had many kitchen amenities on a small scale. I slept well. The hall was quiet and I didn’t hear people above me. Valet service was marvelous, and the staff was very helpful."

Cambria Hotel Austin Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at Cambria for a long weekend and absolutely loved it! The location was perfect for it was central to many tourist attractions! It was very clean. The custodial crew did a wonderful job each day! We enjoyed many food items on the menu, especially breakfast. The bar was a cozy spot, and we were always waited on in a timely manner. The pool area was clean and enjoyable! All in all, our stay was so much fun! We will be back."

ROOST Rainey

8/10 Good

"Roost was a awesome stay , the only complaint that I have is the parking situation. There is no signage and it could be a bit confusing when first arriving at the property. There were multiple people having the same issue trying to find the location of the parking garage but other than that, the location is awesome and I would definitely stay again."

Austin Condo Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I absolutely loved the property and location. Everything was positive but a couple things. One the light switch turned off all the power outlets and manual would be great inside the unit with instructions. Next, there was not one single hanger, and I don't know anyone who travels with their own hangers for all their clothes. I thought this was odd and I think hanger should be provided in the closets. Other than that, it was excellent and the staff at the check-in was very helpful."
