I arrived at main entrance to check in. Before I had time to get out of the car, valet staff approved me and asked if I was checking in and I was told to drive into the parking garage to unload the luggage. I did and found that there was no lobby entrance from inside the garage. While my son went inside to get a cart for the luggage, I called the hotel and explained the situation and a bellman was sent to the garage to help me. I told Mary Jo or Mary Ann (not sure on the name) and the bellman that it was not a good look for Hilton Hotel. I could hear Mary laughing at the situation which I was not happy about but did not call her out on it. After I settled in the room, I decided not to let the unpleasant experience ruin my trip but to leave a review instead.

Don’t stay here unless you’re fine with spending extra unnecessary money. They charge you $53 just to park and that’s only if you have your key. It’s 60 something without it. They will also charge you $75 if you want a late checkout which only adds 2 hours. They ALSO charge you if you want breakfast. Valet is also $50 something. It can be confusing trying to find the building cause it’s surrounded by construction. It was also sketchy even just leaving the building. And on top of all that the staff could’ve been nicer. The interactions were very low energy and not welcoming. It was a nice room but the unnecessary charges ruined part of the stay. Will never be staying at a Hilton again.

Two good restaurants on site and a Starbucks. Room was clean, the beds were super comfy and the room included a small fridge. AC worked well too.

I’m not sure what was up with the elevators but although it had six, I never saw or heard more than two working at a time which caused a huge amount of backup most of the time. And you need your room key to operate it which was a huge pain for many people.

Overall, it was good stay and the staff are super!

Construction nearby made it uncomfortable to get in and out of property.
Buffet breakfast wasn't the best and seating was limited.
Hotel was clean and staff very helpful, but we've stayed at many Hiltons and this one was not up too par.

It’s such an elegant hotel. I have never stayed in something so bougie before. The staff was welcoming and helpful and they gave me a rundown of the place. The people staying there helped me find my room because I had no idea what floor I was on. I used uber a lot and the pickup area was breezy and quick. If you need anything you just have to call we wanted blankets and walked to the front desk unaware that we could’ve called. Everything is clean and it smelled amazing. 10/10 stay!

Hotel was LOUD. It was loud well beyond quiet hours (2am). Yet our normal conversation speaking volume was enough to prompt our neighbor to complain and security to give us a warning at 11pm. Just crazy.

There was some dance competition in town so a lot of young people having fun. We didn’t mind but our neighbor was apparently an asshat and the hotel was ridiculous for bothering us.

Not a nice feeling, we aren’t loud obnoxious people.

The stay was horrible. We went for a dance competition and this was the host hotel for the competition. The hotel booked 3 fraternities to have their formal. They only had three working elevators so the wait time for elevators was insane. Check out time on Sunday was ridiculous when waiting for an elevator. Will never stay there again. I don’t recommend it.

This hotel has really gone downhill. It was Valentine's weekend and also the Austin Marathon was going on. The hotel booked some Texas A&M event the same weekend as well. It was at 100% capacity. This should be fine - a hotel should be able to be full and run without issues. However, it was not okay. They have six elevators of which only two were operational. TWO!!!! It took over 45 minutes to just get up to our room once we checked in (14th floor so stairs not possible with suitcases) and then when we needed to head down for dinner out (had 7:30pm reservations) we left our room at 6:30p to be sure to catch an elevator down…we were late for our reservation and almost lost it —on Valentine’s Day!!! So then the breakfast that we paid an extra $50 for, it ended at 10am, so we went to head down at 9am, never made it. By 9:50am, we went back and grabbed all our things and just left the room. We finally had to call down and complain until they sent a freight elevator to get us. It took us 1 hour 48 minutes to get OUT of the hotel.

Horrible experience. I will NEVER return. If you cannot operate basic functions at full capacity, then you DO NOT BOOK TO THAT LEVEL!!! And worst part, I’ve STILL not heard back from Hilton about it - it’s officially been over month today - crickets!!!!

I liked the hotel, but I stayed for 3 nights and 4 of 6 elevators were not working for 2 days and 6 of 6 not working for 1 day. I was on the 23rd floor so stairs were not a good option while I was traveling for work and in a suit and heels. We were required to use the service elevators which stopped on every floor and full after a couple of stops. The workers who needed the service elevators were more annoyed than the guests. I asked for some type of discount since I was paying $370 per night and was offered 10,000 Hilton points worth about $50. Who cares about that, it simply makes me not want to stay at a Hilton again.

The hand towels were stained with another guest's make up. Totally gross. no blanket in the room. Was told by front desk person that had i reserved a suite, it would have come with a blanket. Train your people Hilton...really?? It's the customer's fault?? The noise level at this hotel is completely unacceptable. Lastly, the beds and pillows are terrible. Had staff been trained properly, he would have simply apologized and offered us breakfast, which I would have declined.

I stayed at the Austin Hilton President Day weekend for the Austin Half Marathon and, even though the hotel is nice with spacious rooms, the experience was disappointing.

Out of six elevators, only two were working from Friday through Monday. I understand things break, but that led to long waits all weekend. More frustrating was the service. I had to call twice on separate nights to have my room cleaned, and the front desk line was consistently long, even just to pick up a bag they were holding for us.

The only response to the elevator issue was offering snacks at the front desk, which didn’t feel like much given the inconvenience. Overall, I expected better service.

Everything was great, except the elevator situation. Me and my partner were just in for a weekend getaway and they had a lot of events and conventions going on this weekend that with the influx of people staying at the hotel became and issue with the elevators. There were only 2 working elevators out of 6. In some cases we had to use the service elevators which wasn’t an issue but was something we had to wait for until enough people were standing waiting for long periods. Staff was great & patient!

Hotel has 9 elevators and only 2 were working. We were on the 18th floor, every-time we had to go down or up, the wait time would be around 10-15 mins to catch an elevator and then we’ll be stopping at every floor for people trying to catch the elevator.
When I was going to checkout, i asked for a complementary credit/reimbursement. The lady who assisted us told us that if we were Hilton rewards member that she could give us a $50 credit/ 10k points. But if not, I could spend another 30min to 1hr with a rep to become a rewards member.
They seemed to be in a bad mood whenever you’ll ask for assistance or information at the front dest.
The only one that seemed polite and that was enjoying her job was the hispanic lady doing the housekeeping.
Terrible experience over all for the price we paid to stay.

Tried to check in at 5pm and the line was 20 people deep with no staff at the check-in counter. The Hilton honors line had 2 staff members that only assisted the Hilton honors guests. Waited for over 30 minutes until a staff member came over to start checking in the line.

Only 2 of the 6 elevators were working due to “high volume.” Consistently had to wait for 15-20 minutes for an elevator. Lines were long in the lobby and on each floor for the elevator with some guests opting to sneak on to the service elevator instead.

Valet was atrocious. Tried to text for our car as the ticket said - but got an auto text back that it couldn’t be accommodated and we needed to present our ticket. We were told 20 minute wait for our car but ended up waiting for over 45 minutes.

Terrible experience. Hilton was clearly not staffed appropriately or prepared for a busy weekend.

No glass shower despite them saying there would be one. Sauna, hot tub, pool and steam room were nice touches as was the gym. The restaurants had good food but not very reasonably priced for the portions. Staff was friendly but not very helpful. Starbucks was a nice touch. Easy to find. Next to 6th street which was a very loud party heavy street which I didn’t love, but maybe for others it wouldn’t be that bad. Construction next doors made constant noise other than in the middle of the night (could hear it from the high floors). Would’ve loved if rooftop bar / restaurant was open during my stay.
