Top The Vortex Hotel Reviews
Fairmont Austin
10/10 Excellent
"Pool looked bigger in the picture but still a nice size pool for summer time. Super busy on Saturdays"
"The beds were extremely comfortable, I slept so good! Bkfst was great! Parking in garage was extra but worth it. Close enough to UT campus so I wasn’t stressed about getting my son to orientation and having to drive in an unfamiliar city. "
"The staff were great, and the location was perfect—within walking distance to a variety of restaurants in downtown. We really enjoyed the vibrant street nightlife. Austin is a beautiful city filled with happy, welcoming people. My family loves spending weekends in downtown Austin, and we definitely plan to return."
Hilton Garden Inn Austin University Capitol District
10/10 Excellent
"Everything about my stay here was excellent except the bartenders in the bar on 6/28. Came back to the hotel and waited at the bar for like almost 15 minutes before I was finally acknowledged. There were two bartenders and every customer at the full bar had drinks. The male bartender wasn't doing much while the lady was slowly doing little things. He noticed I was patiently waiting and kept just passing me up. Finally the lady bartender took my order and then had the nerve to ask if I wanted change. Of course, I said yes! There was no way I was going to tip her $5 for two beers from such poor customer service. "
