Top Central East Austin Hotel Reviews

The Code Hotel

8/10 Good

"Everything was great very spacious place. Great location. We had to wait 45 minutes for the room to be ready other then that I give it 10/10"

Hotel Van Zandt

8/10 Good

"Great stay on what was a very busy Austin weekend (ASL). Staff was to a person friendly, helpful and accommodating even if the trip started out with a hiccup when the room we paid an upgrade for had been given away. Bummer. Bar and restaurant on site were good. Beds comfortable. Nice showers. Would stay here again."

Placemakr Austin Downtown, Apartments by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great place to stay and conveniently located. The staff are helpful and very friendly. I love how it was right by the river walk. I could go for a run every morning. It is a newer property. The room was clean and comfortable. It was nice to have a small kitchen and sitting area. For the price, I feel parking should be included and not extra."
