Concierge "Long favored by cost-conscious artists and musicians, it's charming and hip without feeling pretentious."
Rough Guide "Basic rooms in a trendy old motel in the funky South Congress district. A favourite with visiting musicians, it’s across the street from the venerable Continental Club."
Gayot "Yes, this is a motel, but it has a fun, vibrant sense of style and is a far cry from typical, cheap chain digs."
BlackBook "This isn’t a motel masquerading as a Turkish steam bath. It’s just got a mad sense of humor to go with its mad South Congress Ave. location."
Fodor's "What used to be a fading 1938 motor court is now a beloved, quintessentially-Austin motel." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The Austin Motel's retro sign is a local icon." Full review
Not For Tourists "Funky hotel with theme rooms. Nice staff, cool location."
Afar Magazine " The 41 guest rooms are a retro mash-up of red vinyl tufted beds, silk-screened music posters, and kitschy lip-shaped rotary phones." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler Readers' Choice Award
"Hip hotelier Liz Lambert redesigned an Austin icon into exactly the kind of no-frills spot all the cool kids love." Full review
Frommer's "A convenient (but not quiet) location in the heart of SoCo and great rates make this place very popular." Full review
