"Two miles north of the university...is this large, five-story hotel decorated in the style of a Mexican hacienda. ... Guest quarters are airy and spacious, if a bit dull."

"Staffers are casual and pleasant at this friendly property, where the staff is about as sweet as the cookies at check-in. Don't expect luxury. This place is all about moderate rates and convenience."

"This handsome and historic downtown hotel is Austin’s swankiest choice, with an opulent marble lobby and updated rooms."

If you can’t afford to stay here, drop by the lobby bar for a mid-afternoon whiskey sour.

"Double balconies, arched windows and a hand laid marble lobby floor made downtown Austin's grandest hotel into a frontier palace."
