Pros

17th-floor rooftop offers exclusive views of three Austin landmarks

Multiple dining venues within 0.5 miles, including Sushi Junai and Gabriel's Cafe

Walking distance to major attractions like State Capitol vista and Harry Ranson Center

Private parking available on-site

Cons

6.5 miles distance from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport

Limited outdoor recreational spaces on the property

“The Hilton Garden Inn's rooftop views struck me; that panorama of the University and downtown Austin is remarkable, and the on-site bar clearly adds a social buzz. I noted a few comments around inconsistent service and parking fees, but the room size and the location near the Moody Center are definite pluses; for me, the location and amenities are the strongest draws.”
