Hilton Garden Inn Austin Downtown-Convention Center - An 18-story hotel with rooftop dining and European-style pool in Downtown Austin

Located in Downtown Austin's beating heart, this 3-star Austin hotel features an 18th-floor restaurant offering 360-degree skyline views and Texas cuisine. The Hilton Garden Inn's European-style wading pool includes a waterfall and lush vegetation. All rooms include 42-inch HDTVs, microwaves, mini-refrigerators, and premium bedding. The property houses a 24-hour fitness center with a separate aerobics room and a 24-hour business center. Over 9800 square feet of meeting space meets International Association of Conference Centers standards. The 24/7 Pavilion Pantry stocks sundries, drinks, and frozen meals. The Hilton Garden places guests 0.3 miles from 6th Street's nightlife, 1.2 miles from the Blanton Museum of Art, and 1.2 miles from the University of Texas at Austin. Austin-Bergstrom International Airport is 25 minutes away by car.

Pros

18th-floor restaurant provides unobstructed 360-degree views of downtown Austin

European-style wading pool features a waterfall and vegetation

Located within 0.3 miles of multiple dining options including Easy Tiger and Koriente

Custom wallpaper with organic patterns adds distinctive design elements

Cons

Airport transfer takes 35-40 minutes by public transportation

Lobby has low ceilings and experiences constant guest traffic

“In my opinion, this hotel is a practical choice for visitors to Austin's downtown core; the rooftop bar offers great city views, while the fitness facilities appear modern and well-equipped. Valet parking, while convenient, comes at a steep price, so budget-conscious guests may want to consider alternatives; the rooms are spacious, but some may find the decor a bit bland. Overall, a decent but not exceptional option, especially for business travelers who prioritize location and amenities.”
