Close to the convention center and entertainment on 6th st. The rooms were very quiet. The hotel overall lacked a feel of austin for some reason. Seemed a little generic to me. Did have a dirty area in the room that required cleaning on checkin and it was promtly attended to. Downstairs bar area and kitchen were open late which was a plus. Coffee shop in lobby also helpful. Moonshines bar/grill across the street is one of our favorite spots. Meetings were going on and the after hours security at the elevators was appreciated. The hilton overall was a quiet/pleasant stay in a good spot and a decent price. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r624132 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r539271 I love this hotel. I stay there every year for a conference that should be a nightmare. The people the staff have to deal with... But they treat me like a princess from the moment I walk in the door. They are helpful, friendly, generous... I would never expect this level of service (5 star) from a conference hotel and I refuse to stay anywhere else in Austin. Because it's a conference there are other options, less expensive. The Hilton books first because of its proximity to the convention center. They needn't be so accommodating and yet, they always are. The rooms are spotless, the service is sincerely warm and friendly, and it all makes for a lovely week, every year. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r539271 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r1101947 pros: comfort, great staff, poolMy boyfriend and I booked a room here for a weekend on priceline and got a great price! The bedding was ridiculously comfortable and there was a great flat screen tv and ipod player/alarm clock. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable and very helpful as we were in town for a wedding and needed our clothes to be pressed. the only con was that we thought we were going to be able to walk to 6th street but didn't want to walk that far (it's really not that far but there's a bridge) however, the cab ride wasn't expensive at all. The pool was really nice as well, i believe it was a saltwater pool and is literally next to the river. I will definitely stay here the next time im in town. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r1101947 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r539272 From the moment we got there, the service was great. Very clean throughout the hotel. Very nice room. We have no complaints...plan to stay here if we return to Austin! http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r539272 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r931815 The hotel was clean with luxurious common areas.I believe the staff could have been friendlier.“This hotel is very centric, walking distance from clubs, bars, and great restaurants in downtown Austin. The common areas are luxurious and well kept. Rooms are decent and clean.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r931815 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r931816 Great location.Shower was ridiculous. Knocked so loud you could not hear the TV if you were in the room.“Beautiful hotel in a great location. Had shuttle service to the UT game - definite plus! Need plumbing assistance our shower knocked, as did others that we could hear as we walked down the corridor. Sounded like air in the pipes the whole time we were there.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r931816 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r931817 Nicely appointed rooms.Bathroom had mold on the bathroom grout.“Staff was very accommodating. The convenience to the Austin flavor is perfect. I will stay with this Hilton again.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r931817 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r931818 Very clean andvery close to the bars.I did not like having topay for internet.“If you are going to Austin to go to a football game or to hang out on 6th Street, this is the hotel for you! Very close to all the downtown Austin Action. You won't even have to take a cab. Highly recommended!” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r931818 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r931819 “Parking was $25 - seemed excessive.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r931819 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r931820 It had a cool gift shop.The staff was less then inviting, and they gave up wrong directions twice.“The facility was nice, what you would expect from a Hilton. The parking there was really a pain and way too expensive. The staff was not inviting and couldn't give directions.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Hilton_Austin/r931820
