Nice accommodations and a great location

The staff at The The Stehen F Austin were very attentative and friendly. The rooms and hotel itself was clean. The only issue we had were the hallways to the rooms and elevators were warm with no air conditioning. If you enjoy staying in a historical hotel with classic architecture and nice, comfortable rooms with a great location in Downtown Austin. The Stephen F Austin Hotel is a bargain price.

Beautiful hotel. Definitely a great value, enjoyed the wonderful bar music / terrace, and good restaurant. The hotel is kept very nice and although we had air conditioning issues our last night, the staff tried to help fix the next day. Breakfast across the street is better.
