The W is a great hotel. I love the pool here. Make sure and request a high floor room. The restaurant Trace is very good. Great place to go with friends on a weekend night. Go to the Red Room. Valet parking is a little steep.

The hotel lobby and bar area are very nice; cool, chic and modern. That is, of course, if you can get in. On Friday and Saturday nights the "Living Room" as the onsite bar is called seems to the THE trendy hotspot for all, and I mean ALL the twentysomethings in greater Austin. Not bad if you are a twentysomething,... More

I loved my stay at The W Austin! I stayed in a "cozy" room, but it was not too small at all. I highly recommend trying out the gym and the spa during your stay. I used the gym everyday and indulged in the Over the Hills and Far Away spa treatment which was the best spa treatment I have... More

Let me preface this review with saying that no one loves a hip place more than I do, however, this was just crazy. From the moment we checked in on a Friday night until it seemed to get better on Sunday night, This place was just nuts. We could barely walk in the front door when we got there because... More

This place is so money they don't even know there money. The location is walking to everything you need. Austin City Limits (basically a rock n roll hall of fame and stage) is attached. Food, Spa and Service was as good as I've ever had Anywhere. I left a Bettanin Venturi Wingtip Shoe in my room and it was on... More

I truly enjoyed my recent stay here. Great atmosphere and the employees are very courteous and helpful. I would stay here again. The spa and gym are outstanding. Gym is the nicest of all the hotels I've stayed at.

I was a guest at the “W” in Austin from May 4-8 and was thoroughly impressed by the level of service and attention to detail displayed by the staff at this hotel. I noticed that even the dust rugs in front of the elevators were changed three times each day because when going to breakfast the rugs displayed “Good Morning”;... More
