Best Hotels near Molcas Mexican Restaurant, Austin

In the words of Bette Davis, “What a Dump.” In its favor, we had a nice view of Lady Bird Lake from our window, which was pretty to wake up to, and the water pressure in the shower was great! The bathroom seemed partially updated and was pretty decent. Free parking, too. There were a few HBO channels on tv. However, the hotel is very dated and not very clean looking. The indoor parking garage was filthy and was dimly lit. Didn’t feel very safe in there, so we parked in the outside lot whenever possible. No greeting from the night time desk clerk when we came back from dinner, as she seemed to purposely be avoiding eye contact with us (she wasn’t on the phone or busy with someone else). The elevators were very smudgy and too dark, also. The beds slumped a bit in the middle, the linens were old and tired looking, and the chair in the corner looked worse than some I’ve put by the curb. An old leak on the ceiling was poorly patched up, and there were stains on the desk chair, carpet and walls. The door to the adjoining room didn’t provide enough sound proofing, as I heard our neighbor’s phone convo loud and clear. The pool area didn’t look very inviting, as there were no umbrellas or trees to block the strong sun. We wanted to stay in downtown Austin to be within walking distance to things, so this was the least expensive option. But not much could be walked to from there, and the area it was in was a bit sketchy, so we ended up taking Ubers, anyway. We had booked our last night at a hotel in the Arboretum area, because this one went up to a ridiculously high amount for Friday night (music festival in town), and it ended up being just as convenient to take an Uber from there (15-20 mins) to downtown. Plus, the hotel was much nicer and way less expensive. Live and learn.

The check-in and out was smooth. Our stay is ok, the room is quite small but bed is comfy. The breakfast option was nice but the next day, we woke up a bit late, we joined buffet breakfast at 8:30AM but most of the food were gone and was not replaced. The location is good, near N. Lamar Ave and I-35 which is accesible to Downtown Austin.

Last minute search for a rooms as I would be attending TASSP conference in Austin and our campus secretary found this chain. I arrived late to the hotel and it became a whose on first skit with the clerk. After that crazy chasing of my tail happened, I had a choice park on the street ot lay $30 a night in the hotel parking area. Walking into my room on the second floor and you get that very old carpet and stale air. It's best if you take your soap and shampoo and most importantly your shower shoes don't walk barefooted in the room. The room has an ironing board and iron but the board is not steady. The temperature in the room can be at extremes so careful when you adjust the temperature. This hotel is a long walk from convention center and you need to pass homeless area. I didn't have a good experience at this hotel.

We arrived after driving from Dallas and were checked in by Ranee. What a delight, this is how you do hospitality and welcome guests. We instantly relaxed. Great room and facilities, the lobby bar team are experienced and friendly without obviously tip shopping. We have enjoyed our first Westin and it won't be the last

Our stay at the Hyatt Regency on our wedding night was phenomenal! We were hoping for maybe some champagne or something special since it was our wedding night, but it was still a great experience overall. We had an amazing view and great service throughout the night there. Would definitely stay again!

First I’ll say that the older man at the front desk was wonderful. He was so helpful and kind and was able to get me very early check-in which ended up saving my goose for the day and enabled me to get some sleep when I really needed it. The lobby is beautiful but unfortunately the room itself was just not. The bathroom was very small and tight and just felt a little off. The thermostat in the bedroom was broken and because of that it was very muggy in the room for my whole stay. The room had a strong musty smell and the sheets felt off somehow. Very rough and stiff. The remote was under the bed when I arrived which made me suspicious so I just left it there. It definitely didn’t seem to have been cleaned between visitors. The carpet could definitely use a deep cleaning. Lots of marks and paint chips on the walls. No overhead light in the room but several lamps. I took a nap and then woke up to find a cluster of black hair in the sheets. I am a platinum blonde so this was disturbing to me. Then as I was heading out for the day, I noticed a small bug in my hair. I ended up going to a friend’s house in the city to take a hot shower because the bathroom was, as I said, very narrow and small. After the hair in the sheets, I ended up opting to just sleep at the friend’s house because I was so grossed out. It was amazing to be able to check in so early and have a safe place to nap, but for $245 for a night, it was definitely not what I’d hoped for, especially for a Hilton.

The Tommie Coffee Bar is absolutely incredible! Every time I go to this coffee shop the coffee is delicious (I love their hot lattes especially) and the baristas are so friendly and kind. I go quite often and love getting to see Arrian and Jessie they always brighten my day — Both of them are so friendly and bring a smile to my face always. Also the chocolate chip cookies are next level delish! I am so thankful to live in a building with such an incredible coffee shop and baristas!

Good location but room slightly dated
