    Great location. Efficient valet service even though it was Easter weekend when we arrived so extremely busy. Rooms clean, well equipped, lovely touch of Dyson hairdryer, Aesop toiletries and clothes steamer. Beds extremely comfortable. We didn’t use any of the restaurants as they were a little pricey to use for our whole stay as family of four, but plenty of options a short walk from the hotel.

I would’ve been better off at just a Marriott.

    The location was wonderful for our short 2-day business trip. We were able to walk around the downtown area, walk down by the river and across to the park. There were plenty of restaurants, night life, and shopping. We felt safe in the area around the hotel. The room size was a bit cramped. This was offset by a nice view and lovely amenities within the room (e.g., automatic blinds, wonderful shower with strong water pressure, nicely scented soaps, and Apple TV enable TV). There was plenty of storage, plus a comfortable bed and pillows.

    The hotel's restaurants were outstanding, offering exceptional dining experiences. The room featured modern, tasteful decor that created a comfortable and stylish atmosphere. The spacious fitness area was well-equipped with a wide variety of machines, and the spa was a delightful bonus that added to the overall relaxation. While the hotel had many great features, cleanliness was noticeably lacking. The floors, particularly in the bathroom and along the edges of the room, felt sticky, and the bed sheets were uncomfortably rough. The fitness center was especially unclean, with a visible layer of dirt on the floor. Before using the exercise mats, I wiped them down with the provided disinfecting towelettes, which came away black—clearly indicating they hadn’t been properly cleaned. Although the front desk staff were friendly, they offered minimal guidance regarding the hotel’s facilities and directions, which made navigating the amenities a bit challenging.

    Having stayed at Proper Santa Monica I definitely wanted to book this hotel. It was just as good as the Proper hotel in Santa Monica. Wonderful reception, nice drinking and dining options, fantastic food and drink, and wonderful ambience. The gym is among the best hotel gyms I have ever been to. And I'm picky about gyms! Nothing. This is a great hotel

    The Austin proper is super beautiful. I booked this stay as I was intrigued by the Pilates and yoga offered at the property and called early to reserve some classes but was told to do so at the property. When I got there, I was told they had no class offerings for that time which was a big let down as it was the main reason I booked this hotel. The breakfast was amazing but the room service dinner was overpriced and underwhelming. Otherwise, the overall aesthetic and interior design are top tier. In room products are luxurious and attention to detail was on point.

    Here's what I loved: Design: The Kelly Wearstler interiors are a highlight, creating a luxurious and memorable atmosphere. Every detail, from the lobby to the rooms, is thoughtfully curated. Rooms: Spacious and comfortable, with high-quality amenities and those oh-so-Instagrammable bathrooms. Dining: The on-site restaurants, particularly the Mediterranean-inspired Peacock, offer delicious food and a vibrant ambiance. Location: Situated in the Second Street District, you're within walking distance of many of Austin's top attractions. Amenities: The rooftop pool and bar offer stunning city views, perfect for a relaxing afternoon or evening.

    Modern hotel in great downtown location. Lovey choice of bars and restaurants onsite. My wife used the Verbena Spa and exclaimed it was one of the bet treatments she had ever had. Lovely touch receiving a bottle of prosecco delivered to the room on arrival. The Quill Room was a lovely bar - good for some lite bites and drinks. Roof top pool and swim up bar was a nice sun trap - staff were very attentive and made sure we were well looked after. The ground floor bar and restaurant areas were very very busy at nights - uncomfortably so as a hotel resident making it less inviting space to spend any time in.

    The Austin proper is a thoughtfully curated space. The rooms are exceptionally comfortable and the shared spaces of the hotel are beautiful. The restaurants and bars of the hotel provide exceptional experiences and excellent quality food. While anyone can plan to have an enjoyable and relaxing visit to the Austin proper, the locals flock to the restaurants of the hotel in the evening, and it does get quite busy. This is a great place to mingle and meet young professionals, so do not plan to enjoy a quiet cocktail at the bar.

    If I wanted to stay in a basic room with subpar service there are a lot cheaper options. The blinds do not even cover the windows, far from blackout as advertised. Michael who checked us in said I can free dessert, well that’s far from the price differential for a balcony suite on a Saturday night during acl. I asked to speak with the manager he said he’s the only one here, later to tell me he’s actually the front desk assistant. I got no sleep due to the windows not being completely covered. The entire reason I booked this room is for the balcony.

    Definitely not a 5 star hotel. The service is 3.5 stars at best. It cannot be held in the same league as other 5 star hotels like Four Seasons or Grand Hyatt. It seems all the attention was put into the design of the hotel but they forgot to train the staff in the art of service. Optical illusion, all surface with no depth.
