Gorgeous property and very helpful staff. Loved the comfy beds and spacious rooms with great views. As a solo traveler, I felt very safe. Highly recommend!!
Went there to attend the Austin theatre of magic show in room 725 and was not disappointed, The hotel was well staffed and very clean. The wait staff in the bar was also excellent. Would definitely recommend the magic show ( it was awesome) they used the audience in a few of their sketches, very well done.
What a beautiful place the Fairmont Austin is. We had two separate reservations due to one being a family event, and one for a birthday. They were able to accommodate it and make sure that the room did not need to be moved. Also they surprised us with a cake and drinks to celebrate the birthday. I will highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to visit Austin.
Fairmont is my favorite Austin Hotel. The property is kept immaculately; service is always great. It has the best pool in Austin. All the amenities add up to a great visit!
The hotel personnel were very welcoming, accommodating, and supportive. The room was superb; the food was great. The pool service was a bit odd and slow, but it was a minor hiccup compared to the overall impression. I'm definitely happy I chose this hotel!
