Hilton Austin

Great hotel under renovation

Contras: The renovations on the main hotel level were unexpected and, when done, will no doubt be places to see and be seen...this trip though, could be provided at a discount.

Austin Hilton (beware non-honors members)

Prós: Hotel was nice, close to everything, view from 19th floor was really nice facing 6th street. Nice fridge in the room and room was comfortable. Parking was easy although pricey. was a nice stay

Contras: Don't want to be overly negative here as I had a good stay, however couple things I like to point out. Movies are expensive to rent from on-demand most people probably won't, but 20 bucks seems high to me. (This unfortunately left a bad taste) Although there was nothing to say which line is for Honors members, if your not an Honors member and get in a long line to check in and that line happens to be for Honors members expect some Hilton person to look disgusted and call you out in front of everyone and divert you to another line like a red headed step-child. Basically if you stay at Hilton you better be an Honors member or your just some poor trash that needs to stay clear of the decent upstanding Honors members.

Prós: Convenient location, nice lobby

Contras: Could hear the hallway and other rooms easily

Nice hotel but don't use a wake up call

Prós: Nice room

Contras: Never received a wake up call

Prós: Great rooms and perfect location

Contras: Staff was incredibly rude and continually incompetent
