Concierge "Long favored by cost-conscious artists and musicians, it's charming and hip without feeling pretentious."
Rough Guide "Basic rooms in a trendy old motel in the funky South Congress district. A favourite with visiting musicians, it’s across the street from the venerable Continental Club."
Gayot "Yes, this is a motel, but it has a fun, vibrant sense of style and is a far cry from typical, cheap chain digs."
BlackBook "This isn’t a motel masquerading as a Turkish steam bath. It’s just got a mad sense of humor to go with its mad South Congress Ave. location."
Fodor's "What used to be a fading 1938 motor court is now a beloved, quintessentially-Austin motel." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The Austin Motel's retro sign is a local icon." Full review
Not For Tourists "Funky hotel with theme rooms. Nice staff, cool location."
Afar Magazine " The 41 guest rooms are a retro mash-up of red vinyl tufted beds, silk-screened music posters, and kitschy lip-shaped rotary phones." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler Readers' Choice Award

Frommer's "A convenient (but not quiet) location in the heart of SoCo and great rates make this place very popular." Full review

Star Service "Attached like a comfortable broken-in saddle to the Long Horn's alma mater, UTA, this top-notch option may be aimed at academics, but its pseudo-luxurious lilt and low rates are just as..." Full review

"It's not only conferees who appreciate the "first-rate" facilities at this "immaculate" University of Texas campus business hotel, where the 40,000 sq. ft. of meeting space is "great"."
Fodor's "Business travelers, conference attendees, and a host of visiting relatives (in town for UT graduations) frequent this relatively new addition to the University of Texas campus." Full review
Travel + Leisure "This is a business hotel, but even if you aren’t here on business, you'll be comfortable and enjoy being steps away from the heart of UT." Full review
Lonely Planet "This swanky hotel on the UT campus is perfect for alums who want to relive their college days but in much higher style." Full review
