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

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

Fodor's "Set back from the roar of I–35, this handsome five-floor hotel built in 2007 isn't the usual forgettable off-ramp inn." Full review
Gayot "The location of this hotel hits that Goldilocks middle area that can be just what many travelers are looking for. ... Comfortable rooms with space...and enough extras to make you feel pampered."
