Frommer's "Most of its clientele are business travelers, and the InterContinental offers lots of amenities aimed at this market." Full review
Fodor's "The location is ideal: one block from 6th Street, four blocks from the Capitol, and next door to the historic Paramount Theater." Full review
Lonely Planet "A restrained formality greets you in the marble-clad lobby of this 1924 beaux arts building. The sort of quiet elegance that attracts privacy-seeking celebs."
OysterUpscale
"The InterContinental Stephen F. Austin occupies a historic building in a great location in the heart of downtown Austin." Full review
Star Service "This hotel weaves together a wonderful blend of old and new...its newly added boutique charm bridges the gap between traditionalists and a younger, hipper crowd." Full review
Gayot "Today, it is popular with business travelers and downtown revelers --- not to mention lobbyists petitioning their causes in the nearby State Capitol complex."
BlackBook "Kill the cooler hours on the only terrace overlooking Congress Ave. Bike messengers glide in and out of downtown traffic down below."

Fodor's "One of the best-managed hotels in the city, the all-suites Doubletree has a staff that anticipates your every need." Full review
Star Service "It bests the Embassy Suites Austin Downtown with larger, more attractive suites, a better pool and a location that is perfect for those in search of something convenient to the city center." Full review
Gayot "This hotel is tucked in the heart of downtown. It is just two blocks from the State Capitol and four blocks from the University of Texas."
BlackBook "A pool is on the premises to work off the chocolate chip cookie proffered at check-in."
Lonely Planet "Just northwest of the capitol and within walking distance of UT, the all-suites Doubletree feels remarkably corporate, but it does offer a little extra space." Full review
OysterUpper-middle-range
"The hotel's 188 suites are spacious with tasteful, if generic, contemporary decor, and come with separate living and sleeping areas, and kitchenettes with full-size fridges and dishwashers. " Full review
Travel + Leisure "You could walk to UT from the Doubletree, but the hotel also has an on-demand shuttle service to nearby spots that will come in handy when you don’t want to hoof it." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The Doubletree Suites, an all-suite hotel a stone's throw from the Texas Capitol building, is well suited for long stays and families."
