Fodor's "This elegant 14-story hotel towers near the tangled intersection of I–35 and US 290. It earns high marks for value, but feels removed from the city though it's only about 3 mi from downtown." Full review

For a larger room without breaking the bank, request a corner king.

"This upper-middle-range chain is popular with business travelers and families, and is located in Southpark, a 5-minute drive south of downtown." Full review
Star Service "Though the Omni is geared toward business travelers, this place does lure tourists comfortable with the south-side location and a lack of nearby entertainment. " Full review
Gayot "When guests enter through the back side of this hotel, the traffic noise of busy I-35 is quickly drowned out by the relaxing sound of a fountain."

Travel + Leisure "The hotel's South Austin location gives a head start on a day trip to San Antonio." Full review

Gayot "Likely one of the best kept secrets in Austin lodging, this 96-room property offers the spaciousness of apartment living with the convenience of a hotel."
Not For Tourists "Not the best location, but it is the only 100% green hotel in A-town."
Time Out "Habitat Suites is one of Austin's most eco-friendly hotels, offering hypoallergenic suites surrounded by organic fruit and herb gardens (Bonus: the hotel uses solar power! )." Full review

Guests can choose from one of four types of suites ranging in size, but all are equipped with 100-percent natural hygiene products—plus live potted plants to encourage clean indoor air quality.
Lonely Planet "Locally owned and eco-friendly, this quiet place is tucked away just north of downtown, away from the hustle and bustle." Full review
