Top South First Street Hotel Reviews

Hotel Van Zandt

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were nice and helpful. They provided all guest a token to use for coffee or cocktail at the bar. Our stay was overnight so we didn’t get to use all the amenities. I would recommend anyone to come stay."

Hotel Magdalena

Hyatt House Austin/Downtown

8/10 Good

"Staff rooms were clean. Staff was nice."

Austin Motel

10/10 Excellent

"This was our first trip to Austin and we absolutely chose the best place to stay! Austin Motel is full of "keep Austin weird" charm. The pool is the perfect place to relax and enjoy a drink. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The room was clean which is harder to do with an older property. Steps away are plenty of food options and all the downtown fun is a nice walk or quick Uber. If you want a real Austin experience, look past the corporate chains downtown and book yourself a stay at the Austin Motel!"

Hotel San Jose

10/10 Excellent

"Nice rooms, beautiful property, pool side bar"
