Beautiful rooms and very helpful and polite staff. My son was performing at a state competition and AC Hotel let me leave my car in the parking garage, after checkout, so we would not have to worry about finding new parking and our son could concentrate on his upcoming speech au UT. We will stay at this hotel anytime we go back to Austin.

I was pretty impressed with this property. Maybe I got lucky, but all the staff and front desk workers were all very friendly and outgoing people and they all seemed to be in really a good mood the three nights I stayed there. It was very noticeable. The room was nice and the rooftop bar is very cool to look out over the city. I was definitely impressed with this Hotel.
