HILTON GARDEN INN AUSTIN
$9 Million Renovation Completed in 2007

Hilton Garden Inn Austin, exterior view at sunrise

Super location, close to everything,
but IH-35 noise may be a problem.

Hilton Garden Inn Austin Downtown :: $$ - $$$
500 N. IH-35
Austin, TX 78701
(512) 480-8181; (877) 782-9444; www.hilton.com

Valet parking is $20 per day here. The location is great accept for the noise from IH-35. I suggest you request a room away from the freeway. Noise is my biggest concern about this version of Hilton hotels.

Two hundred fifty-four modern, clean and comfortable rooms. A decidedly and intentional business atmosphere. Lots of suits.

Business center, complimentary high speed Internet access, fitness center, aerobic room, whirlpool.

Hilton Garden Inn Austin, two queen bed room

Garden Inn Austin with two queen beds.

Enjoy high definition TV in every room. While relaxing on your Garden Sleep System bed. Refrigerator, microwave and coffeemaker make the rooms homey.

The one thing I hate rating is service. Poor service can mean one hotel employee having one bad day. You have to consider many factors when you rate service. Not just the smile at the front desk, or how fast morning coffee room service is delivered.

These are certainly important considerations, but pale in comparison to solving real business travel problems. For this I give the entire Hilton line a big thumbs up. They're like a good neighbor, you really don't notice the staff until you need them. Then they're on it like stink on road kill.

Service makes Hilton Garden Inn Austin a good choice for business especially if you can locate a discount rate.

And don't forget, avoid the rooms facing the freeway!
