Nice property and convenient location. Wouldn’t give it four stars due to some oddities. Other than a closet, there is no storage space. No drawers or shelves, even on bed stand. Room is very small. One peg in the shower to hang a towel, but no towel racks. Also, at night the hotel lobby and bar turns into a singles place. Crowded and so loud you can’t hear yourself and surely can’t sit and have a quiet drink. Also, I tried to reserve directly with the property and it was cheaper on Expedia. Reached out to the property and they wouldn’t match the Expedia price.

We had a great time at The Proper Hotel, amazing food and service as always. Some of the names that stand out from the staff who were super kind and helpful were Megan, Hanna, Kamar, Abraham and Kendra. We will be back for sure!

Everything from start to finish at Proper Austin was excellent. It far exceeded all expectations. Cleanliness is a huge item for me. If I find even 1 hair or scuff marks on the walls, I will rate less. The Proper was perfect! Everything from check in, the personal touches upon checkin, the details while there, until checkout, everything was great! Location is the best, atmosphere was fun, you can have a quiet stay if that is what you prefer, as we do. You can text to ahead your car ready at valet, the same goes for texting when you want your room cleaned. They bring fresh big glass bottles of water daily, the in room personal items like shampoo/conditioner are incredible and sometimes I want in my own home. Loved the decor and design of the room and entire hotel. I would definitely recommend The Proper Austin. It is not cheap, but you g er what you pay for & I would pay this anytime to stay somewhere this clean and personal. Great job Proper staff!
