Staying at the Proper for a couple of nights while in town. We know Austin well having lived here for about 7 years and has heard good things about the hotel. Had good meals at Peacock before so decided to check it out. After a night here I think there are better options (Thompson, Fairmont, JW, W, etc). The room is nicely decorated, but very small. No desk or chair which was inconvenient as I had to do some work. Marriott status didn’t help as I got a room which literally looks at a parking garage wall roughly 30 feet away. The service so far has been fine, very responsive via text, but I found check in to be a bit cold in their welcome. The main bar is packed and loud, which I get for Austin. The small bar just off the front desk is really nice and the servers in there were incredible. Looked to go to the pool, and it’s pretty green and cloudy…so debating if that’s where to spend the day. I’m confident it will be a good vibe. The restaurant up there is currently closed though, so that limits some options. Gym is awesome - huge and has a ton of equipment. Overall - just think the room is subpar for the money. Think some of the other premier properties in town are better value and present more value if you have loyalty program status.

Such a vibe. From coffee and breakfast each morning to afternoons by the pool and workouts in the gym, every part of the experience felt effortless. Peacock was the highlight—the restaurant and bar exceeded even our high expectations. The food was exceptional, the atmosphere was fantastic, and the service tied it all together. We absolutely loved our stay.

Wow - all I can say is wow! I travel extensively for work and have stayed in numerous luxury hotels and Austin Proper beats every single one. They thought of everything to make my stay incredible! Amazing property, fantastic amenities, and a truly delightful team whose passion for the property is clear to every guest. The bed is comfortable, the rooms are clean, and the food and beverage service is top notch! I hope to make it back to Austin again soon so I can stay here again. Keep it up Austin Proper - you are doing it right!!
