Thompson Austin

Stayed at a few hotels while in Austin for an extended weekend. Did one night at the Thompson to use some points and lived it. Room was really nice, pool area was cool, service was great. A bit of a lesser known gem in town to get a cool boutique experience for great value.

I really like this hotel. I was here two years ago and happily came back to Austin this summer. I wrote a good review then, and I'm happy to say the hotel remains excellent. For a luxury stay in Austin, this is the hotel to stay at. 1) I got a Brazos Suite. This is one of the nicer suites I've been in in the US - decoration is modern yet comfortable and seemed to fit into Texas style. Size is huge and the shower is enormous with two shower heads on either side of the stall. This suite is worth booking over San Jacinto . SJ is ok but Brazos really is excellent if you can afford it. 2) gym is enormous. A whole floor I think with good free weights and machinese. I had a good workout this morning. 3) breakfast is excellent for globalists. One of the better US breakfasts for globalists. There is a dollar amount but they said I could go over it a bit if I was reasonable. I had an egg white omelette and a side of berries. They offer juice but I didn't take. 4) The assistant operations manager remembered me from two years ago and knew my name and all my stay preferences. It's rare in the US I find for staff to remember me or acknowledge me so that was great. I didn't get the chance to go to the pool this time but last visit I enjoyed it. Overall, very happy globalist with this stay. Two thumbs up and can highly recommend

WONDERFUL Staff! Great experience in Austin! Stay at a place like this where the staff and management care about your wellbeing. Thank you, Thompson for making our weekend out a great one!

This is actually two hotels connected as one, plus private residences. With one teeny, tiny pool. You won’t find a place to sit at the pool, but the chairs are so filthy you won’t want to sit on them anyway. The room we stayed in smelled like animal urine, had a filthy rug, and a sock from a previous customer on the floor. I’ve stayed at the Thompson in San Antonio and enjoyed it very much. Will never stay at the Thompson in Austin again.

Great hotel nestled in downtown Austin; a little bit of noise from the street but that was expected as we're very very close to 6th street and stayed on a weeknight; The ladies at the front desk were very helpful and kind. Nice workout room (the simulator was a nice touch for sure) ; we were there for an event and event staff were also kind.
