About the Hotel
For when you need to lay back, lean in, or get immersed in the flavors and culture of the live music capital of the world, you know something memorable is about to happen at Thompson Austin. A place for locals and visitors to let loose poolside or at the restaurants and bars, where the luxe, contemporary vibe is signature Thompson — bold but not showy, complex yet confidently relaxed. With dramatic Austin cityscape views on display, the residential feel of the accommodations creates a setting to refresh and get ready for anything. Check into rooms, suites or residences offering moody hues, gorgeous custom furnishings, floor-to-ceiling windows with roller shade window coverings, and elegant plank floors in a warm gray wood grain. The custom décor mixes midcentury modern with late-century luxury, resulting in elegant spaces that will make you take pause before heading back out into the city. This untamed urban playground celebrates serious revelry from the moment you encounter the lobby’s airy atmosphere of light and shadow, offset by the bold geode-inspired architecture.

Reviews for Thompson Austin
Excellent
Had the best time this weekend at Thompson Austin. Our favorite hotel in Austin. Always so amazing, with the best staff, food, drinks, location, etc. Can’t wait until we get to go back again!

Beautiful Hotel
The Thompson is a fantastic hotel, I will definitely come back when I'm in the area. It is centrally located and an easy walk to many events.

Sewage Backup in Room - Avoid
Our overall experience was quite disappointing, with a combination of room issues and some service issues marring our stay. In the early morning we started to notice the smell of sewage back up into our bathroom and attempted to flag this to the front desk. We had to call housekeeping ~3x, and the front desk ~3x before anyone picked up the phone to address the concern. To the hotel’s credit, they promptly sent an “engineer” who simply flushed our toilet and said “this should get better” and left. After arriving back from daily activities before dinner we saw human waste and toilet paper backed up into our toilet, which made the whole room reek. After going down to the front desk in person they were apologetic and helpful. Ultimately we were moved into the same style of room that didn’t pose an immediate health hazard. That said there was no additional effort to make things right. After providing feedback to the hotel (which the hotel proactively asked for) they again said sorry and continued to make no effort to rectify an egregious issue. They simply hoped they could welcome me back soon for a more seamless stay. At a hotel that routinely charges upwards of $500/night (before fees) I was fairly surprised by this, and I don’t think I’ll take them up on their offer. Overall, I can’t say that I’d recommend the hotel to anyone visiting the city.

Property is nice but service can be poor
Rooms and amenities are great. But WiFi is chronically spotty, valet is often overwhelmed, and room service can take 2 hours on a busy night.

Always great!
Thompson Austin never disappoints! This was my second stay here and Nick at the front desk upgraded my room which was spacious and clean. Housekeeping and the amenities were amazing! The staff was always helpful and attentive. The pool was very small, some place to hang out vs doing any swimming. The only improvement I can recommend is to screen guests a bit better, for some reason the guest next to my room was drilling into the wall (yes, the guest, not someone from the hotel). I asked the front desk about it and they immediately resolved but it was just a very odd experience. The Thompson will be my go to for any stay in Austin, well done guys!
