Cute enough hotel in a fun area! We really enjoyed walking around the neighborhood and admittedly didn't spend much time at the hotel. The room itself was very clean and the bed was incredibly comfortable.
Why we love it: A hipster hotspot that's as stylish as it is affordable Highlights: - A range of room types for all travelers - Local hangouts like the on-site diner and pool bar - A prime location in one of Austin's coolest neighborhoods The Review:While locals are committed to keeping Austin weird, there's nothing strange about the new East Austin Hotel, a soon-to-be hipster haunt where millennial pink accents and midcentury chic mix with details that embody the city's independent spirit. Here, guests find a variety of accommodations to suit all types of travelers, from cabin rooms with shared bathrooms to poolside suites with private balconies, but all feature Scandi-inspired furnishings and quirky touches like turtle-shaped ottomans, Moroccan pillows, and retro Victrola radios. Vintage pendants hang over the bar at on-site restaurant Sixth & Waller, a self-described ?global diner? that serves international comfort food like family-style latkes, chicken-fried steak, and mango cream pie. Equally stylish is The Upside, a rooftop bar with cocktails inspired by the Caribbean and Central and South America, and Pool Bar, which welcomes both guests and locals with frozen drinks and Instagram-friendly dishes like gochujang queso and jackfruit bánh mi. The hotel also boasts a stylish gift shop with local gifts like handcrafted ceramics and leather goods, but if you'd rather venture out, stop by the concierge desk and grab a curated map that highlights neighborhood hotspots with live music, authentic food, and more.
