“Staff welcomed me professionally and warmly after a very long journey. The view from my room was very nice, and I appreciated the hotel's focus on sustainability. It would be helpful to have water more readily available. The small cartons were helpful, but I didn't always know where I could pick them up. Enjoyed the location, close to good walking paths, cafes, bars, and restaurants.”

Would’ve also loved if slippers were provided. Otherwise, I loved my first stay at a Fairmont and...”
“Our experience at the Fairmont Austin this weekend was incredible in every way. Our dinner at the Garrison was the best meal I’ve had. The food was absolutely mind-blowingly good—and the service was exceptional. Every person was kind, helpful, and made our experience great! JR — thank you for all you did for us.
