Go for location, kind and friendly staff, and fun location
Everything at this hotel was great. We arrived an hour early, but were still allowed to check in. Our room was tidy, pretty, and had great views. The hotel restaurant, bar and coffeeshop were excellent--everyone was so friendly. It was a quiet and central location, within walking distance to the museums, cafes, amazing food, and 6th street. Overall, a great experience. The only semi-negative thing I would say is that if you were to visit on a football weekend, I can imagine it being a bit rowdy/loud in the hotel, seeing as it's located directly on the UT campus. Go, enjoy!

Great Hotel in a Great Location
A very nice hotel with a fabulous 4-star restaurant, THE CARILLON. It is right on the University of Texas campus and within walking distance of the Blanton Art Museum and the Texas State History Museum. It has a terrific fitness center and an outdoor pool.

Great Place!
This hotel was awesome! The rooms are large and the beds were really comfy. The room was beautiful and had nice amenities.It is the closest hotel to Univ. of Texas campus and that is why we chose it. We knew we would have a lot of walking to do for our campus visit, so wanted to be as close as possible. The staff was super accommodating, letting us check out a little late since we were between tours and we got to leave our car in the parking garage all day even after check out. Those who are familiar with UT know that parking can be a big problem. Did not eat there cause the kids wanted to try the dorm food in the AM, and then we went to Chipotle after our tours (right across the street from campus). With twins entering college there in 2012, I'm sure we will stay there many times in the future.

Short walk from hotel
Right across the street from the UT campus. Plus can go in and out of parking garage for as long as you are there for only one fee. The campus garages charge each time you enter one. Even after check out, you can keep your car parked there until midnight of that day.

Overnight stay
Hi, we came to sign some business papers and see a few sights. This hotel was very close to the business office which was very convenience. The room was clean, but I was disappointed at how small and plain the room was. I've rented more impressive rooms for a third of the price. The lobby was very nice, but I didn't sleep in the lobby.

Totally Cool!
The AT&T Hotel and Conference Center was a very nice hotel. We were on a visit dropping off our youngest child at her dorm at the UT Austin Campus. This is her first time away from home and being able to settle her in and spend the night in a hotel literally across from her dorm was a nice experience.

The only thing I would recommend is to include parking and some form of breakfast with the price. The price per day is steep and to not include parking and breakfast, makes it difficult to repeat a stay at this hotel.
