Great location in the heart of downtown for a short weekend this place is right where you want to stay
Nice hotel but too expensive. All restaurants are expensive. There is no microwave in the room. You pay a lot for parking. There was no free WiFi for guests. This is not ok or normal. We should not have to sign up for a program for free WiFi.
It was our first time at the Omni and everything was fantastic, particularly the staff. It's a great location from which to see all of Austin.
Second time to stay at this hotel, great location to everything there is to do in Austin! We had slight issues with our A/C not cooling the room completely and couldn't get the wifi to work in the room, but we enjoyed our stay overall!
Nice business hotel. Make sure you get a room facing outside (and not windows on the interior courtyard).
Front Desk staff is so rude, it immediately ruins your stay! I would not recommend this place at all!
From the outside, the hotel looks like your typical downtown, swanky hotel. Upon my arrival I was greeted by rude and unaccommodating staff. In fact, during my entire stay at this hotel, the daytime concierge and the bar tender at the lobby bar were literally the only nice staff at the hotel. Possibly the most atrocious of them was the manager on the night shift. He was basically a dictator and wanted to make sure not a single person was having a good time in or around "his facility." The hotel itself is built as sort of an atrium, but the hotel shares space with dozens of other businesses as well. The hotel was difficult to navigate, the rooms were of the same quality as a Radison or a Marriott, but considerably more expensive. There was nothing at all that stood out about this hotel besides the location it was in. One of the features that made our decision was what was advertised as a rooftop pool. Once I got up there, I noticed there was a small lap pool and some chairs thrown around. No music, no bar, no staff. Quite the opposite of what you'd expect a downtown rooftop bar to be, and exactly what you'd expect to see in the backyard of a La Quinta. Since there are a ton of other similar or better quality hotels in downtown Austin, I would highly recommend staying elsewhere. This place is not worth the money. I travel regularly for work and stay at hotels a great deal. This hotel has no value outside of the location.
Stayed at Omni for a company training (buses picked up and dropped off from there). Would've been nice to know I was getting an ADA room before I got into it. Shower was tricky to get positioned correctly, and there wasn't much space in the bathroom for personal belongings. If I were to need such a room, I'm not sure if it would function well - grab bars were used as towel racks, safe was on the top shelf in closet, not much room to turn around in a wheel chair, and the room was all the way at the end of the hallway. Yet the peep hole was low for a wheelchair? Made me wonder if this room was truly designed for someone who would need it, or just a nod to be compliant.
Friendly and helpful concierge and staff. Clean. Sign up to be in their Select Club for free to get free internet, otherwise you have to pay daily.
Had the private guest special treatment! Staff super friendly. Good view and walking to downtown.
Beautiful room - An easy walk to 6th street, the capital and stadium and many restaurants. We stayed in an executive suite and it was perfect!
Beautiful hotel, very accommodating, walking distance to all kinds of great restaurants and bars
Concierge desk was rude. Bathroom was dirty. They allowed me to check out at 1 PM. Parking is expensive even if you're a guest. It's around $30 per night. Swimming pool on the rooftop is tiny. And the room was small, for the price you pay I was expecting more.
Hotel staff was very welcoming on our arrival. Pool is very small. The room was clean and comfortable.
