We stayed for 2 nights while in Austin, this hotel was one of the best parts of our trip! When arriving we were walked up to our room and given a tour of the amenities which was awesome and thoughtful. The upstairs patios were so cute, with some books and games. And the bed was fantastic, such a good night sleep. Overall we had a really nice time away in this special hotel that doesn’t feel like a chain hotel, but a welcoming destination.

A hidden gem! We couldn't have asked for anything more! Jen and Vicki were so attentive and courteous and took the time to chat when we would see them as we were heading in/out for the day. Centrally located to so many attractions. From restaurants to museums all within 10 miles. The parking on-site was limited to a few spots, but we were aware of this beforehand. Only once did we have to park off-site, but it was a well lit lot and parking was validated. The small courtyard was beautiful with hanging lights which gave a wonderful ambiance. The gate was secure and needed a keypad to enter. We took full advantage of the outside seating, especially since it was 40 degrees when we left home in Chicago. We relaxed and enjoyed a specialty coffee in the open lounge area which they have on each floor. They have books, games and flavored sparkling water. Our room was immaculate and we loved how it was decorated. Oh my gosh was the bed comfortable! We sunk into the soft sheets with the down pillows and comforter (made it really hard to want to get up, lol) The bathroom was large and the shower had a rain shower head and lots of hot water. The cleaning staff did an amazing job and they were so nice and friendly. We have no doubt we'll be coming back to Austin and know exactly where we'll be staying! Thank you Vicki! Hope to see you and your staff again soon!

When staying in a hotel, I believe the atmosphere truly makes or breaks the experience. In this particular instance, I felt like every corner was filled with a palpable sense of texture and warmth that was truly remarkable. It's not uncommon to encounter this sterile, generic feeling in most hotel establishments, but the little boutique hotel I stayed at was simply wonderful. I'm often hesitant to write reviews for places I'm truly fond of, partly because I know it will inevitably attract a larger crowd – people who want a piece of the action, so to speak. However, alas, I couldn't keep this fantastic find to myself – it's too good! Just a word of caution regarding parking – they have only four spots for 15 rooms, so you'll definitely want to plan accordingly.

We are so glad we chose The Frances Modern Inn for our vacation in Austin. This truly is a wonderful find. Vicky is a brilliant host. Each room is thoughtfully designed with all the comforts you need for a relaxing stay - the most comfortable bed & pillows, fabulous shower & wonderful bathroom amenities . The complimentary coffee machines and chilled flavoured sparkling waters on each communal floor is a wonderful bonus! I couldn’t recommend this place highly enough for your stay in Austin.

The hotel itself is outstanding. Check-in was easy. The room was gorgeous, clean and easy to access. The small touches were great such as a robe and other in room amenities. The bed was so comfortable and the comforter was amazing, I slept like a baby. My only complaint is the parking, but I don’t think there’s anything the hotel can do about it as they are limited. It seems like it’s just all of Austin that has an issue with parking.

The room was clean and very nicely decorated. I prefer an actual reception desk with a live person to greet me rather than a text with a code to open the door. It was convenient but not warm. The property and surrounding area is a bit gritty. If you like graffiti and food trucks, this neighborhood is for you. There are fun restaurants in walking distance.
