Colton House

Amazing staff. The hotel was clean, and spacious, with a modern touch. I was surprised by how quiet it was, and how accommodating everyone was. The hotel has a nice bar on-site. It was really nice to get to know know the bar staff. Location is also very convenient. Shot drive / walk to restaurants down congress Ave. Give this place a chance if you are looking for a newer, clean, convenient spot with amazing staff.Overall, I would definitely give this place 5 stars. I will be back in the future.

I stayed December 10th and gave them a 250$ security deposit and it is now January 15th and I am just now getting my 250$ back which is insane.I've been waiting for my deposit back for a WHOLE MONTH. Why???Avoid avoid avoid if I could give 0 stars i would.And that's not the only reason.Security guard kept harassing me....This woman came to my car in the parking garage and needed to make sure "I was a hotel guest" and didn't do the same for anyone else. So I showed her my key cards and she gave me a look then walked away??But here's the crazy part...I had been out and I was tired so I go into my room around 3 AM(mind you I was not visibly impaired at all) and then SHE COMES KNOCKING ON MY DOOR AT 4:30 IN THE MORNING to "check on me". I asked her if I had done anything wrong and she said no, so I asked why she insisted on harassing me and she says, "I won't anymore ma'am."I was in shock.I've never been treated this way in my entire life and I have a lingering suspicion that there was an undertone of discrimination that lead to this.For reference, I'm a 31 year old black woman and I was staying in a room alone.I hadn't done anything wrong, and I didn't deserve any of that. I paid for a room just like everyone else did. It made me feel really really sad; I couldn't have been more respectful yet I received exactly the opposite.You guys can do better; no one deserves to be so obviously singled out like that without cause whatsoever.

Three words- chic, trendy, and hip! A beautiful boutique hotel with gorgeous decor throughout and spacious amenities. We stayed here for a weekend concert getaway in Austin. Located on a super busy street- Congress St. And driving up and down Congress, you'll notice lots of street construction. Parking was available for $30/day.Their lobby was gorgeous- spacious large rooms with lots of beautiful lounge chairs and interesting artwork. Complimentary mixed nuts, Red Bird sauce, and cold water were available- self serve. The hotel had a pool with an attached bar/food restaurant-Simona's and a Mexican food truck (Taquicardia) for breakfast and lunch. Our king studio was lovely. A large kitchen to the right with a microwave, toaster, utensils, glasses, and a large fridge. Decor was cute throughout- bathroom had two sinks, large shower, sofa, large tv, small desk, and plenty of storage for luggage etc. Sliding glass door to a barely there balcony lolLovely colorful velvety sofas were near every elevator, with a restroom nearby.The next morning we grabbed a quick breakfast from Taquicardia and ate out on the patio at Simona's .Highly recommend!

Who knew this was here?! I drive by all the time thinking it was just apartments and tucked away in the back is the most darling and charming retreat with a pool plus a speakeasy style coffeehouse and bar called Simona's. If you're not a guest of the hotel you can purchase a day pass for $30 to lounge at the pool. The adjacent deck is set up bistro style with a taco truck in true Austin fashion alongside it. While the lower level boasts a modern vibe with bustling conversation also offering cocktails upstairs was where I found my heaven in their sophisticated library with coffered ceilings and cozy velvet chairs and couches to curl up in with your latte. Covered attached parking garage next to lobby and your ticket is validated up to 4 hours with purchase! Enjoy!

Very trendy, clean and adorable hotel- not in the greatest location of Austin- love the interior artwork- nice bar located near parking garage

We visited Colton House Hotel this past weekend for a small getaway honeymoon. Upon arrival, the doors were opened for us and we were warmly greeted. All staff were extremely kind, and all details were in order according to our reservation. The hotel/accommodations were thoughtfully clean and aromatic. The grounds were well kept and up to date aesthetically. I would definitely recommend this hotel and would even return if in the Austin area again! Very pleased!

First time coming to Austin, we decided to stay at the Colton house! The vibe of this hotel is super cute. All the staff were really nice & friendly. We stayed in a king suite. It had a full kitchen! Included a sink ,Microwave, coffee pot and a full fridge! Walking distance to a lot of good spots! The cons the bed and pillows were pretty terrible that's really all I would have changed! The pillow felt like sleeping on a balloon and not in a good way.

Absolutely gorgeous place tucked in where you would almost pass it up on the street. It's beautiful, quiet with lovely scenery. We went this past weekend to celebrate my husband's birthday and had the best time ever. Would definitely go back and highly recommend!

First off, huge thanks to Josh, one of the managers. He took what could have been a ruined experience and turned it around completely. We stayed at the Colton House Hotel for 1 night recently, on a vacation trip to Austin. I booked the king 1 bedroom but once I got to the room it was obvious that this was an ADA room. While I am happy that they have those accommodations, an ADA room is not standard, and not what I was expecting. I lived in an ADA room for a period in college, and was not trying to revisit those accommodations. Unfortunately the showers just aren't the same, and being a tall person is a bit uncomfortable in an ADA room. Anyway, I was never notified that I was going to be placed in an ADA room. When I went back to the front desk, the gentleman who checked me in informed me that there were no other rooms of that kind available. He was nice, but basically wasn't amazingly helpful in finding an appropriate solution (I totally understand that he may not have had the authorization or knew how to fix this), so I suggested getting an upgraded room since this was a huge inconvenience. I was just really unhappy with the ADA room. Just when it seemed like I wasn't going to get anywhere and would be stuck with that room, Josh stepped in and not only upgraded our room to a two bedroom, but also provided us drink coupons so we could enjoy a beverage at Simonas. Thank you Josh for exceeding customer expectations. They also informed me that they are upgrading their systems soon, so hopefully you will be able to avoid being in a situation like this, where you book a standard room and they place you in an ADA room. As far as the hotel: it's cute. Smells really nice, is very clean, modern, and the common areas where you can relax and enjoy a drink are decorated perfectly. The decor, furniture and art was on point throughout the hotel and in the rooms. The drinks from the bar were really good. I enjoyed Purple Rain the best of all the ones I tried, though the espresso martini was great too! We didn't eat the food but I'd be interested to try next time. It was overall a great stay, thanks again to you Josh!

Everything in this hotel is BEAUTIFUL from the lobby to the rooms...everything has its own charm and it's clear that someone put time and care into adding a personal touch to every area, especially the rooms. The rooms feel more like a home than a typical hotel, blending style with comfort. The gym is great too, with everything you need for a good workout from a normal gym not a "hotel gym" it's definitely a higher-grade (like pretty much everything here)Simonas is the lounge/hangout/event space inside the hotel, and it's definitely worth mentioning. Simona's is a versatile space that's perfect for getting work done during the day and just as enjoyable for a relaxing drink in the evening. LASTLY, don't miss the taco truck right outside the hotel! The charm, Simona's and the taco truck really take this hotel from "just another place to stay" to "I'm staying here every time I come to Austin"
