Friendly atmosphere

Great service and very nice hotel.
Joannie, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Peaceful in the city

Unusual decor reminds one of a spa swim club. Interesting to learn that this was one a place where visiting carpenters stayed, hence the name. We had a private balcony looking into the branches of a large pecan tree. We loved every aspect of our room. And nearby Barton Springs Rd. has lots to offer!

8/10 Very good

Cute, clean, no coffee

Super cute, staff is very nice. My only issue is that it’s impossible to get a free cup of coffee which is something I’ve never, ever experienced at a hotel. Instead you have to pay at the coffeeshop in the lobby. It’s over $5 for an Americano. I live in NYC and even I think that’s completely ridiculous.

I love the vibe of the Carpenter Hotel. I stay here everytime I am in Austin. It is small and unique, not standard style hotel. They have a great coffee shop that attracts the community and a great restaurant.
