Visitors frequently praise the exceptional and attentive service from staff like Josh at Fulton, Valerie, Cindy, Katie, Sammy, and Pablo, who make guests feel welcome and well taken care of. Some guests found parking to be expensive at $55 per night and noted that pool food hours could be extended with more staff dedicated to clearing empty drinks.

About this place Fairmont Austin

Fairmont Austin is a large luxury hotel tower on Red River Street in downtown Austin, with over 1,000 rooms, several restaurants and bars, and a pool deck with views of Lady Bird Lake. It sits next to the Austin Convention Center, so it fills up for conferences and South by Southwest. It is a mainstream gay-friendly hotel, not a gay venue. Rainey Street's bars are a short walk south, and Sixth Street is a few blocks north. The Fourth Street gay bar strip, including Oilcan Harry's, is about 15 minutes on foot west. Google rates it 4.6 from over 7,000 reviews.

Had to come here to visit FedEx location, Anthony helped point me in the right direction and kept my car parked for me while I went inside.

Yesterday my sister held a birthday party for her late son at the cabanas and pool. Hannah and the rest of the team went out of their way for her and really made her time special. The facilities were beautiful and the staff was excellent. I would highly recommend and we are definitely going back!
