Still sitting in the room as I write this and definitely feeling like I understand the reviews now. Over all, the staff are great and the small rooms, tiny pool and lack amenities don't really turn one off. After all the view is stunning from the 7th floor. However, we had requested a fridge & never got one, even though... More

This hotel is located in downtown Hot Springs and very close to all the historic downtown entertainment and food. Our stay was great, the rooms were pretty good and the breakfast was included. Everyone in my group was surprised that the price of the room was not a lot more.

We travel to Hot Springs at least once every two months. The Austin Hotel & Spa is wonderfully located downtown Hot Springs. In the past, we have stayed in rennovated rooms. However, this past weekend (May 31 and June 1) we stayed in room 608. Immediately after exiting the elevator, I knew this floor must be lacking the rennovation process.... More

Was in town for dance competition. Had made reservations at the Embassy Suites for 2 night but only needed one. Embassy would not adjust my reservation nor would they give me the same rate as my original reservation so I chose to try The Austin again. My stay last year was not enjoyable so I had some concern about stay... More

Shower curtain was also dirty. At least new pics. were on the wall now and new carpet & bedding and... More

I stayed at this hotel during a business meeting at the convention center. The rooms were clean and very comfortable. They didn't offer a complimentary breakfast, but it was right next to the convention center which was a plus

Only seen the staff upon check in. They want it to appear to be an upscale hotel. It's not. Room was filthy. Carpet, chairs, bathroom floor, trim...... I moved the nightstand forward to look for a wall plug.....mistake! It appears this room hasn't been properly cleaned since the early 60's! Beyond gross! (And I'm not a neat freak.....it's just that... More

Our convention stay was very enjoyable even though the hotel was under repairs from recent storm damage. All the staff we came in contact with were extremely friendly and helpful. Were working their legs off, especially those who helped out in the convention hall! Rooms were very clean and comfortable beds. Great pool, liked how had a outdoor and indoor... More

Overall average experience, aging hotel but overall clean and service was competent. Double beds were on the small side and short, I couldn't imagine a tall person sleeping on them. Easy walking distance to springs, bath houses, all historic and downtown attractions.
