Location, courtyard, overall vibe
Room way too simple for what you pay. Too much noise room to room. House keeping carts left to block entrance to our room during the day

Hotel San José feels like a tiny village hidden inside Austin, filled with laughter, warm light, and people who actually seem happy to be there. The lush plants, intimate paths, and small but inviting pool create a relaxed atmosphere that never feels forced or overdesigned. It’s the perfect blend of old-school Austin charm and easygoing comfort, and I can’t wait to return.
Hotel San José has a wonderful vibe, but the prices have drifted into territory that feels out of reach for what used to be a simple, charming stay. It is lovely enough that I still go occasionally, but I would visit far more often if the rates were even remotely reasonable. Like much of modern life, it now seems priced for a world where everyone needs millions just to enjoy what used to be middle-class comfort.

The location is unbeatable, just steps from South Congress. The robes were a fun bonus, and the on-site bar was great. We loved having access to the pool, and the 12 pm checkout was perfect. We soaked up every minute of our staycation.
Even on a Sunday in November, the courtyard patio and pool were pretty busy. Our main concern was that the room felt like it needed some attention. The windows were dirty, which didn’t help an already dark space, and the older toilet caused issues with normal use. Overall, it didn’t feel like the elevated experience you’d expect at this price point. It seems like the hotel is leaning heavily on its great location, and the rooms could benefit from updated finishes. We ended up enjoying our stay at Hotel Carpenter more than San Jose.

friendly personnel
Location ( restaurants, and walkable to capitol 45 minutes and riverside ), secluded green garden,
Small pool to cool down after a ‘walking day’
Nice nut and cheese snacks
Room 26 was rather bright at night due to floodlights of a parkinglot (?) at the back of our room.
Room was basic for the price charged but quit, no noise from traffic

The hotel is cool and very Austin. Great location, nice room, and delicious breakfast. It had a great vibe and friendly staff.
The AC in our room was too loud; it really disturbed our sleep. Prices at the bar were too high, and $30 for overnight parking was also too much.

It is a stunningly beautiful place! The pool is gorgeous and the spaces invited relaxation and socializing
Our room close to the street was a little noisy. Another room we had set back on the property was a silent little zen retreat.

Fantastic location. Very cool vibe around the hotel. Neat bar/pool area. Great merch. Amazing minibar selection. Friendly staff. Overall an epic spot and I'd definitely stay again! The photos don't quite do it justice.
Payment system was slightly convoluted and annoying. Was meant to be pay on arrival for each of the guests (we had 4 rooms) yet a hold was placed on my card for 2 rooms I wasn't staying in. Slightly annoying and feel like this could be simplified by requiring payment from each room at check in.

Grounds are beautiful but pool is tiny and no chaise lounges or really a place to sit or layout. Just cement benches.
Super soft full bed, uncomfortable. Noisy. Could hear conversations in both adjacent rooms and stompers above. As well as housekeeping happening from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. outside. No amenities.

Location
Our room - a concrete block. Much better rooms were there but not allocated to us.
5.0 / 10.0
The location couldnt have been better. Walking distance to so many shops and restaurants. I liked the door separating the sleeping area from the bathroom. There were numerous outlets for charging devices. Despite the convenience and our Austin son’s strong encouragement that we stay at the San Jose, next time we’ll stay elsewhere with amenities commonly found in other hotels.
For the price we paid, I expected a microwave and coffee maker. The room was very small and the bathroom didnt have a counter surrounding the lavatory to put things—-cosmetics, etc., and that was inconvenient. We could’ve parked on the street for no charge but didnt know that and paid $30/day to park in your lot which elevated the already pricey accommodations.

Good spot locally - only issue I had was that there was no ability to make a coffee or a tea in the room and no were provided on the premises. Would of been nice to have a coffee tray available until 10:00 - 11:00
I traveled for business and in between calls if I wanted a coffee I would have to go line up next door (a 15-20 min effort)

The property and room were fantastic
the bed was a bit springy and slid on the frame a bunch, plus finding outlets close to the table or one side of the bed was tough.

Beautifully-designed. Very convenient onsite self-parking. Jo's Coffee a real asset.
Room 20 sits right on noisy South Congress so you will not get any sleep.

ample parking, good location
overpriced for the design/comfort
noisy
would expect some amenities at this price
common areas in concrete and gravel are cool/quaint, but not worth this price!
