Room and stay was good. Only qualm is the parking system. The application doesn't say how much parking will cost until after the transaction ($10/night), and adds hidden fees that I only knew about because of my credit statement (ends up being about $15/night). Would have loved more transparency about the cost.
Very friendly, helpful, and accommodating staff! Location is perfect for those who like a peaceful walk away from the noisey downtown area. Rooms have everything you need to make your own meals. Definitely coming back!
Element Hotel - The Domain (Austin) I stopped by here for a quick meeting with customers. While I was meeting with my clients I was able to look around and admire how clean and modern the lobby was. Staff were friendly and helpful. Front entrance is a bit small offering Valet. Nearby places include large IBM & PayPal office buildings. Q2 Stadium is only a traffic light away, along with Starbucks and other options.
I had a great experience at Element Austin at The Domain, and I especially want to recognize Jane for her outstanding service. I ran into some technical issues on my end with my accommodations, and she stepped in immediately to help. She was incredibly professional, efficient, and kind throughout the entire process. Jane handled everything quickly and made what could have been a stressful situation feel smooth and easy. Truly appreciate her attentiveness and willingness to go above and beyond. Thank you for the excellent customer service!
Great hotel, rooms had everything you could possibly need with a great view. The breakfast was the best part with someone making french toast on the spot for you with all fresh ingredients.
Great place to stay in North Austin. It is walkable to The Domain which has premium shopping outlets. Almost a new hotel by Mariott. The ambience, breakfast, rooms, everything is amazing. The parking access is a pain in the butt as we have to go to the lobby and around to get to it. The hotel also is long, which means that the access to some rooms is very long.
Room cleaning everyday, clean location , clean building, pool , washer room, and gym. Staff are friendly Rooms were very comfortable. Coffee set up in hotel lobby for 24/7 usage for guests, water containers / multiple bottle refillers located in hotel . Nice open space for guests to work on laptops if they wanted . Only downside is having to pay and park in separate parking garage .
We really enjoyed our 2 night stay here. The staffs are extremely helpful and nice and we really appreciated the acknowledgement of the Marriott Platinum member at checkin with automatic application of the levels benefits. The entire facility was clean and comfortable and the hotel still feel like new. Good breakfast selections and 24hrs coffee etc... All the staffs did a great job making our stay very-very enjoyable and we will definitely stay here again.
