Breakfast is available, even if you’re sleeping in after a late night.

Nightlife Options

What People Say

Guests love the spacious suites and friendly service, with many praising the location as “perfect for walking to everything downtown.” The warm cookie at check-in is a small touch that gets big love, and travelers often mention how convenient the hotel is for both sightseeing and nightlife.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel is a bit older than some trendy new builds, and while the decor is clean, it may not wow modern design buffs. Parking is available but on the pricier side—so rideshare might be the better call if you're here for a night out.

The Bottom Line

If you're headed to Austin for a concert and want comfort, space, and walkable access to the city's best venues and nightlife, DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Austin Downtown Capitol hits all the right notes.
