The Spotlight on Holiday Inn Austin -Town Lake

Comfortable Convenience by the Lake—Close to Austin’s Music Scene

Modern and welcoming, the Holiday Inn Austin -Town Lake offers a relaxed stay right along the waterfront and just minutes from downtown music hotspots. This 3-star hotel delivers comfort and convenience with an outdoor pool, fitness center, and on-site restaurant and bar, all wrapped in a laid-back Texas vibe.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is key, and this hotel nails it—you're a short ride from Austin’s major venues and nightlife. The 24-hour front desk is perfect for late check-ins after a show, while reliable airport transportation makes travel seamless. The area stays active into the night but isn’t overly noisy, making it a great balance between the buzz of downtown and a good night’s sleep.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself keeps things chill, you’ll find live music venues, bars, and lounges just a quick ride or walk away. Whether you're into dive bars or upscale cocktails, the hotel places you close to the action without putting you in the middle of the chaos.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel’s friendly staff, clean rooms, and convenient location. Many reviews highlight the ease of getting to shows, plus the bonus of scenic lake views. Travelers also appreciate the free WiFi and prompt airport shuttle service.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the decor could use an update and that parking can be a bit tight. But if you’re here for the music, these are minor trade-offs for the unbeatable location and value.

Good location for downtown Austin...

Liked: Comfy beds and really helpful and friendly staff
Disliked: Right next to the highway so one side of the hotel is incredibly noisy and we had to ask to be moved to a different room. Staff were very accommodating and moved us immediately.
