Daily Mandatory Charge includes: Tourism Public Improvement District Fee and Texas Recovery Fee. The Hilton Garden Inn Austin University Capitol District is in the heart of downtown Austin, close to the historic Texas Capitol and University of Texas at Austin Campus, home of the Longhorns and the new Moody Center. The hotel is also just a short walk to trendy restaurants, bars, and music venues on Austin's famous Sixth Street.

Guests of the hotel have access to Apex Rooftop - a terrace strung with lights that boasts panoramic views of the University of Texas, Texas Hill Country, and the State Capitol. Each of the hotel's welcoming rooms feature a 55-inch smart TV with premium cable and streaming, a large desk with swivel chair, a mini fridge, microwave, coffee maker, laptop safe, and free WiFi. Many rooms boast impressive city views, and all feature colorful decor that pays homage to Austin's eclectic live music scene, with artwork made up of vintage Austin City Limits Music Festival posters. We look forward to welcoming you soon to the Hilton Garden Inn Austin University Capitol.

    Overall a good experience. From the moment we got there the staff was friendly. The room was clean, everything worked as it should in the room. Great experience from beginning to end. It was so refreshing coming from Hilton Palacio del rio. It was terrible. They have a sewer smell. We had 2 rooms in 2 days. Worst hotel we have ever stayed at. Management doesn’t care about their customers there. So it was nice walking into a a room that doesn’t smell like sewage. Come enjoy yourself here. Worth every penny.

    I have been trying for weeks to get a refund for a system issue. I have called multiple times and am being told that the valet manager is going to process my refund and it would take 3-7 business days. Its been well over a month and still not refunded. I tried to call and keep being immediately put back on hold and transferred, the line eventually hangs up.
