It’s extremely rare for me to leave a review unless the experience is either exceptional or truly disappointing. I usually avoid boutique hotels altogether and stick to high-end Marriott or Hyatt properties. However, since this was my first visit to Austin, I decided to try something different and booked Colton House for three nights. The initial impression was positive—tasteful décor and a conve...

I really wanted to love it! …but after staying for an entire week, Colton House wasn’t quite what I’d expect from a SLH property to be honest. The staff was lovely, and the hotel is furnished beautifully, but it was the small things that turned me off: the second I got into my (double king suite) room I had to pick up a piece of rogue toilet paper under a table, there was a random cough drop next ...

Hotel itself felt very upscale and nice but the area of town it's located in felt unsafe for me and my family. Blocks down from adult entertainment establishment. Seemed like people without housing loitered the area. Beds were comfortable. Note was they need bigger bedside tables, current ones were very small. Industrial, modern design. Concrete floors on the bedrooms was a bit too rustic for me. ...

We really enjoyed our stay at Colton House in Austin. The rooms were spacious, very clean, and the bed was super comfortable. The cute kitchenette had all the basics we needed. The coffee shop and bar on-site were charming, and we loved the comfortable outdoor seating area. The location was perfect for us—just a quick 10-minute Uber to Univ of Texas, Austin and it worked out great while we were in...

This was our 2nd time to stay. We love it here, the room/ studio concept is "cool" practical and well done. And comfy! It's on the quiet end of Congress (a plus for us old folx) but a quick Uber ride over. Very chill around the hotel space, with a great bar and coffee- with a yummy food truck- New favorite, and Highly recommend! Cheers
