Staking its place in the city’s buzzing central business district, the brand-new Fairmont Austin brings unrivaled luxury to the capital of Texas while simultaneously celebrating the city’s proud mantra of “keep Austin weird.” The 37-story hotel, which features 1,048 guest rooms and suites, became the city’s second-tallest building — and Fairmont’s largest in the United States — when it opened in March 2018.
The first hotel to directly connect to the Austin Convention Center via the Red River Canopy Walk, Fairmont Austin is ideal for business travelers. However, unlike most business-savvy hotels, this property manifests the city’s lust for life by showcasing live music, vivid contemporary art and a fantastic food and beverage program.
The entryway dazzles with a kaleidoscope of greens and blues that play on Austin’s love of nature, bringing the outside in. Plush blue and dark wood seating in the Fulton lobby lounge encourages you to “meet under the old oak tree” — an actual replica of the oldest oak tree in Texas — for expertly crafted cocktails and bar snacks to the tune of live music.
- You certainty won’t go hungry at this Austin hotel with five different restaurants and bars each offering a distinct dining concept. Cocktails and small plates are the focus at lobby lounge Fulton, Garrison does innovative fine dining, Rules & Regs features a fusion-focused menu designed to accompany poolside drinks, Good Things is a refined coffee and pastry shop and Revue replicates an upscale food hall marrying four types of cuisine.
- The hotel boasts nearly 140,000 square feet of event space, fully equipped for meetings, weddings, galas and more. One notable highlight is Palm Park, which accommodates up to 750 guests, has a performance platform for live events and opens out onto the pool-facing Palm Court terrace, which can hold another 500 and includes 85-inch weatherproof televisions with live-streaming capabilities.
- Cool off on the stunning seventh-floor terrace, where you’ll find a seasonally heated pool, a hot tub, elevated floor tiles that keep the ground from getting hot, 13 private cabanas (which can accommodate up to six guests or be connected for larger parties) and one private VIP cabana (for up to 12). Each cabana is outfitted with a 65-inch weatherproof TV, a stocked Yeti cooler, plush towels and exclusive cocktail service.
- The
Fairmont features downtown Austin’s only full-service spa, providing nail salon services in addition to an array of treatments. In lieu of a
traditional relaxation room, the facility has beautiful solariums with
floor-to-ceiling windows, each with a European dry heat sauna, a eucalyptus
steam grotto and saline soaking pools.
- Artwork
by a dozen local artists can be found throughout the luxury hotel, starting
with the lobby’s galloping horses created by sculptor Edd Hayes. Anchoring the
lobby lounge is a real show-shopper: a replica of the oldest oak tree in Texas,
lit with twinkling blue and green lights.
- Fairmont
Austin sits at Cesar Chavez and Red River streets, in the heart of downtown.
The hotel is connected by footbridge to the Austin Convention Center and just a
short walk from Rainey Street, 6th Street and plenty of restaurants, galleries,
bars and live music venues.
- The
design of Revue, the hotel's upscale food court concept, is inspired by old
Austin and executed as a movie set, with details like brick building facades, a
billboard and a live stream of 6th Street projected on one wall. The space ends
with a replica of the city’s historic Palma Plaza House, complete with Greek revival
pillars and a spacious front porch — don’t miss the entrance to the hotel’s
fine-dining concept, Garrison, which is also cleverly tucked left of center.
- The fitness
center features state-of-the-art equipment like Skillmill, the non-motorized treadmill
system that has become a training standard in NBA and NFL gyms, and Technogym bikes for on-demand virtual spinning classes and more.
- Rules
& Regs, the bar and lounge on the seventh-floor pool terrace, maintains a
menu of both local and international cigars, as well as suggested spirit
pairings, best enjoyed against the striking city skyline view.
