Fairmont Austin
Austin's new skyscraper hot spot
VERIFIED LUXURY
We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience goes beyond how your surroundings look — how your visit makes you feel is what you will remember most.
We started in 1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.
Five-Star
These are outstanding, often iconic properties with virtually flawless service and amazing facilities.
Four-Star
These are exceptional properties, offering high levels of service and quality of facility to match.
Recommended
These are excellent properties with consistently good service and facilities.
Soon To Be Rated

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.
