Enjoyed our stay during SXSW. Room was clean and comfy. Pool area is nice. Greeted with margaritas when you check in which is a nice touch. It does get noisy at night with all the bars near the hotel. Most of them had live music during SXSW. It didn’t bother us but is worth noting.

Nice upscale Hotel in the heart of the action. On the downside a bit noisy at night, the hotel apparently recognizes that and in the rooms we stayed in there were white noise machines for sleeping which were a huge help. Staff is well trained and very friendly.

GREAT GREAT GREAT STAY!

I checked in Thursday, got married at a location nearby Friday, and my husband joined the stay the following few days. This hotel was absolutely amazing. I felt so cared for, and celebrated by the team here. From checking in, till leaving. They were absolutely amazing! I would stay again. Hotel Van Zandt has a special place in heart during our special moment. Thank you so much.

A luxury hotel with no breakfast room service

No room service breakfast is a big problem for a luxury hotel. Room service starts at 4pm. Also this is the second time they were an hour late having the room ready and didn’t allow a later check out. I’ll choose a different hotel next time for those reasons.

I really enjoyed my stay at the Hotel Van Zandt. Really solid amenities (sparkling water provided at both check-in and check-out, excellent toiletries, and even a white noise machine in the room which I’ve never seen before). The service was also really positive. In particular I really appreciated the luggage service I received from Presley. He really went above and beyond on a super windy day to help deposit my suitcases into the cab. Overall a very positive experience!

The place was loud due to the bars outside of our room, but we expected it because of the central location. However, the real issue was waking up to a false fire alarm. Multiple alarm sirens and alerts went off, forcing us to climb down the stairs to the back alley at 3:30 AM. It was cold, and we were the only two there at that time. No one notified us or checked on us at all. We ended up losing 4 hours of sleep.

Upscale, modern, downtown

A upscale more modern hotel, looks like it’s had recent renovations. The only thing I would suggest is brightening up the rooms. Each room felt extremely dark and like a man cave. We had a larger suite, beds were comfortable, but pillows were flat and like I said, even with curtains fully opened, it was so dark in our room.
