Hotel Recommendations in downtown Austin
Hi there,
I'm planning to visit Austin in late September. Any recommendations in terms of accommodation ($100-150/night) in downtown area, SoCo or 6th street, will be highly appreciated.
Cheers

Hyatt PLACE Austin Downtown on 3rd St.
Great location, free breakfast. Rooms are large and new.
If money were no object, I would stay at the Driskell.
I hope you intend on visiting the LBJ Library. It is fantastic!!!!!

For your budget I would recommend Austin Motel. It's in SoCo so great location.

The Hyatt Place Austin Downtown Hotel is 2 - 3 times your budget, so I don't know why it was even recommended to you.
I can't imagine you'll find anything within your budget in the downtown/SoCo area other than the Austin Motel. Their rates run from $95 - $207 per night.

Longhorn...I thought you were confusing Hyatt Place with Hyatt Regency, but thankfully before writing that I double checked room rates at Hyatt Place! $269 (random date of Sept 10) for a Hyatt Place is absolutely absurd!!! If they are charging that, what is the Hyatt Regency and their "new" hotel, the Driskill?! That is a lot of money for a Hyatt Place....a lot more than I'd pay!

What nights of the week are you staying? Are there any special events going on at that time? I am asking because last December (I know...not September) I got the downtown Omni Hotel on Priceline for $72 on a Sunday night--even I was surprised--definitely one of the best deals I have ever gotten on PL.
That said, a non-PL fairly good price was had about 18 months ago at the Best Western just off I-35 south of downtown--free parking, close-ish to South Congress, clean, comfy beds, nice towels--I would stay there again in a second.
