    relaxing vibe
    artistic decor

    The location was perfect, just a short stroll to parks and the river. Loved the chill vibe by the pool. It was so relaxing. The decor had a cool, artistic touch that really gave the place character. Plus, the unique architecture of the hotel.

    location convenience
    charming aesthetics
    staff confusion
    dirty room
    pool issues

    I stayed at the Carpenter Hotel for 4 nights in a Standard Queen Room. The location was super convenient, easy access to local spots. The hotel design is quirky and charming, really liked the aesthetics throughout. Unfortunately, the service wasn't great. I had a rough check-in as the staff seemed confused and didn't offer any apologies for my late arrival due to a flight delay. My room felt dirty upon arrival, with a bandaid left on the floor. The phone in the room to contact reception didn't work, forcing me to use my personal phone for help multiple times without response. The pool area was disappointing. It looked unkempt and the towels were stained brown. It's a shame because the hotel has potential, but the staff could definitely step up their game.

    playground
    pet-friendly
    communal space
    slow service

    The hotel is a short walk from Zilker Park, where my kids loved the playground and riding the little train. Plus, they welcomed our pet. The communal spaces were fun, especially with a record player for some great music vibes.

    In my wife's opinion, they should improve room service speed.

    The modern aesthetic is on point, and everything felt super homey. The bar area was a nice touch. Didn't hear any noisy dogs, a plus! Only thing was the kids splashing around the pool got kinda loud sometimes.

    open-air hallways
    beautiful balcony
    undisclosed amenity fee

    I really enjoyed my two nights here, especially the gorgeous open-air hallways and the serene vibe of the coffee shop. The pool was fantastic for chilling out, and I loved having my own balcony to soak in the view. Just a heads up, there's a $25 amenity fee that wasn't mentioned upfront, but overall, I had a great time! 😊

    artsy vibe
    good coffee shop
    limited fitness options
    small gift shop
    unconvenient room layout

    The hotel had an artsy vibe, especially chilling by the pool surrounded by lush trees. The restaurant was a standout, with some of the best meals I had while here, and the coffee shop was good. I appreciated the thoughtful amenities, including complimentary passes to a local gym. The lack of on-site fitness facilities was a bit disappointing, and the gift shop, while cute, had limited options.
