    Great Hotel!

    From the front desk personnel Raul, cleanliness and comfort of the room, to the swimming pool, to the drinks at the restaurant was A one perfect! We will definitely be back! The only thing is, don’t eat at the restaurant. Too over priced for mediocre sushi. We know good sushi and this definitely did not hit at all. We actually felt cheated. Hotel stay 💯 %, restaurant 0!

    Good service. Clean. Uniquely Austin.

    The hotel was clean. The staff I would describe as ultramodern. The facilities had a unique vibe I would describe as funky and leaning onto the uniqueness of Austin as a city. The location was great. Within a ten minutes drive from lots of restaurants and stores. The pool was a good size and overall clean. Breakfast was hot and robust and included. The workout room was spacious and well stocked.

    Quiet and comfy

    Building was very clean, floors were mopped often. Even though the Aiden is on the highway access, there was no noise. The rooms were cool, clean and quiet. The pool was refreshing, the jacuzzi was hot and towels were provided. The restaurant with bar attached was convenient.

    Home away from home!

    It has become the ideal location to stay for me over the last two years that I have had to travel to Austin. For the last 25 years I would always stay in the downtown area. These past two years I look forward to my stay, why? Well, the ambience, the decor of the rooms, the cordial welcome teams, the security apparatus, the pool, so many little things. The butterfly renderings on the outside, the huge ducks. My stay at the Aiden is like a home away from home. Please maintain, by the way, BUMBLE BEE, (bad ass)!

    Not Your Standard Best Western

    Would 100% stay here again. Clean, quiet (for a freeway hotel), with a unique atmosphere. Staff were great. Enjoyed using the pool with it's quirky vibe and abundant towels. We even ate at the attached (busy) sushi restaurant twice (it says all-you-can-eat, but you can place individual orders). Substantial breakfast with multiple proteins was included.
