Awesome trip to Austin
Beautiful hotel in the heart of Austin SoCo neighborhood. Very walkable to many great restaurants on South Congress, directly across from the Continental Club. Great patio and pool with wonderful cocktails. Visit Austin often and this was our best stay yet.

A little oasis off the South Congress Road. An area with lots to see and do. The hotel is unlike any other. In a good way. Beautifully designed rooms scattered around leafy gravel paths and secluded pool. Hip and cool, relaxing and quietly upmarket. Def coming back.

We came to Austin for a quick girls weekend and really enjoyed our stay at Hotel San Jose. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The vibe overall was great. We loved the design and decor of the property and our room. The beds were comfy, we liked the linens, and the robes were so cute. We also appreciated the ceiling fan in our room. We enjoyed the location and close proximity to a lot of restaurants and shopping, and it was fairly walkable (we’re all city girls and are up for a decent walk to get places) to different attractions. The street in front of the hotel is pretty busy, but our room was at the back of the property and very quiet. It was pretty hot and humid during our stay, so the pool was a perfect way to cool off in the afternoons. It was also just a great area to lounge outside of your room. The courtyard bar area seemed to be a hangout for both guests and folks not staying at the hotel, so it was lively (in a good way). They also had breakfast tacos on Saturday morning that were delicious. There is a coffee shop nextdoor that is affiliated with the hotel, so that was great for a quick drink/bite in the morning.

Disappointed
At the recommendation of a local friend, I booked Hotel San Jose. It was priced on the high end but I liked the eclectic vibe and interesting rooms. We had concrete floors, a covered patio area we shared with a couple other rooms and it felt very boho chic and residential. The neighborhood was great and walkable. The furnishings were minimalist but functional. They didn't have an in-room coffee maker which made my friend nuts, nor did they have a mirror outside the bathroom. The two big issues for us were as follows: My friend ordered a house bourbon double from a waiter, after being told they didn't have Jim Bean and asking for the house, she was charged $40 dollars which she didn't notice until later, the receipt said the name of a high-end bourbon so it wasn't rectified. The next day when she told the story to the waitress she got some relief and the The big thing though was the air conditioning. We were in Texas in May. The AC setting didn't go below 72 which for an environmentally conscious place is fine, but the reality was that the air coming out at night was NOT cold at all. In the morning it became cold which led me to believe there was a mistaken or intentional setting internally since at no time did the thermostat show anything but 72 degrees. To be fair, I talked to the manager at checkout and she was going to see if anything could be done and I will see what happens.

This is a revamped motel, and not revamped very well. It’s worth about 1/4th to 1/10th of what I paid for it. The pictures on the website are deceptive. The room I stayed in was not any better than what I could find at a Motel 6. Don’t stay here.
