The Carpenter definitely has a cool feel. Not like your standard Hyatt/Mariott where you can predict everything about the property. I love when it feels like an artist created a hotel and that's what it feels like here.
I will say that a few things in design that just missed like the bathroom faucet is too low/close to the sink so washing your hands is a squeeze. Also the shampoo/conditioner in the shower is mounted in such a way that you cannot fully press down to get an ample amount (of course this may have been done on purpose so people don't abuse it, but still).
But overall a great hotel with great staff and restaurant right downstairs.

This hotel has unique architecture and modern design. We arrived on a holiday so some amenities were not available. I wish there had been space in the mini fridge for some personal items, and it was frustrating that you can't fill a water bottle from the sink. Other than those small items I thought the hotel worked well for our stay.

Check in was good. I didn’t like that was given a handicap accessible room. The fixed shower head did not work. We had to use the hand held one. The location is great. Took me about 10 minutes to walk to the trail. It’s a good spot if traveling with pets. The grounds and room were clean. I like the decor. The coffee bar is ok. Didn’t get to try the restaurant.

Unique Austin Hotel in the Barton Springs/Zilker Park area. Walkable to restaurants, local bars, sculpture garden, walking trail along Lady Bird Lake, Barton Springs and Zilker Park. Definitely recommend!

My stay at the Carpenter was amazing. The design, comfort and location was enough for me to give it a top rating, however their service raised the bar even higher! Upon arriving very early in the morning from a flight, their manager found a room for early check-in (and nominal feel) for me to get settled in. I can’t thank the team enough for making my stay in Austin a fantastic one!

Loved the location and hotel overall. Great service! Only thing missing was a coffee maker in the room!

The most painless check-in/out process ever! Hotel staff is nothing short of amazing. Definitely looking forward to coming back to Austin and booking my stay here. Cozy vibes all around 10/10

We had a wonderful time at the Carpenter Hotel! Somehow we snagged a really good deal, so it made the decision easy. This hotel is in a great location with great vibes.
I love all the plants and if you are looking for an Austin vibe over a generic one this is the right place.
The staff is all very friendly as well!
The only thing we didn’t love was our brunch at the restaurant. It was pretty expensive and my husband got a basic breakfast plate and he was not impressed with how his eggs etc were cooked. However, we did the next day just go to the coffee shop for breakfast tacos and this was a perfect way to end our trip before hitting the road!
