Recent Omni Austin Hotel Review: "We recently stayed at the Omni in Downtown over New Year's weekend. A friend of mine booked two double-double club rooms separately and checked in at the same time. They were able to accommodate us by getting both rooms next to each other, which was nice to have, considering we were a large group. Upon check-in, we were informed of their after-hours  policy and they wanted the names of all guests for each room, which was no problem. We were informed ahead of time that if all eight of us were hanging out in one room, there could possibly be noise complaints and if we wanted, we could bring our party down to the lobby (alcohol and all). That being said there were a couple of times that we were all together and didn't hear anything from the hotel. In addition, we brought our dog to the hotel and paid our pet fee, with no trouble through the entire process. I had read online that dogs needed to be in a crate any time guests aren't in the room, so I brought his with us. I've seen some reviews complaining about this, but to me it was not a big deal to leave him crated while we were gone. To me, this a small request on their part (in addition to the fee) for the convenience of being able to bring your pet with you. The one real thing I could complain about is the price, but it's fairly understandable considering how close you are to 6th/Capitol/etc. But given the quality of the hotel, I think it was worth it. Speaking of the quality of the hotel, I would really like to say how nice the ENTIRE staff was. I didn't meet a single employee who wasn't extremely kind and helpful. When we would finish walking the dogs, the concierge workers would step out from behind the desk to say hello -- as a dog owner, this says a lot about the kind of people working there. All in all, the rooms were clean, the rooftop pool was awesome (although the hot tub was being refinished at the time - bummer), the staff was great, and being able to walk back to the hotel fairly inebriated was pricele"
