Very impressed with our stay! Loved the eco friendly emphasis. The breakfast buffet was wonderful with a selection of pancakes, eggs, biscuits, gravy and cold items, also organic coffee. Loved the afternoon free happy hour with munchies (could make a meal on it) with free wine and beer, even Shiner beer was free. Beds very comfortable and loved the suite... More

Beautiful landscaping! The suites have a comfy king bed, living room, kitchen (with a full size refridgerator). The complimentary breakfast was awesome (fresh fruit, sauteed vegetables, eggs-free range, coffee -fair trade, groats, and MUCH more). They use non-toxic cleaning products in the suites, have potted plants, and gorgeous watercolor pictures of the Hill Country. Inside the suite I didn't hear... More

Last-minute reservation got us a beautiful King Suite for $60 on Priceline. Looks more like a long-term stay facility, but could NOT have been more comfortable. Villa-type rooms with a full kitchen, living room area, and bedroom/bathroom area. Clean, nicely decorated, beautifully landscaped, and incredibly quiet. They offer happy hour in their meeting room from 5 to 7 pm with... More

We got this hotel room from Priceline for $30 on 1/28/12. As soon as I saw this hotel I'd never heard about before, i came straight to TripAdvisor to find out more about it and was horrified to read all the mixed reviews. Not being able to cancel since we got it on Priceline, I convinced myself that it would... More

Very comfortable and secure suites hotel. Very clean, breakfast is great and a great happy hour. We stay there only when visiting our son at the University of Texas. We like that it is a green hotel and the staff is very helpful and it has always been very welcoming when we visited. We use to look for the best... More

I was in Austin on business for seven weeks and I did not want to stay in a hotel. I read the previous reviews and I expected much less but I would stay again. The grounds are over grown and the location is in area that has seen better days but you can see progress. There are a few luxury... More

As we drove down the street to the hotel I was immediately taken back by the area. The hotel is not in the best of neighborhoods. My boyfriend made jokes about it being next to a strip club and we even posed for pictures under the sign for 'Sugars'. However as drove up the drive to the hotel entrance I... More

I stayed here because it was a local hotel and the group I was with got us a large discount here, but it really is not all that it claims. It is also not really worth the price even at a discount. I could have stayed in a better hotel for a competitive price. Three main problems: not super safe,... More

Rooms were very clean, however the pool, tv & guest laundry were not working during our stay. Therefore we a little disappointed since we were expecting to go swimming. More

Habitat Suites is in a strange location, but I think it adds to the appeal if you are interested in a get-away – it is in an out of the way (but not difficult to locate) place across the street from the defunct Highlands Mall. The grounds, including the pool area are well maintained and charming. The staff is very... More
