I recently completed a 2 night stay at the Habitat Suites. As other reviewers have said, the property is showing a bit of wear and tear and the decor is a bit outdated. That said, the suites are very spacious and have everything you need, including a kitchen equipped with all of the basics you need to fix yourself something... More

We ran an event at Habitat Suites April of 2013. I knew going in that the hotel was a little outdated so I was not surprised by the actual rooms. But I was surprised to find that the beds were very comfortable, the hotel staff was one of the friendliest I've encountered and we run events all over the country,... More

Clean, inexpensive, and accessible. This is a deal. It is 10 minutes from downtown Austin. The suites are roomy and fully equipped. There is a wonderful hot breakfast and a happy hour (with cheese, veggies, etc) included in the price. All this for $89. Prices vary with weekends. The only suggestion would be if they updated their lights and tvs... More

Yes, it's a little older. Yes, it's not in the center of hip Austin. Yes, the TVs are small; agreed. But it is clean, thoughtfully provisioned and the breakfast is outstanding. Friendly, helpful staff were everywhere. The pool area is charming. It is quiet. Also, I have sensitivities that will cause eczema when my skin is pummeled with chemicals, especially... More

This could be one of the best places to stay at in austin, as it is not too far from the downtown area. The main problem is that it is not maintained properly : a) Too much dirt and dry leaves around the property and inside the pool area. b) The phone system is too old and in our case... More

I was looking for a place to stay that would allow me to get to the Capitol at 8:00 a.m. without fighting traffic. All of the downtown places are expensive and have exorbitant parking fees. I noticed Habitat and was suspicious because of the price. The area doesn't look great, a mostly boarded up shopping mall, vacant office buildings, and... More

We stayed at the Habitat in April while attending a hot rod show. The place is beautiful, and advertises itself as a 'green' hotel. It has a very nice complimentary breakfast buffet and also free happy hour in the evenings, serving wine and beer. It's not as pricey as the Embassy Suites, but is very comparible. The outside patio/pool area... More

If this had been our first stay at Habitat Suites we would probably NOT be back. The first room they put us in was supposed to have wireless and despite the woman at the desk claiming all the routers were up and even "resetting" the wireless, none of our wireless devices could get any signal. Mind you, not a weak... More

Just stayed one night at this hotel. The price was reasonable considering it included a suite, a happy hour and a buffet breakfast with organic and fair trade coffee. Like other reviewers have mentioned, this is not a state of the art glitzy hotel. But, it is well maintained, clean and Eco- conscientious which is a very nice change. Yes... More

I don't know why it is so hard to find this place, but again, I was coming in at night and it took three of us to figure out the directions. Part of it is that the instructions on the website could be improved. But once here, it makes up for any difficulty. The man at the counter was the... More
