We rarely leave public reviews, but felt compelled to share our experience — not out of frustration, but out of deep disappointment.

My partner and I stayed at this Four Seasons Austin last night. We’ve quietly frequented Four Seasons properties across the globe for years. It’s a name we’ve come to associate with discretion, grace, and a certain understated excellence that’s become increasingly rare. Sadly, this location did not uphold that standard.

Upon arrival, we had just picked up a couple of drinks — something simple after a long day. The gentleman at the front desk (a large man on duty that evening) greeted us not with warmth, but with sarcasm. He made mocking remarks about us and was oddly condescending when we asked for two key cards. His tone throughout the check-in felt smug, performative — not something one expects, or should ever have to tolerate, at a property like this.

We’re very private people. We don’t ask for special treatment. We value authenticity, and we treat everyone with kindness — from bellhop to general manager. But respect goes both ways. Being made to feel small or out of place simply because we didn’t arrive in a suit or flaunt our background is both unprofessional and disheartening.

This was, without question, the least gracious Four Seasons experience we’ve encountered. I hope hotel leadership will reflect on the impression being left at the front desk. It only takes one person to erode years of brand integrity.

Stayed here for a week while attending a conference at the convention center. The location couldn’t have been more convenient, just a short walk away. The staff was incredibly friendly, the room was comfortable, and the views of the lake were a great bonus. Would definitely stay again for another event in Austin.

Amazing service. Everyone is super-nice. They basically say yes to any request you make. Can I check in at 9AM – Sure! Check out at 3PM Sure! This hotel is located right next to the bridge with bats, so you get to experience their swarming behavior without much effort. Great pool and reasonable food. Do double check you bill as someone put their tab on my room.

spent a week in Austin and loved the hotel. It is really a good place to relax and recharge after a busy day.
The rooms are spacious and the bed is really comfortable.

This is from a question I answered in Quora this morning. My event was not recent but I have no doubt my experience would be the same. It was lovely to reminisce about this very important day for us. Thank you for making it so perfect.

Question: What are creative alternatives to traditional expensive wedding receptions?

Before I dive into this, I have to say that the wedding planner and staff at Four Seasons, Austin, TX were AMAZING. Granted my husband and I have been married now for 8 years and many of those people have probably moved on but the service from the waitstaff, bartenders, valet and wedding planner, etc. were awesome. Our wedding was perfect!

The front big guy was asking 24 dollars to park while I was going to dropped off very important things at ballroom!

This place is awesome. They have the most luscious backyard I’ve seen for family fun with ping pong tables, bocce, pool!

Their Sunday brunch is an aristocratic feast. Splurge once in a while. It was phenom ⭐️

We were in Austin on a layover from our honeymoon in Costa Rica. We walked in to inquire about a room for the night before our flight out the next morning, and we were promptly escorted off the property. I still have no idea why, really. We may have been dressed down for travel comfort, but we would not have walked through the door in the first place if we didn't plan to stay. Shame on the staff for this behavior - we will never stay at a Four Seasons again.

Cute older property with seamless service, high quality cocktails and great food!

Absolutely love the river view and all the fun games they have out in the lawn!

Julio is by far the BEST server at breakfast

Ice Rodeo and Christmas festivities— how fun! We started at the restaurant and ordered apps and drinks (service was slow, they were busy, but everything was good!) and then went down to the ice skating rink for our reservation. Less kids after 6pm! The ice was not smooth, but honestly it didn’t seem to matter one bit. I felt safe. The ice skates appeared to be brand new. There was complimentary hot cocoa and hot apple cider stations as well as one waiter who would make rounds and take drink orders. Staff was super friendly! Our time was very pleasurable and the atmosphere was FUN and FESTIVE!

Excellent location with attentive staff. The room views were awesome, and the event spaces were even better. They main lobby bar also had innovative drinks with great flavor pairings. I would definitely stay again.

Amazing downtown location. You can either have a city view or a lake view. Restaurant has outdoor seating in both the main restuarant and lobby bar. Less than 10min walk to 6th street. Rooms and bathrooms were spacious. Gym is a little small but you still had everything you could need in there.
