We flew to Austin to celebrate my birthday with my pregnant wife and our friends. We even consulted ChatGPT about the best hotels in the city, and it shortlisted three options. Fairmont won because of the price and availability (we were traveling with several couples). When we arrived, a very pleasant lady at the front desk checked us into our room. Unfortunately, the room smelled strongly of old, dirty carpet. We went back downstairs, and they immediately changed our room without any questions. That was very professional. The next morning — on my actual birthday — we were woken up at 7 a.m. by extremely loud construction noise. It was so loud that we thought it was happening in the room above us. We couldn’t sleep at all. At that moment, it felt like our vacation was ruined, and we were quite upset that no one had warned us about this. However, I really want to give credit to your team. They handled everything with a smile, moved us to another (even better) room, and gave us the personal phone number of a manager. It genuinely felt like they cared. At checkout, there was another small issue — we were charged for wine we never took from the minibar, and our spa credit wasn’t applied. But everything was fixed immediately, no arguments, no need to prove anything. Besides that, the staff left a great impression everywhere: Garrison restaurant — outstanding service and excellent food. The waiter appeared exactly when needed, the complimentary appetizer was perfectly timed, and vodka with caviar is a great addition to the menu. The Spa — very customer-oriented people. They calmly and kindly answered a lot of questions I had. If I had to suggest anything: I’d make the cold plunge a bit cooler and the kettle in the lounge area a bit quieter — but overall the experience was very positive. GOOD THINGS café — extremely friendly and smiling girls working both at the register and in the service area. In the end, all people and all businesses make mistakes. But in my opinion, what truly matters is how they react to those mistakes. And I want to give credit to your system and your people — you handle this exceptionally well. I will definitely recommend you. You are wonderful. Thank you for keeping the true spirit of service alive in the U.S. We are from Miami, and honestly, we really miss this level of care and attention to guests there.

Dear Valued Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and heartfelt review. We are truly honored that you chose Fairmont Austin to celebrate such a meaningful occasion, your birthday, while traveling with your wife and friends. It is especially gratifying to know that, despite a few challenges along the way, our team’s care and responsiveness left a lasting positive impression. While we sincerely regret the initial room concern and the unexpected construction noise that disrupted your morning, we are grateful for your understanding and for allowing our team the opportunity to make things right. Your kind recognition of our colleagues’ professionalism, warmth, and genuine desire to care for you—from the Front Desk to our leadership team—means a great deal to us and will be proudly shared. We are delighted to hear that your experiences at Garrison, the Spa, and Good Things were highlights of your stay. Your detailed observations and thoughtful suggestions are sincerely appreciated, as they help us continue refining and elevating the guest experience. Most of all, thank you for recognizing the spirit of service that our team strives to uphold each day. Knowing that you felt truly cared for and that you would recommend us so highly is the greatest compliment we could receive. We very much look forward to welcoming you back from Miami and creating even more memorable moments for you in the future. Kind regards, Shalton Mahosi Guest Experience

Overall, we had an incredible stay that exceeded our expectations. Checkin process was smooth and Sarah delivered a great, warm welcome. We very much appreciated that she took the time to help us discover Austin, as it was our first time visiting. Colin was also a superstar. We loved every interaction and his genuine commitment to hospitality. His recommendations for dining were spot on and made our visit to Austin, a memorable one. The room was beautifuly appointed but that could be said about the entire hotel. We would like to thank the whole staff and the GM for assembling and empowering the team. The effort definitely is reflected by the service.
