Omni Austin Downtown Hotel

Omni Austin Hotel in the center of downtown shares a soaring glass atrium with an adjacent office building. The bright, spacious lobby has intimate seating arrangements and a sunny restaurant and bar. The hotel’s proximity to the State Capitol, the convention center, and the 6th Street entertainment district draws both business and leisure travelers. The rooftop patio has a heated outdoor splash pool, a spa tub, and panoramic city views from 20 stories up. Spa services available at the pool level include Swedish massage, deep-tissue massage, reflexology, and the Relaxation Body Treatment. Ancho’s restaurant, located in the atrium, features buffet lunches, steak dinners, and a pianist most evenings. Every evening from March to early November, locals and visitors gather to watch the spectacular exodus of 1.5 million Mexican free-tail bats from their roosts under the Congress Avenue Bridge. The bridge spans Town Lake and is eight blocks from the hotel. Spectators watch from the bridge, the grassy area below, or from a Town Lake cruise boat.
