Guests are spoilt with choice when it comes to fabulous food and drink. The JW Marriott Restaurants offers quite the variety with a casual burger joint, an upscale Italian restaurant, a Texas-inspired eatery, not to mention the Starbucks, pool bar and lounge.
positive:
Close to Everything
While there is plenty to keep visitors busy on site, the hotel offers a convenient downtown location close to shopping, nightlife, entertainment and more. If you're in town for a conference like SXSW, the Austin Convention Center is a mere two blocks away. The Texas State Capitol, the historic Paramount Theatre and live music on Sixth Street are also near.

Negative Reviews
negative:
Have to Pay for Wi-Fi
Nobody wants to pay to stay connected, so there have been a few people disappointed that there is no free Wi-Fi in the rooms--unless you book directly through the hotel website. However, feel free to get online in the lobby where the service is complimentary.
negative:
Party Scene at the Pool
The rooftop pool is quite the hangout and has been known to get a little noisy on occasion. It's the perfect place for people-watching and basking in the sun, despite being a bit busy at times.
negative:
Not Enough Ice Machines
If in the mood for a cold and refreshing drink and are expecting to get ice cubes down the hall, it might not happen since ice machines are not located on every floor. However, a quick ride in the elevator should fix that problem.
