This hotel has a lot going for it: plenty of free garage parking; tidy, comfortable rooms equipped with microwaves & mini fridges; a rooftop pool; friendly staff; easy access to Lady Bird Lake; and, proximity by automobile to Austin highlights such as South Congress Street, Terry Black's Barbecue, Sandy's & more. I have a couple minor complaints, none of which should stop you from staying here. The television in my room hadn't been set up properly, so the channels didn't correspond to reality; the microwave & TV kept tripping the circuit breaker; some of the doors (to service areas, mostly) looked shabby; water pressure in my shower was good but not great. I booked my room mid-flight en route to Austin after learning that my reservation at a South Congress motel had been "cancelled internally" six weeks earlier without notice, so I was nervous about finding a decent replacement. This hotel exceeded expectations. You won't be able to walk to any attractions, other than LBL & a couple of excellent food trucks 50 feet away. But you won't get charged $50/day for parking, either. I will happily book here the next time I visit Austin.

This is a good hotel on a budget. It’s in need of fresh paint and a good power washing. However the location is excellent and view of town lake made the grit bearable. Parking is also free and convenient.

Needs improvement.

The stay was okay. The location is great when it comes to convenience since it is super close to downtown, has some food trucks next to it for food and a small gas station. Its also close to lady bird lake for walks. When it comes to the Hotel it has a lot of room for improvement specially with other hotels with a lower rate and same or bettervconditions. Both elevators for the right wing need maintenance as they shake a lot when going up. The pool is surprisingly super clean but small and short, great for kids. The parking has poor lighting but lots of space. The rooms have good comfortable beds but the lighting isnt the best, i had to open the curtains to get good lighting. The shower has the same issue with very poor lighting and the toilet wont frush at times. The microwave worked great as well the coffee maker but the fridge wasnt working for us. Also the view from the room was blocked by the left wing of the hotel so you can see your neighbors and they can see you but can barely see the lady bird lake. Overall the hotel fulfilled its purposes of having a place to sleep but i would recommend to look for something more updated/nicer for the pretty penny youre paying.

Great location for Austin leisure stay

Holiday Inn - Townlake is a great location for leisure stays right on Lady Bird lake in Austin. It has convenient back door access to Austin's famous boardwalk and river pathways that makes it very attractive for long stays. It also has lake access points for kayak launches, which becomes useful if you're planning sunset tours for bat watching. Daily hot breakfast keeps rotating the menu too, and can become a brunch too as it is open till 11 AM. You'll find lime scooters and rental bikes right outside hotel, even though it's not sold by IHG. A couple food trucks sit next to hotel as well which makes it late night food option. Overall, it's definitely recommended hotel for leisure stays IF you can find good pricing deals, compared to a lot of nearby properties.
