Thompson Austin

Thompson Austin brings a bold and sophisticated style to the heart of the city, offering a refined urban retreat for discerning groups. The hotel features 212 spacious rooms and 17 residential-style suites, all characterized by their striking, contemporary design and luxurious finishes. A unique advantage for group bookings is that the Thompson shares its building with the tommie Austin hotel, creating a dual-brand property that provides planners with a wider range of accommodation styles and price points within a single, cohesive location. The property boasts over 10,000 square feet of dynamic event space, including a grand ballroom and multiple breakout rooms, all equipped with the latest technology and designed to inspire creativity and connection.

The social and recreational life of the hotel is centered on its expansive fourth-floor amenity deck. This vibrant outdoor space features a large resort-style swimming pool surrounded by private cabanas, a well-appointed fitness center, and the sprawling indoor/outdoor restaurant and bar, Wax Myrtle’s. This area serves as a lively hub where group members can relax, dine, and socialize while enjoying views of the cityscape. Downstairs, the hotel’s signature restaurant, The Diner Bar, offers another excellent option for group meals in a chic setting.

The hotel’s placement at 5th and Brazos puts guests directly in the middle of downtown Austin’s most energetic districts. It is just a block away from the world-famous 6th Street Entertainment District and a short walk from the Red River Cultural District, known for its concentration of live music venues. This prime location allows groups to effortlessly immerse themselves in the authentic music, culinary, and nightlife scenes that define Austin.
