The Carpenter is a lovely place -- lots of concrete, mattresses low to the ground, hipster vibe with lots of pleasant dogs and coffee. The location is good although I prefer the sister hotel, The San Jose, on South Congress for locale. Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Austin and John and the three baristas at the wonderful coffee shop.

This hotel had 5 star service. The staff was on top of every request within moments. We dealt most with Joseph at the front desk. Very friendly Brooklyn guy who made sure everything was good.
The style of the hotel is a bit off the wall and fairly typical of Austin: a fusion collision of industrial, Bauhaus, and dorm room, but all appears to be very carefully thought out.
I would definitely recommend this place.

This was the best place to stay for ACL. It was a short walk, and had everything we needed close by.

Love this hotel the only suggestion is that there is no USB plug-in in the room. Other than that, we love this hotel and we stay here all the time.

The carpenter was a lovely experience as it’s a very unique Concept in a fun city. The Room comes with earplugs as the hotel accommodations are pretty much converted dormitories, but they are styled well and very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.

The hotel was great! I discovered it on Instagram last year and had been waiting for the perfect excuse to stay there. The property and rooms are beautiful. All but ONE staff member was phenomenal.
See, I arrived at 9:00 AM and inquired about an early check-in (something their site specifies to do). I explained that I had a change of plans and would have to return to the airport at 2 pm, so I just needed the room to take a few calls. I stated I would obv. pay for the night in full, either way.
The lady at the front desk seemed annoyed with me. WELL, CHECK-IN IS AT 4:00PM, she stated. She then told me she would need to charge me a fee (as a deterrent, apparently). I told her that was fine and even suggested paying to upgrade my room if it helped. "Well, I have your number, so I will let you know if anything is ready", she said. I never heard from her.
However, I witnessed her checking in at least two other guests just fine. I returned to the desk a short while later when I noticed she stepped away, thinking to myself (this is my chance!). Another agent was able to check me right then. He was polite and genuinely excited about my stay.
I did not catch the lady's name, but she worked the morning of 8/20/24. Everyone is entitled to a bad day; I get it. But as the agent, she was my first interaction at the property, setting the tone for my stay. I'm friendly, polite, and soft-spoken. I did not deserve her attitude.

This hotel has such a cool vibe. This is our second time here while in Austin and it won’t be the last. Cassandra at the front desk made check in a breeze and Lauren the bar manager is amazing!

Great boutique hotel with mid-century modern retro feel. Nice outdoor spaces, restaurant & coffee shop. Conveniently located near some great restaurants & fun shops with an "old" Austin feel.

Loved the Carpenter Hotel, and I would definitely stay again! It’s clean, comfortable, funky, and quiet. My only constructive feedback would be to offer some way for early risers to have coffee in their room. The only option I was given was a pour over kit, which was $30 for 2 cups of coffee- no cream, no sugar. It’s not a deal breaker by any means, but it’s a bummer. Despite that, I adored the free glass of sparkling wine, the fun robes to lounge in, the beautiful pool, and the fantastic location.
