Only driven by it, but it looks like a very nice hotel. I saw this recent review on Bidding For Travel. Not sure if it helps you make a decision or not, but thought I'd post it.

Austin/Downtown - Hilton Convention Center 4*
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This hotel is newly opened and easily belongs into the 4* category. It is across the street from the Austin Convention Center in the heart of downtown. There is much construction in the area at this time.

The room was typical Hilton with refrigerator/bar and coffee-maker.

High speed internet service is available at $10.00 a day. There is no self-parking available, although there are a few parking spaces on the surrounding streets.Valet parking is $10.00/day. The very nice spa and workout facility is $10.00/day. There is a coffee bar in the lobby area. We did not make use of the restaurant or lobby bar although both seemed to be very nice.

The personnel were extremely helpful and courteous. Obviously just out of their recent training.

Because we stayed only the one night we did not see much of the hotels other amenities.

This is definitely a 4* property and we would stay there again. It is most convenient to the Convention Center as well as the Capitol area and all the hustle and bustle of the 6th street entertainment district.
