ACL hotels

[Vas Deferens]

Ummm, any recommendations esp. downtown hotels...I've been looking and they're either sold out or very expensive...

I liked the Hampton Inn. Not so close to the park, but well, there's all sorts of transport happening, right? I also don't know their ACL rates but for SX, they were average.

I got a room with two queen beds for 3 nights at the Renaissance Austin at 189/night. Not bad for a festival weekend! And it's only about 7 miles away from Ziegler Park.

That's walkable, right? Is the second bed for me, or are we sharing?

Hahahaha! 7 miles might seem far, but really it isn't! I stayed there in 2004 for ACL and it was AMAZING. It was a $25 cab ride split between 3 other people. Can't beat that! Plus the hotel is across the street from four REALLY awesome places to eat/get drunk. I cant remember the name of it, but one spot had this blackberry cobbler that was just...PHENOMENAL. And then the BBQ...just...ridiculously good!
