Fairmont Austin
Luxury stay with rooftop pool and easy transport links
About this hotel
The Fairmont Austin offers a refined experience for those visiting Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. While not directly adjacent to the stadium, its proximity to the 700 Cesar Chavez/Red River public transport stop means you can easily connect to the stadium area or explore downtown Austin. The hotel itself is a destination, with multiple bars and restaurants perfect for pre-game meals or post-game celebrations. The rooftop pool and spa provide a relaxing escape, whether you're unwinding after a long journey or decompressing after a tense match. Families will appreciate the kid-friendly amenities, and the pet-friendly policy means no one gets left behind. With parking available, it's also a convenient base for those driving to the game or exploring the wider Austin area.

Our take
Fairmont Austin is a polished 4-star base for a game at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium, and I would choose it for the rooftop pool, the spa and the range of bars and restaurants under one roof. The 700 Cesar Chavez/Red River stop sits a short walk away, which beats hunting for game-day parking, and pets are welcome. It is not a walk to the stadium itself.
- Utilise the 700 Cesar Chavez/Red River public transport stop for easy stadium access, avoiding game-day traffic.
- Book a table at one of the hotel's restaurants for a relaxed pre-game meal, away from the stadium crowds.
- Take advantage of the rooftop pool and spa for a relaxing break before or after a busy match day.
Why we love it

Why guests love itFor a family going to a game at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium, I like the Fairmont Austin for its rooftop pool, which turns a hot Texas afternoon into downtime for the children. Several bars and restaurants mean you can eat without leaving the building, parents get a spa, and the family dog is welcome. The 700 Cesar Chavez/Red River stop is a short walk away for connections across Austin. Guests score it 9.2 over more than 7,000 reviews.
