Parking

Downtown Austin is the walkable core of the city, home to 6th Street, Rainey Street, the Convention Center, and Lady Bird Lake. It's where most visitors want to be — and where hotels charge the most for the privilege. Budget options exist but book up fast, especially during events.

Pros

✓ Walk to all major nightlife, restaurants, and attractions✓ No need for a car — save on parking and Uber surge✓ Best access to SXSW and convention events

Cons

⚠ Highest hotel prices in Austin, especially during events⚠ Parking runs $25-35/night if you do drive⚠ Street noise can be brutal on weekend nights near 6th Street

🛡️ Safety: Generally safe. 6th Street gets rowdy after midnight on weekends — expect a heavy police presence. Avoid the east end of 6th past I-35 late at night. Rainey Street is well-lit and feels safer.

We're still researching hotels in Downtown. More options coming soon.
