Overview
The Aloft Austin at The Domain puts a traveler in the heart of Austin, Texas’ premier entertainment area. Offering a seemingly endless array of shopping and dining, this is a popular spot with leisure travelers. However, as the hotel is also less than a mile from the J.J. Pickle Research Campus and less than 10 miles from Dell headquarters, the University of Texas at Austin and the Capitol Building, it is a great choice for savvy business travelers, too. The amazing Austin music scene has a strong presence in this area, as well, and outdoor and natural attractions like Lake Travis and Lady Bird Lake are within 15 miles.
The amenities found in the hotel are also a big part of its appeal. After all, there is re:charge(SM) gym, a 24-hour fitness center with free fitness classes.

There are multiple dining options that include re:fuel by Aloft(SM), the chain’s signature gourmet self-service provisions shop with make your own cappuccinos, tasty snacks, letting guests stock up on goodies. There is also a convenience shop in the hotel.
Visitors also have access to a car rental desk, free parking, bar and lounge, billiards area, and pet-friendly policies. There are some business and meeting services along with laundry and dry cleaning options, an ATM in the lobby and free shuttles.
The rooms are a good match to the rest of the hotel and feature appealing design and décor, premium linens, a work desk, mini-fridge, beverage center, bottled water, and high-end electronics along with Wi-Fi. All of this makes the Aloft Austin at The Domain a great option for leisure or business travelers eager to enjoy the best of the city.

Summary of reviews
Guests say
Guests praised the hotel's location and cleanliness, highlighting the friendly staff and comfortable beds. However, many expressed dissatisfaction with the small room sizes, noise levels from nearby bars, and limited amenities, especially for the price paid. Overall, it seems to be a good choice for short stays, but may not meet expectations for longer visits.AI-generated from customer reviews

Pros (+) I liked the location, it was close to lots of shopping and restaurants.
Cons (-) Not many amenities. The WiFi kicked off after 24hrs, it’s can be annoying when you’re staying more than one night. I expected a few more ‘complementary’ perks for the price and location.
Pros (+) Everything was what I expected from this business. The room was beyond clean and everything was amazing. I will definitely be a returning customer.
Pros (+) The location, the lovely smell, the room layout.
Cons (-) The scenic view of the parking garage, the cheap carpet with the sticky stain, the mold in the shower.
Pros (+) Clean, modern hotel in a newly developed area full of shops and restaurants. The staff was excellent. The hotel has a pool and a gym.
Cons (-) The bathroom door was extremely flimsy and unable to lock-- no bathroom privacy. The Domain is a brand new area that has a feel of a transplanted European city. It has a pretty luxurious yet eerie vibe.
Pros (+) Location and free parking
Cons (-) Too stark for my taste. It was a birthday gift for my wife.
