Hotel services

Facilities include a restaurant, a 24-hour front desk and room service, along with free WiFi throughout the property. Carpenters Hall restaurant can host large parties indoors or on the patio. Special rates for stays and exclusive invites to neighborhood parties are available.

“The Carpenter Hotel, reimagined from a union hall, has a distinct sense of place near Zilker Park, appealing to those wanting an Austin experience with a sense of history. The focus on local Texas cuisine and pet-friendly environment are welcome, and its communal spaces are designed to encourage a social atmosphere. In my opinion, The Carpenter strikes a balance between a relaxing retreat and a lively venue.”
