Experience Downtown's Main Entertainment District

Just steps away from The Westin Austin Downtown is Austin’s most renowned 6th Street Entertainment District. This array of bars, clubs, music venues, and shops is conveniently located within walking distance of the hotel. During most weekend evenings, holidays, and special events, the nine blocks on East 6th between Lavaca and Interstate 35, are closed to auto traffic, forming a pedestrian zone. This walkable area offers an easy and exciting way to experience the different venues that line the street.

SXSW®

The South by Southwest® Conferences & Festivals offer the unique convergence of original music, independent films, and emerging technologies. Fostering creative and professional growth alike, SXSW® is the premier destination for discovery.

Zilker Botanical Garden

Take a leisurely stroll through wildflowers, butterflies, koi ponds, and even a recreated local dinosaur habitat within Zilker Botanical Garden’s 26 acres, often called “the jewel in the heart of Austin.”

Congress Avenue Bridge Bats

In the spirit of keeping things weird, we should mention that March-November is bat season here in Austin. Watching the largest urban colony of Mexican free-tailed bats in North America emerge from beneath the bridge at dusk is incredible, uniquely Austin, and a must-see event!

Brew Pubs & Beer Gardens

The best bars in Austin are just around the corner. Visit Easy Tiger, Waller Creek Pub House, The Gingerman or Scholz Garten during your stay to enjoy the weather and experience Austin.

For Foodies

Check out Austin restaurants that have made the city a foodie's paradise. From Tex-Mex and barbecue to burgers and dogs, we have you covered.

South Congress

It’s safe to say Austin just wouldn’t be the same without South Congress, and it’s a must-see when in town.  Peppered with shopping, restaurants, bars and events.
