Currently, Downtown has 5,700 hotel rooms (and that's if you count the Hyatt Regency and the Embassy Suites, which technically aren't downtown, but they're close enough.)
Number of Rooms/Hotel Name
800 - Hilton Convention Center
448 - Hyatt Regency
413 - Radisson
375 - Omni Hotel
361 - Sheraton at the Capitol
322 - Holiday Inn Town Lake
296 - Hyatt Place
291 - Four Seasons
270 - Marriott Courtyard
262 - Embassy Suites
254 - Hilton Garden Inn
251 - W Austin
209 - Hampton Inn Downtown
203 - Driskill Hotel
189 - Stephen F. Austin Hotel
188 - Doubletree Inn & Suites
179 - Marriott Residence Inn
151 - La Quinta at the Capitol
137 - Hampton Inn University/Capitol
101 - Extended Stay America
----------------------------------------
5,700 - total
Then you have 4 hotels that are under construction or at least have broken ground.
1012 - JW Marriott - opening Feb. 2015
326 - Hotel Van Zandt - opening March 2015
366 - Westin Austin Downtown - opening Spring 2015
298 - Holiday Inn Express/Hotel Indigo - opening (?)
---------------------------------------------------
2,002 - total
So when those 4 hotels are completed, we'll have 7,702 hotel rooms in the downtown area. That's a 35% increase over what we have now.
