The ABSOLUTE best!
We just had our wedding at the South Congress Hotel. It was the perfect backdrop for our weekend. The staff is amazing and everyone was struck by how beautiful the atmosphere was. The food was unbelievable and our guest couldn’t stop talking about it. Most of our guests stayed at the hotel and did not even leave the area. We hosted all our events here across the weekend making it easing for our guests. Would do it all over again in a heartbeat- Love Love Love South Congress and their team!
Perfect Modern Wedding Venue
Located in the heart of Austin, TX, South Congress Hotel was the perfect location for our wedding! It was so nice having the ceremony and reception in the same place and guests absolutely RAVED about the food from Cafe No Se. I wouldn’t change a single thing about our experience
great venue, iffy communication
My wedding turned out beautifully. I really didn't need to add much to make the space beautiful. However, getting my questions answered was somewhat difficult. Just took a while to get clarity.
South Congress is THE perfect location
Due to COVID & the fact that my fiancé and I were separated between borders (Canada & USA) we didn't have the engagement/wedding we originally had planned. It came down to plan C which was to elope in Austin with a few family and friends. I found South Congress Hotel and was completely blown away with the coordinators help and knew within one email this was where we were going to elope. Not only was the planning process smooth (did I mention we planned this in one month?!) but the day of the wedding was more and everything I could have imagined. The decor was beautiful, the venue was aesthetic and the food was SO good. On top of it all, staying at the hotel was a highlight not only for us but for our guests too! I'd highly recommend South Congress Hotel as a wedding venue!
