Home2 Suites by Hilton Austin East Side 5th Street
Suites with kitchens near the East 6th strip
About this hotel
Home2 Suites by Hilton Austin East Side 5th Street pairs a kitchen in every suite with free breakfast, a combination that makes it the strongest self-catering option among the East 5th Street cluster's two hotels. It sits nine minutes on foot from Lazarus Brewing Co., slightly further than its Hampton Inn neighbor but still within the same East 6th-adjacent pocket, and five minutes from 2111 Cesar Chavez/Robert Martinez. The outdoor pool and fitness center round out the practical amenities, and the building is marked pet-friendly, kid-friendly, accessible and smoke-free throughout. With a 9.0 rating across 231 reviews, it edges out the Hampton Inn next door on review score, which makes it my pick of the pair for a longer stay.

Our take
Home2 Suites by Hilton Austin East Side 5th Street is my pick on Austin's East Side for a self-catering stay: every suite has a kitchen, breakfast is free, and there is an outdoor pool and a fitness center. Rooms are pet-friendly, kid-friendly and accessible, and parking is paid. Lazarus Brewing Co. is nine minutes on foot. A 9/10 rating from more than 230 reviews is excellent for the category.
- Stock the kitchen for at least a few meals if staying more than two nights, it's the property's clearest advantage over its Hampton Inn neighbor.
- Budget nine minutes on foot to reach Lazarus Brewing Co., slightly longer than the walk from Hampton Inn next door.
- Use the outdoor pool in the afternoon before the East 6th strip gets busy in the evening.
