Fairmont Hotel opens just in time for SXSW

AUSTIN (KXAN) — Austin’s newest and largest highrise hotel will open its doors to guests on Monday, March 5.
It took construction crews more than three years to build the 37-story Fairmont Hotel at the corner of Cesar Chavez Street and Red River Street. The new hotel with more than 1,000 rooms will be a destination spot with a pool deck on the 7th floor and cabana service.
The hotel is directly connected to the Austin Convention Center by an overhead walkway that runs over Red River
