Fairmont Austin | Luxury Hotel in Downtown Austin by Manchester Group
Manchester Financial Group is known for building landmark projects across the United States. After creating two successful waterfront convention center hotels in San Diego, Papa Doug Manchester and his son, Douglas W. Manchester, President of Manchester Texas Financial Group, brought the same model to Austin, Texas – the Live Music Capital of the World.
This project was the first major father-and-son collaboration. Douglas shared, “Fairmont Austin will remain the first cornerstone development I have been honored to be a part of with my father, and I look forward to many more success stories in the years ahead.”
To manage the property, the Manchesters partnered with Fairmont Hotels & Resorts, following a strong relationship built at Fairmont Grand Del Mar in San Diego. They recruited Tom Voss, a respected leader in luxury hospitality, as Managing Director to ensure every guest receives world-class service.
