Hanover Republic Square

We’ve had a wonderful experience living at Hanover Republic Square. The building is absolutely stunning, and the views from our apartment on the 28th floor are incredible. The quality of the apartment is outstanding—everything is finished with really high-end materials and thoughtful design. What truly sets Hanover apart is the service. The few times we’ve needed maintenance or assistance, someone came the same day. Everyone we’ve interacted with, from the doorman to the maintenance staff, has been kind, professional, and quick to help. We also want to give a special shoutout to Cassandra, who’s been helping us with our lease since day one. She’s extremely kind, efficient, and understanding, and we’re so thankful for her support. We came to Austin just for a year, and choosing Hanover Republic Square was one of the best decisions we made. We really loved our time here.

We have lived at the Hanover for almost 2 years now and we really love it. We’ve lived at another apartment building here in downtown and have toured numerous others, but the Hanover is one of the best. The floor plan we have is better than any others we’ve seen downtown. The gym and the pool are great as well. The staff is really nice and friendly.

As a leasing agent at Hanover Republic Square, I’m proud to be part of such a well-maintained and thoughtfully designed community. The quality of construction and attention to detail truly set us apart. You simply can’t beat our location—it’s absolutely fantastic! The atmosphere is welcoming, the residents are friendly, and my experience here has been nothing short of five stars. I’m always excited to show prospective residents around because I’m confident they’ll fall in love with everything we have to offer.

We recently had the pleasure of touring several units at the Hanover Republic, and I must say, our experience was fantastic! John Hastings was our guide, and he was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we stepped in, he walked us through various units, providing detailed information about each one. He patiently answered all our questions and addressed any concerns we had, which was especially helpful since we are new to Austin. John went above and beyond by sharing insights about the area, helping us feel more comfortable with the idea of living in the downtown area. His knowledge and friendliness made the experience enjoyable and informative. As for the units themselves, they were absolutely stunning! The building truly lives up to its luxury listing. The appliances and amenities are top-notch, and everything looks fantastic. The community vibe also seems welcoming and vibrant. Overall, we left feeling excited about the prospect of making Hanover Republic our new home. Highly recommend!

I gave it 1 star because, although the building itself is beautiful, they are hemorrhaging money and nickel-and-diming current residents to make up for it. They distract potential tenants with smoke and mirrors while taking advantage of current residents. After just a year, I know over 5 tenants, myself included, who won't be renewing. My move-out fees were around $1,600, and my electricity bill averages $250 a month, reaching up to $450 in an "energy-efficient" building, which they have not addressed to this day. We also have a shared package room where we get to sift through all packages until we undig ours from the sea of packages in a broom sized closet like luxury tenants. I'll leave photos of the fees and unacknowledged electricity communications, which have been ignored for almost a month. Other tenants have also faced similar issues with bogus electricity and HVAC charges with no response (tenants #3707, #2808). I moved from one unit to another, and my initial move-out charges were over $1,600, primarily for carpet stains in a 12x12 area. They claimed all the carpets needed replacement due to this, even ones that did not have damage. I contested these charges since the rest were typical wear and tear, apart from some anchors left behind. I didn't steam the carpets because it was already known in the community that “it was pointless—they would overcharge and screw you over anyways”. After disputing the move-out amount, they reduced it but still charged over $900, which was still unreasonable. They claimed they did me a favor by removing a $500 transfer fee, which I had flagged as incorrect since my move in date was a day before my lease end, which I said I would happily push out. They said, "it didn't work like that." I'll leave photos they took to justify the $1,600 in damages. Regarding the electricity issue, I've faced months of outrageous electricity and HVAC fees, as have other tenants. My electricity averages $250 a month, going up to $450, in a 1,100 sq ft apartment where I live alone. My roommate only stores things here and doesn't stay. Despite reaching out to the main support team three weeks ago, I've received no response, and they said the property would get back to me, which hasn't happened. Tenant #3707 also never received a response regarding their $300+ electric bill from over 5 months ago. I'll leave those photos here too. In summary, the building is gorgeous and new, but I wouldn't recommend this community. Many new luxury apartments in downtown Austin are more transparent and responsive. You shouldn't have to pay for their issues and deal with extra responsibilities to get any resolutions. For all of this trouble just buy or take your business where it will be appreciated. I have heard great things about 6g and have toured there recently. I most likely will be taking my money there once I'm free from this lease.

I have lived here for about a month so far and the experience has been great! John (leasing manager) & Cassandra (property manager) were amazing and helped guide me through the moving in process. Booking a tour, applying, and getting all the paper work squared away was a breeze with their help! Move in was very easy, and especially so for a usual anxious process. The amenities are great and the concierge is helpful and ALWAYS friendly-- which means a lot when its the first face you see when walking back into your home. I would recommend Hanover Republic Square (and I have!) to my friends and anyone looking for a space that is welcoming and right in the middle of everything in Downtown Austin!

The Good - Shoutout Metro at the front desk! Always willing to help and just an overall good guy. The pool, gym, and common areas are generally good and well maintained. The Bad - The management team is very lackluster and ultimately the reason why I chose not to renew. They would often ignore / not respond to your emails and not uncommon to follow up 3 times before getting a response. As others have mentioned, they will also nickel and dime you for your unit, especially at move out (don’t expect your deposit back in full). There was a time when the garage door wasn’t working for 3 months causing anyone to come in and take up the parking stalls. There was also a time when an elevator was down for 2 weeks and we didn’t have water at all for a day. All of these instances management didn’t offer any form of credit or compensation. The final straw was when I emailed the property manager, Brandon, to dispute a fee they charged me to replace a filter and he ignored the email. It’s the little things that kept adding up that made me say no more. Please take this feedback seriously as quite a few tenants I’ve talked to share the same sentiment.

I have just renewed for another year at this wonderful property. Great amenities, great location and Cassandra the Property Manager is amazing! She is always there when you need her, is really responsive and helped me extend the lease with minimal fuss - highly recommend!

I've lived at Hanover Republic Square for almost a year now, and it's truly been a wonderful experience. From the moment I moved in, the leasing office made me feel at home, providing exceptional support and always being responsive to any questions or needs. A special shoutout to Brandon, the property manager, who has been absolutely fantastic. His attention to detail, commitment to maintaining the community, and approachable demeanor make a huge difference in the overall living experience here. The property itself is immaculate, with beautifully maintained amenities that make everyday living feel luxurious. The gym is always clean and equipped with everything you need, the pool area is perfect for relaxing or hosting friends, and the common areas have a welcoming vibe that fosters a sense of community. Beyond the amenities, the location is unbeatable, providing easy access to everything I need--whether it's a quick walk to local shops, enjoying nearby restaurants, or experiencing the vibrant culture of downtown Austin. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality place to live with a management team that truly cares about its residents.

This is a review of the tour of Hanover Republic Square. Brandon from the Hanover leasing team was fantastic! Before the tour, he actually gave me a call to learn more about what I was looking for, which made the entire experience feel super personal. Brandon was friendly, easy to talk to, and really went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and informed.

10/10 place & people!! Cassandra is the sweetest & the absolute best! This is going to be my 2nd year living here & I would not want to live anywhere else in Austin.

BE VERY CAREFUL! Similar to other reviewers across various sites, I almost fell victim to predatory business practices from Hanover Republic Square. The old "bait and switch" came about during the lease signing process. The price that was advertised and shown on the application miraculously switched to a higher rate when the lease was presented. I questioned the change in price and never heard back. Please take your business elsewhere so you don't fall into a scam at, what appears to be a nice place, but really is a deceptive scam.

Despite not having a scheduled appointment, the leasing staff were extremely accommodating. Paul Z provided a thorough tour of the floor plans and amenities. And promptly answered any questions I had. Ultimately, i found what I was looking for and signed. Ive also worked with Brandon and Cassandra. They have always been professional and genuinely good people.

Hanover Republic Square is truly exceptional! The units here are nothing short of amazing; spacious, modern, and thoughtfully designed, providing a blend of luxury and comfort. The breathtaking views from various units are the highlight, offering stunning panoramas that make every moment spent at home truly special. What sets Hanover Republic Square apart is not just the lavish units but also the incredible staff. The team goes above and beyond to ensure residents feel valued and cared for. Their professionalism and friendliness make living here an absolute pleasure. The attention to detail in every aspect of the building, from the stylish interiors to the unparalleled amenities, makes this place more than just an apartment--it's a community where residents feel proud to call home. If you're seeking a premium living experience with an incredible view, outstanding units, and an attentive staff, Hanover Republic Square is the perfect place to be.

I have lived and worked at Hanover Republic Square for over two years now and I absolutely love the location, and the amenities are the best in downtown Austin! If you are looking for a new home in Austin this is the place to be!

Hanover Republic Square looks nice, but once you look under the hood you realize that you are about to lock yourself into a lease with a very uncaring management team. 1. The elevators are consistently broken resulting in wait times of greater than 7 minutes. Now imagine that over 1 week every single day. It takes them roughly 1 week to repair the elevator. 2. Zero Guest Parking. There is absolutely none, not even for half a day. Given the building is downtown this is problematic. 3. Package Theft - Look through the reviews and you will see a consistent theme of package theft. They have cameras in the room, they just won't investigate the problem. 4. Management - Help the guests, be proactive with communicating the elevator issues, solve some of the package theft. 5. Lots of noise from 4th street in units that are facing east. This is not the buildings fault, but the noise is extremely loud that comes from the bars. Not something you want when you are paying $7k+.

The worst staff I've experienced. I really don't need to go into further detail just read all of the other countless reviews. TERRIBLE. "If there was a zero star option for a review" kind of establishment!!

HORRIBLE and RUDE staff. NOT worth the expensive price. You're better off somewhere else. I moved out as soon as I could.

Not a quality building. Rude staff and VERY unhelpful. Myself and other people have had multiple packages stolen. DO NOT RECOMMEND

I liked this place when i first moved in. The concierge is great. The building is nice. But ive been here 5 months and had 10 packages (outgoing and incoming) so far missing. If you value mail, do not move here. Nothing will be done to correct it. I had christmas gifts not show up. Tracking says delivered here so you are not going to win a dispute. so its totally something to do with this building. They wanna charge me 10k to break my lease so im locked in to this bs. Like i said, if you run a business from home or get sent mail from family, you can move here, but just know its a gamble whether you will receive your mail. And if you send out mail, i would totally reccommend walking the 6 blocks with packages to the post office instead of leaving them for pickup here.

I had very high hopes moving into this building, but overall had a very mediocre experience that led me not to renew. It started off with a great deal - 1 month free - but was soured by the high turnover of the staff, which led to a lot of unfriendly encounters down the road. I really liked some of the staff, shoutout to Nicole, Marco the MVP, and Davin. However, the staff turnover is so high that you are dealing with new people every week. This led to a lot of miscommunication. The apartments are nice, with good views, but the build quality is horrible. Noise travels easily. Back to the Bowie

Dec '23: Since joining as Property Manager late summer/ early fall, Crystal Egan has helped make a lot of positive changes. Among other things, she is very understanding, responsive, and communicative with residents -- there is much more proactive communication and recognition of the things that were working against residents previously. She takes concerns seriously and is never dismissive -- ultimately, most residents just want their concerns to be heard, and Crystal takes care of that. She has also started organizing regular resident events in our amenity spaces, which actually make HRS feel more like a community. Cassandra -- who is one of the nicest and most friendly community managers I've encountered in any building -- is still at HRS, and Crystal has brought in new leasing agents and front desk staff that seem to take a vested interest in resident satisfaction. Because of Crystal, Cassandra, and the new team, I am considering renewing my lease and would recommend HRS to anyone looking for an apartment downtown.

After looking at a couple buildings in downtown Austin, we are so happy that we chose Hanover! The building is beautiful and in the perfect location downtown. Cory and the entire office staff are amazing and have been so helpful from the start. Marco and Devin at the front desk are the best and give first class service every single day! Highly recommend this building!

Great place to live! This is by far the best apartment in the Austin area! Staff is great and property is clean. You can safely walk your dog around the property at night without feeling like a windowless van is going to pull up and kidnap me and the next thing I know my organs are being sold on the black market. Go check out this place because you won't be disappointed!!!!

So happy I moved here! Staff is so friendly and the walkability is amazing! I've had so much fun at the resident events and my friends love visiting.

Come see Davin who will always greet you with a warm and welcoming smile! This is such a beautiful and exquisite building that is at the heart of Austin!

Unfortunately, I didn't end up renting here because I found a preferred unit elsewhere, but I did LOVE the property and my tour and I wanted to write a review for the great service. I came in from out of town to tour and Taylor helped me view units and the property. It was really easy because they had a ton of model units so it was quick and convenient. She was excellent - asked and understood what I was looking for, showed me units that fit my needs and budget, and gave a comprehensive tour of the building. She also answered any of my questions I had after and was extremely helpful. I highly recommend even though I didn't end up renting here.

The team at Hanover Republic Square is top notch. Cory, Taylor, Nicole, Cassandra and Jordan are the best of the best. Absolutely best building in Austin.

I just recently moved into Hanover Republic Square and I could not be more thrilled to call it home! Absolutely all of the staff (Taylor, Jordan, Marco, Cassandra, Nicole, Davin...) have been unbelievably friendly, kind, accommodating and helpful throughout my somewhat complicated move in process and it has made all the difference. It also helps that it's a stunningly brand new building! 10/10 recommend for anyone considering living here. You won't regret it.
