This place is out of business at least from 9th October 2020. I’m there now looking at a To Let sign :)
All I can say is wow! With three kids, I have hosted a ton of birthday parties and this was by far the best! We were expecting close to 60 kids, and Char had it all under control. From setting up early, bringing in extra staff and being the pros they are, everything went smoothly... we even got a cute group photo! Char is a true professional and absolutely lovely to work with! And most of all, my child has a BLAST! As did all of the kids and adults... so many kid inflatable party venues are cramped and overpriced, this one is neither. We had the place to ourselves, and it was a fun party for all! Thank you Char and Hoppn House! Highly Recommend!
We had a private party here for our 4 year old. It was worth every penny. Staff helped us set up the party and basically played nanny throughout the entire party, cleaning, welcoming, serving. It was fantastic and we could not be happier with the experience.
Nana is the best birthday party hostess! Sure, there are bigger places--with more inflatables, with newer party rooms--but none of them have NANA! She really knows how to juggle a gaggle of 5 year olds into a delightful 2 hour party experience. If you have a kiddo and are looking for a place to host their next B-Day party, this is it. Nana gives great advice and handles the day-of like the seasoned pro she is. Great party experience!!
A great place to spend the afternoon. The admittance charge was very reasonable; I paid $27 for three kids, and youre free to come and go all day. The staff was very kind and understanding of the hurdles parents face with multiple small kids in tow.
We had our daughters 1st birthday party here! We were stressed trying to find a place as we are not from here and had family and friends coming from out of town! We called and the owner just made it so easier and affordable! My daughter and the other children had a great time and got a lot for our money! The staff was great and the owner made us feel like family!
We come here all the time with our daughter. I love that this place is small and manageable (so you dont feel like you loose track of your little kiddo). Its a great price. We have had several birthday parties here but mostly go when we need to get out of the house but the weather isnt great. My only advice to them is to just spruce up the place a little. The tables could use a new coat of paint or replacing and a few pieces of the furniture. But it by no means keeps us from coming and enjoying ourselves! The owner and staff are also super friendly and let you bring in outside food and drink as well which is really nice. Its perfect if you need to bring your laptop and get a few pieces of work done while your older more independent kid gets some playtime.
We attended a birthday party. It was nice - the staff was pretty low key but did a great job gathering the kids up for a photo and off to the party room for cake and singing. Party room was spacious with plenty of counter space for presents and snacks, a couple of large tables and even a refrigerator.The gym itself is one of the smaller ones around - only about 4 inflatables plus one just for the toddlers, but this was just fine. The place we usually go is spacious and has more options but this also attracts preteens careening through the place at dangerous speeds so the smaller area seemed to keep the crazy down, here. The kids really liked the sponge pit, too.
Weve had my sons birthday party here the last 2 years. Char is amazing at hosting a party and has a way with kids. Weve had a blast. I highly recommend!
Staff really needs to work on keeping all guests safe. My four year old was hit in the head as an older boy jumped down on him from the roof of the bouncy structure. Staff didnt even notice because she was too busy chatting with her friend.That said my children really enjoyed it especially the climbing rope wall with foam pit underneath.
Fun place for the kids. Great staff. We visit often. My sons 6 the birthday party was a success. He loved every second!
We have been here a few times for different sorts of visits, and have had consistently good experiences. I sometimes bring my kiddos here to play since the bounce house closer to my home has more limited weekend hours. On that note, I do wish that the weekend hours for this location were expanded; especially on Sunday - though I know everyone needs a break now and again.I like that this place is consistently clean and relatively quiet, compared to other indoor play places we have visited. I do not like the fact that there is no water fountain or even regular faucet available to get water, so you might feel pressured to try and fill your water cup from the bathroom faucet (not ideal!) or purchase bottled water (also not ideal!). On the plus side, you are able to bring in snacks and drinks, which is helpful if youre like me and want the kids to be able to stay and play for a couple hours.
Hosted a birthday party here and it was a great experience. Char was extremely helpful and all the staff was friendly. I would highly recommend it for parties or just a fun visit!
Great place for Kids 5 and under
First bouncy place I have seen that os BYOB for parties. I liked that the staff didnt micromanage everyone during the party and the kids had a good time.
Its a good place to let the kids run free. Its priced decently 17$ for my 2 and 5 year old and they can play as long as they want
Amazing place for kids! My daughter had a blast! We are definitely returning here soon.
BEST birthday party ever! Everyone had a great time (including adults) and the staff was amazingly helpful. I will recommend Hoppin House to as many people as possible.
Staff was great! Good place to let kids burn off steam and play...super plus is I got to bounce too!! Yay!
Highly recommend throwing a party at Hoppin’ House! Rate is very reasonable, they let you bring your own food, and it makes for a super laid back and fun party! The staff was also really helpful with setting up and breaking down. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
Our daughter loves the place and her birthday party there was great! Couldnt be more helpful in organizing and setting up the party. Looking forward to many more return trips.
They did the best to make us feel good!!!
GREAT PLACE FOR KIDS!!!! The staff is amazing!!!! Prices are very reasonable! CLEAN FACILITY!!!! Great place to have a birthday party!!!
Char made our birthday experience fantastic. We had a private party and rented the entire facility. She helped set up and she cleaned up. The parents got to relax and eat because there was only one door in and one door out --- so we didnt have to worry about kids taking off. The kids got to run and play. It could not have been easier. I had multiple parents come up to say it was a go to place for birthdays.
The kids had fun for a few hours and were able to release a ton of energy.
My family and I have been here dozens of times over the years, hosted several birthday parties here. Kids always have a great time, theres Wi-Fi for the adults if needed and the staff are always a big help for parties.
This place is really dirty. The carpet was scary to step on. The girl behind the counter had a Buc-ees t shirt and was texting the whole time.
This place is awesome! The staff is always friendly, The place is kept clean and kids under 2 jump for free. Its our go to, before nap, place.
Great experience with this place and with it’s wonderful owner Charr. Charr was amazing from the start and provided me with any help i needed. My son loved his birthday party here at Hoppin House.
We have been to several birthday parties here. I like that you can do private parties for a great price. The lady does a little bday gatherin/activity right before cake. Fun time for the kids. Doesnt break the bank for the parents. Good birthday party option in south austin.
Such a fun place!! My 2.5 year old loved it. She has been asking to go back every day!Great for a Rainey day.
If you can get over it being kind of dirty. The prices are really great and its another great place in Austin thats been around for a long time thats great to go.
Great place for young kids - Id say 7 and under, maybe 6 and under. Also THERE IS NO WATER FOUNTAIN. So be prepared with gallons and gallons of water for your sweaty toddlers, or be prepared to spend money on bottled water there.
This place is awesome! I am so very happy to have discovered this fun, outgoing and friendly place to bring my child. I really would recommend having birthday partys here rather than Chuckee Cheeses
Perfect size for kids party
Staff is great with kids. They really put in a positive effort.
My 2 year old son absolutely loves Hoppin House! Its awesome for those really hot (or really cold) days when he needs to run and jump around and get some energy out. We had his birthday party here and it was a wonderful experience. The staff is great as well.
Kid’s always have a blast here. It would be lovely if there was more comfortable seating for the parents, but the kids always enjoy the jumping.
The staff are always so friendly. Love that its just the right size for my small group and they cant get lost in a crowd.
Expensive and old styled. However kids still have fun
I usually stop by for a Coke and to talk to Shar. But you know its a great spot to get the kiddos tired and ready for nap time. Then enjoy yourself a nice quiet afternoon
Weve done field trips here for years. Love this place!
We have had 2 parties there and attended a few more. We have always loved how clean and well kept the facilities are. The staff is very professional.
I love this place! I will recommend anyone with kids, personal experience in this place you feel safe and the people work here is awesome, I met a nice lady her name is Nana, she is so wonderful, happy, friendly ...
The private party option is perfect for a larger party. The staff was super helpful and I loved the separate room for cake and singing. Highly recommend!
Very friendly..accommodating..relaxed atmosphere...totally understanding of families needs...not pretendious...welcoming..
Its to small not worth it for the money
This place is great, and it may be the best hopping-house experience for the money in Austin. Take it from us... My 3-yr-old daughter broke her arm at Hoppin House (totally my daughters fault--I saw the whole thing), and the staff there responded with as much grace and kindness and professionalism as you could expect anywhere.
Visited twice, 18 months apart. Place smells worse and is dirtier than before. Three staff clustered at the front desk. For having opened at 3pm on a Sunday, I was expecting at least some cleaning. There is a raised ball pit that smells of BO and cannot be viewed from the front desk.
Awesome place to host a birthday party. Great fun for kids! Excellent staff. Love it!
No water fountain and you have to pay for water uhh what? It was super hot inside and all of the workers were texting on their phones. Paid $17 for a 6 year old and 1 year old to play for 2 hours, seemed a bit over priced since they only have 5 bounce houses and the baby area was a MESS. Definitely not coming back.
I really liked that we were able to have the whole place for a private party. My grandsons party was a great success. I most certainly recommend Hoppin House for any childs party.
This place was very fun for our kids. Our son and daughter plaid there for hours. They claim to be very clean, but the table we sat at was stick and discusting. It felt like it had not been wiped off for days. We ended up wiping it off ourselves. Then the next day my son wakes up with pink eye. The bacterial crying kind of pink eye. Wich means the place is not sanitary!! I gave it 3 stars because the kids had fun, but they really should clean up!!
Smaller than the others but much more quiet and less crazy than the others. Good if you want to let the kids play but dont Wana headache from the screamingUpdate: I dont think this place has been cleaned since the last time I was here...about a yr ago...its dirty and smells...toys are filthy!For $10 a kid 3 and up Id expect a little more cleanliness. Restrooms are clean though!
Been coming here for years, its always clean, the owner is great, and they have a foam pit!
We had reserved for a private birthday party 6-8pm on sunday was the only hours that were available. When arriving at hoppin house there were still people leaving after 6pm. When reserved hoppin house assured us that the place would be disinfected etc. The tables were sticky and none of the jumpy castles were disinfected. We were not informed about there would be no air conditioning. The party was rushed hot and dirty. The bathrooms were not even sanitary. I do not recommend this place for birthday parties or play at all.
Fun place for kids 6+ and older
Great place for a birthday party. A lot of options. Kids will have a loot of fun. BYOB for the parents!!!
Nice friendly place :)
I bring my kids here for them to burn off as much energy as possible. The kids love it. I find it inhospitable that you have to buy water. No water fountain or cups of water available.
My son on the Autism Spectrum absolutely loves this place, specially the foam pit! Staff is always friendly. Will host our next birthday party here for sure!
My kids are 4 and 2, they had a blast and got super worn out. So did I.
Guy at the front desk was very nice and helpful. Place was clean and its not too large that youll lose your kids. Foam pit is lots of fun
Small place for the price! $29.00 for three kids 5 and 8yrs. Very dirty areas like the foam pit! Socks are everywhere and little pieces of red foam get everywhere: in hair, cloths even got in my 5yr olds eye! NO water fountain so bring water bottles. NOone watching door area and not even a barricade. Sorry Locomotion closed nice and big and couldnt hear the air blowers and kids screaming as much. Good location only positive but will not be going back!
Great place for kids very friendly sta ff.
Attended a birthday party here with my two daughters. The place is relatively small with one area for parties. My daughters had a great time and even though I thought it might have been underwhelming with only a hand full of inflatables it seemed to be more than enough for the kids. They have a block pit (similar to ball pit but with blocks instead of balls) that my kids and the party kids couldnt get enough of. They did not want to leave when the party was over and the place was closing.We were picking foam from the degrading blocks out of my daughters hair well into the night afterwards.
This place has the potential to be the best indoor kids recreation area in Austi but the staff do not monitor the play area and when it is crowded children do not play appropriately on the structures. My kids left frustrated instead of happy to have been there.
Great place for kids 11 and younger to burn off excess energy!
Lots of fun for a 3-year old. Clean facility and super friendly staff.
Great price, nice indoor facility and great service!
Great place for a birthday party. Staff is very accommodating. They have a foam pit as well!
One of the best hoppin houses in South Austin. I love how Clean they are and it is just the right size to sit down and relax while the kiddo runs around. they have a snack stand and the price are resonable. my kiddo love the foam pit and everything about the place.
Best place to have a kids birthday party!! They make it so easy!!
This place is nice and cozy very friendly staff restrooms are always very clean along with the bounce houses reasonable price i would recommend to a friend!
Char and her staff make the experience like its going to Disney World every single time!! Tons of fun for kiddos!
Planning a 4 year old birthday party has NEVER been easier!
Sorry but very dirty place. Unorganized q
SUCKS SO BADDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD im with jack kallman
Employee was a little rude,only greeted some customers. Place was clean though
Rude employees, dont even say hello when you walk through the door. Why do you have children answering the door?
Great place for kids
Dirty and smelly
Kids loved it
Happy
Very dirty
My granddaughter had a great time
WHO RUNS THIS DUMP. I HEARD KIDS CRYING FOR THEIR PARENTS. THEY SAID SOMETHING LIKE, HELP HELP I FELL, THE STAFF SAYS well this happens all the time, we will go call a pediatric. REALLY!!!!!!! CLOSE THIS LOW LIFE DUMP DOWNNNNNNN!!!!!!!
