Located in South Congress neighborhood on Music Lane, this 4-star Austin hotel spans across four interconnected buildings with elevated walkways and courtyards. Hotel Magdalena features 89 rooms equipped with MP3 docking stations, minibars, and Spanish tile bathrooms in four distinct colorways. The property's Summer House on Music Lane restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, highlighted by a live-fire grill and seasonal menu. The Magdalena Bar offers poolside cocktails, including frozen specialties like Piña Coladas. An outdoor swimming pool and garden provide recreational spaces, while complimentary wireless internet and concierge services cater to business needs. Some rooms include private balconies, and the grounds feature native Texas species such as Meyer Lemon Trees, Bigtooth Maples, and Redbuds. The property sits within 1 mile of Austin Convention Center and Auditorium Shores, with Austin-Bergstrom International Airport as the nearest air hub.

Pros

Property overlooks downtown Austin and the State Capitol

In-room cocktail service available upon request

Eight-seat intimate bar positioned in an airy central space

Native Texas landscaping creates natural surroundings

Cons

1 mile from main downtown attractions

Limited indoor dining space during inclement weather

“This hotel strikes a chord with its refreshing take on Austin's lake-house vibe, offering a cool escape from the city buzz. The outdoor bar sets a lively scene, while the restaurant's live-fire grill adds a touch of culinary drama. With its natural landscaping and cultural events, the hotel feels both stylish and deeply connected to the spirit of South Austin.”
