The design of the 89-room hotel pays homage to the local lake house ethos of the early 1970's, situated amongst rolling grounds and natural beauty inspired by Texas. The Hotel Magdalena is also home to a restaurant, poolside bar, and several other spaces for hosting events and hanging out. Situated on Music Lane in the South Congress neighborhood amidst Austin's most vibrant culture and history, Hotel Magdalena overlooks downtown and the Capitol from steps away. Bunkhouse’s largest hotel to date, Hotel Magdalena features four new, but distinct, buildings connected by exposed elevated walkways and courtyards, creating a treehouse feel inside the grounds. The property sits at varying elevations, an homage to the slopes of Barton Springs, and the lush grounds are planted with native Texas species including Bigtooth Maples, Redbuds, Meyer Lemon Trees, Yaupon Holly, and Little Gem Magnolia.Show More

Cleanliness and in room service was excellent.
Very nice cool hotel (decoration and ambiance)
We felt that all was quite good with the exception of the restaurant, even though food was good, waiters are poorly trained and/or lack experience. Still they were polite and friendly.

Excellent location! We never used our car. Walked everywhere - excellent restaurants & shops steps away. Summer House restaurant & bar on site is wonderful! Room was nice & quiet. Try to stay there every visit.

Pool was closed for maintenance. That happens, but I specifically picked the hotel for the pool. Carpet in room had significant water damage by bathroom. The property is pretty new & this should be fixed. It is ncongruous with the vibe of the space

Gorgeous property right in the heart of Austin. Rooms are nicely appointed and comfortable. Staff was great. We enjoyed our stay!

Interiors could use some touch up. Toilet, sink faucet fixtures were loose, duvet had yellow stains, cleaners took toiletry items and returned the next day? Strange. Mornings are loud with blowers and power washing. Just a couple things but enjoyed the location and design of hotel minus the elevator. Very slow and couldn’t walk down stairs to leave hotel.

Great staff from Trent the valet, to the Summer House, Dessa and Blake. Walkable to shops and lovely linens.
