Hotel Magdalena - A lakehouse-inspired retreat with live-fire dining and pool in South Congress
Situated on Music Lane in the vibrant South Congress neighborhood, this 4-star Austin hotel features 89 rooms spread across four distinct buildings connected by elevated walkways and courtyards. Hotel Magdalena's design pays homage to 1970s lake house architecture, with rooms showcasing Spanish tile in four colorways, desk inlays, and Santa & Cole lamps. The property includes an outdoor swimming pool and garden surrounded by native Texas species like Meyer Lemon Trees, Bigtooth Maples, and Redbuds. Summer House on Music Lane, Magdalena's full-service restaurant, operates with a live-fire grill and serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, while the poolside bar offers frozen cocktails including Piña Coladas. Each air-conditioned room comes equipped with MP3 docking stations, minibars, and rainfall showerheads, with select units featuring balconies. The location provides direct access to South Congress Avenue, positioning guests 0.5 miles from Congress Avenue Bridge and 1 mile from 6th Street.

The poolside bar and live-fire restaurant add to the hotel's appeal as a social hub, complementing its proximity to the area's vibrant cultural scene. It's a stylish urban retreat that prioritizes both relaxation and engagement with local attractions.”
