Austin Recs
Ann and Roy Butler Hike & Bike Trail
.3 mi from hotel | A scenic trail right along the water, perfect for walking, jogging, or biking.
South Congress
1.5 mi from hotel | Walkable stretch of cool shops, iconic murals, vintage stores, and some of Austin’s best eats and drinks. And for one of Austin’s most iconic (and magical) sights, head to South Congress Bridge just before sunset to watch millions of Mexican free-tailed bats take flight over Lady Bird Lake!
Rainey Street
0 mi from hotel | While it's grown a lot and feels more modern now, Rainey still has fun patio bars, music spots, and restaurants within steps of the hotel.
Veracruz All Natural
.2 mi from hotel | Some of the best tacos in Austin, great for breakfast or a casual bite before exploring downtown.
Terry Black's Barbecue
1.4 mi from hotel | Our favorite BBQ spot in the city. Cafeteria-style so no reservations. Wait times can be hit or miss but they generally move you through pretty quickly. One of the best meals you can get in Austin, in our opinion!
Emmer & Rye
.2 mi from hotel | High end spot right on Rainey Street. Food is incredible and it's very close to the hotel.
La Condesa
.8 mi from hotel | Upscale Mexican with some of the best bites and cocktails in the city. A great option for Friday night dinner as it's right below Malverde, where the Welcome Party will take place!
JuiceLand
.6 mi from hotel | Our go-to for healthy and refreshing smoothies and juices
Home Slice Pizza
1.5 mi from hotel | Iconic New York-style pizza in the heart of South Congress. If we're recommending this to family and friends visiting from NY and NJ, you know it's gotta be good.
Hopdoddy Burger Bar
.7 mi from hotel | (Semi) local spot for great burgers, fries, sides, and margaritas. It is order at the counter so there is never more than a 5 minute wait.
Loro Asian Smokehouse & Bar
3.1 mi from hotel | Asian smokehouse meets Texas barbecue. Very reasonably priced with great seating options. No reservations but you can arrive early, put your name in, and enjoy a drink while you wait.
