Hotel Magdalena

Hotel Magdalena is such a beautiful and comfortable hotel. My boyfriend and I are from Australia and had never been to Texas before and we didn’t realise the weather in the summer was so humid and tropical. This hotel feels like a tropical paradise. It’s covered in leafy green trees and bushes and the pool and all of the facilities just compliment it so beautifully. The location of the hotel is also perfect. So close to downtown (a 6 minute scooter or 20/30 minute walk) but in a great spot in South congress, which is a super cool area that feels a lot safer and has a better vibe (in my opinion) to Downtown. Could not recommend more.

The hotel was designed very nicely, with attention to detail. The location was also excellent, showing a different side to Austin. The pool area was nice, though small and not suited for any more than a third of the guests. - I paid for early check-in at 10 am, which they accepted but did not recognise. I then spent the next 5 hours waiting for my room. Only through continually asking if it was ready did I find out it was - no text or call. - The rooms are clean enough, but markings on the wall and deep dirt are pretty clear. The room setup was also strange. Our shower flooded every time it was used. The coffee machine was just placed inside the wardrobe, without a place to put it in the room. - The pool guy deserves a raise. One member of staff to serve roughly 40 people is insane. - The restaurant only serves brunch with really poor service also. Particularly from a gentleman who made us move tables and then scoffed when I asked if they served anything other than lunch. I said I had seen people buy the pool eating other food, he said: "No, they only serve a couple of things." - Overall, I was disappointed. There just is not anything about this place that justifies the price. It has potential but needs better management.

A distinctive hotel in a prime location for visiting beautiful Austin. The corner rooms with terraces are comfortable, though the limited interior lighting is a slight downside. Excellent cleanliness. Recommended. Lights

The hotel is ideally located right on South Congress, in a very walkable area with great options for shopping, restaurants, and bars. It also has a pool, which was a lifesaver during our visit — Austin was hot and humid, and being able to swim after a full day of sightseeing was wonderful. The pool is open from 9:00am to 10:00pm, which gives you plenty of time to use it. The staff is friendly and always willing to help. The day after we arrived, we checked out of the room around 11:00am expecting it to be cleaned by the time we returned. Unfortunately, when we got back at 6:00pm, the room was exactly as we had left it that morning. We ended up having to request housekeeping ourselves, and were careful to do so every subsequent night to avoid the same situation happening again.

I have so much good to say about this hotel. It was nice to be surrounded by trees and great landscaping. The art and decor were also incredible. There were some practical things missing about my room (no drawers, small closet, no wash clothes!) but the overall vibe, comfort, friendliness of the staff far outweighed those issues.

This place is very pretty

Perfect location, amazing breakfast, and all in style!!

Staff wasn’t friendly at all.

This is the perfect hotel for a weekend away. I was on a mother daughter trip. Also amazing for a couple or girls weekend. The food is of an excellent standard. Would happily eat all meals there. The live music on the grass on Saturday afternoon was worth the room rate alone. Loved it all.

No complaints. Great experience!

Great location. Beautiful hotel and amenities. Would stay there again

Great spot!

I loved my stay at the Hotel Magdalena. It was just off South Congress which made access to shopping, restaurants and coffee very convenient. The hotel was clean and the staff friendly. Checkin was super easy and I loved the noon checkout. We stayed in room 104. There was an alley just outside our window that took deliveries every morning at 6:30. Next time I would stay in an inner room. We did have a suite with a balcony, but I would’ve preferred a better view.

Incredible location. Close to everything but tucked away, nice and quiet.

Love this place! Thea ambiance and the food apart from the hotel being very clean and cool makes it a great place to stay!
