Hotel Magdalena

Hotel Magdalena

10/10 Excellent
"Beautifully designed hotel in the most wonderful area. We enjoyed the central location and being able to walk everywhere. The rooms and common areas have a unique and very creative interior design aesthetic. The large balconies outside the rooms provided a wonderful place to sit with coffee in the morning surrounded by nature. All of the staff was friendly and helpful. The pool is magnificent! We look forward to staying here again."

"What a great, little-known secret hotel. Don't judge by the lack of curb appeal. The rooms are great, large, open, full kitchen and even tea kettles. Real coffee cups and silverware and plates. I would absolutely stay here again."

"All the staff were very polite and positive. There was a young maintenance guy walking the hall very cheerful and polite didn't catch his name, and a lady Chante at the front desk, You could tell she loved her job and was such a joy during check in. You don't find that so much with younger people these days. Over all the rooms and the hotel were very well maintained and clean and that will be my hotel of choice on my next work trip to Austin."
