Boutique Hotels in Austin

Whether your visiting from out of town or you’re an Austinite who wants to play tourist for the weekend, a boutique hotel is a perfect place to stay! We’ve gathered some of our favorite boutique hotels located in the heart of the city that embody the Austin vibe.

💙 Hotel Indigo

Hotel Indigo is the perfect option for those who want to experience the unique atmosphere of the downtown Austin community. Centrally located in the Music District of Downtown Austin and surrounded by neon lights, Hotel Indigo has a great overall energy. Although we highly recommend exploring the city, there’s no need to leave to get some amazing food and drinks since Hotel Indigo has Ladybird kitchen + Rooftop Bar! A few recommendations we have while staying at Hotel Indigo would be to have a pool night with one of their signature cocktails, visiting 6th street for a night on the town, or trying out Taquero Mucho just a few blocks away!

As an added bonus, when you book a room at Hotel Indigo, you also have access to an exclusive Float On discount code!

🌺 Hotel Granduca

Hotel Granduca makes you feel like you’re on a vacation abroad while being located just minutes from Downtown Austin. When staying at Hotel Granduca, you will enjoy a mix of Tuscany and Texas with their classically modern designs. Your stay will be filled with relaxation, bliss, and beautiful outdoor scenery. If you’re wanting a unique get-a-way but don’t want to travel across the world to get it, Hotel Granduca is the perfect option.
