"Situated on Music Lane in Austin’s vibrant South Congress neighborhood on the same land as a former motel owned by Willie Nelson, Hotel Magdalena is the latest Austin addition from the Bunkhouse hotel group. Similar to its long-beloved sibling hotels nearby, Hotel Magdalena charms with colorful decor and community-driven social spaces, hallmarks of the brand."

Vogue

"With free courtyard concerts and a legendary SXSW event, the hotel has become synonymous with Austin's music scene. Guests of all ages check in to submerge themselves in all that South Congress has to offer, from vintage shopping to live music and eclectic dining."

"Also in the small city of Todos Santos, the glamorously retro-inspired Hotel San Cristóbal is a 32-room oasis with a beachfront, open-air restaurant, heated pool, colorful lounge, an intimate library, seaside mirador, and even a stylish boutique. There’s even a historic chapel, dubbed La Capilla, on the property where plenty of guests have tied the knot."
