We stayed at Hotel Magdalena for 5 nights. Our stay was enjoyable overall but not as perfect as I would have hoped, given the price point. The Good: - Excellent location for visitors from out of town. Lots of restaurants, ice cream, coffee shops steps away. There is lots of shopping nearby but it's largely upscale. If you are a good walker, you can easily cross the South Congress bridge and explore downtown Austin. - The hotel is absolutely beautiful, inside and out. The grounds are landscaped and designed very well, and the pool was an excellent amenity. The Bad: - Upon checking in, I was notified of a hold on my card that was alarming to the least. I initially paid for 2 nights via Expedia and then later changed my reservation to stay 3 more nights, with the balance to be paid at the end of the stay. The amount authorized on my card was nearly 3X the balance owed, even including amenity fees and incidentals. They were very nice and fixed the "mistake" once asked, but it left me uneasy knowing that they could make such a serious error and not every guest would necessarily catch it. - The sliding bathroom door did not lock and would therefore slide open on its own occasionally. Not great for if you have guests over to your room.

We celebrate door anniversary here and it was a wonderful experience! I love the restaurant on site that served really great brunch items. The rooms were cute and modern. The hotel itself is off the Main Street on South Congress but completely walkable location. It was perfect! Parking is valet but it was easy and convenient. Would stay here again 10/10!

After check-out, I got a separate bill for an extra $28/day in extra "resort fees" because I booked on Expedia - which supposedly covers the WiFi and pool towels? Having an undisclosed extra fee after the fact is extremely irritating to me and is honestly enough to keep me from coming back again. Please note that parking is not included and parking in this area is very expensive, too. Good things: If you want to be in the mix of everything South Congress has to offer, this place is for you. If you're a bit of a party person, all the better! I found the suite perfectly spacious, well designed, clean, and comfortable. I really enjoyed the little balcony, open concept of the courtyard, the calm, cozy pool, and access to basically unlimited dining and shopping within a mile walk. As others have mentioned, there is some noise at night but nothing a white noise app can't fix. And I personally like that housekeeping doesn't come every day - I find that wasteful and intrusive.
