Lone Star Court

The hotel is located on the skirts of an upscale mall (the Domain) but it's absolutely charming. I guess you could call it a "boutique" hotel, whatever that means.

When you first check in, you get a free beer or a free root beer. That's right. After you check in, they offer you a free beer (Lone Star, sadly), root beer, or other beverage. That's super smart customer service.

The room decor is retro funky and very cute. The beds and pillows are very comfortable and far nicer than you get in a chain hotel or motel. The room and bathroom are both spacious, as is the shower. The shower was, in fact, great.

There's a full-size fridge in the room, stocked with booze, so don't take anything unless you are willing to pay. There are also snacks in a basket in the room, but they aren't free so word to the wise.

There's a smallish swimming pool on the property although it wasn't heated during our visit and the water was really too cold to enjoy.

They have a nice restaurant on site with live music on Friday and Saturday nights (check the online schedule). We really enjoyed the music.

There are two rocking chairs outside each room door.

Parking is free. Rates were reasonable.

It's located about 20 minutes north of downtown Austin and I would absolutely stay here again. It's a unique, funky, comfortable hotel that is a far cry from the usual cookie cutter properties.

What a fine find! This is tucked in to The Domain area and you almost can walk right by it without knowing it's a hotel. We loved our stay (which was too short). We had 7 rooms booked for a quick family get-together. This was the perfect place for this. There are many outdoor seating areas and you can always pull the rockers (outside each room) for more outdoor seating. We were there on a Sunday night so it was quiet. Gas fire pits are lit at dusk and there are many wood fire pits around that could be lit when the weather and conditions allow.

Check in was super easy (and make sure you ask for a complimentary Maine Root root beer).

The rooms are spacious but have a minimalist vibe (maybe because of the concreate floors). I HAVE NEVER SEEN A MINI BAR LIKE THIS! It's a full retro fridge stocked with everything and anything you might want. The same is true of the snacks available.

Complimentary coffee is available in the mornings in the restaurant area.

This is a very dog friendly location! I would love to return to explore The Domain area more and to just to continue to veg. Parking was easy and there's one generic EV charger.

Great hotel. Wonderful staff. Perfect location. Mike sez check em out! Laid back !
Pool is very chill. Music some evenings is a treat!

This hotel has a nice courtyard. It's secluded and you get feeling that you're in a wooded area instead of the city of Austin. The food and drinks at the Water Trough was good.

What a cute hotel! My husband and I stayed here for one night and I was impressed by how spacious the room felt. The bed was very comfy unlike the pillows. I don't mind a soft pillow, but it had no support whatsoever, so my husband did not sleep well. The tv comes with Netflix and HBO. This is a tiny detail, but I appreciate that the toilet paper roll is actually in reach of the toilet and they provide cotton rounds as well as q-tips. Our room was stocked with a ton of snacks and the fridge was loaded, but you can never justify the prices for these items. We were there for only one night, so we didn't utilize the courtyard, but it looked so nice! There was plenty of seating and games like corn hole. I would definitely stay here again!

BEAUTIFUL property and funny its a busy location but doesn't feel like you're in the middle of the Domain once you check in.

The grounds felt very private and a cute 50s/60s theme throughout. There's lots of trees which helps it feel quiet and almost like a camp cabin.

The check in was seamless and friendly with free beer and water offered at the front desk. The service at the bar /restaurant was also top notch.

The room was clean, spacious, and the fridge is stocked with everything you could think of for almost a full bar.
The amenities are well maintained and plenty of towels available on either end of the pool.

I really liked this property but there were fraudulent minibar charges on my credit card. After reading through other reviews, I see this is a consistent issue. CHECK YOUR CREDIT CARD! Very frustrating to have to deal with this. They were supposed to email me a receipt and never did. Now I see why...

Had a reservation for tonight and when we showed up I was told they were full. I booked through Priceline and feel that I was probably canceled when someone wanted to book direct. Very disappointed. This hotel should not be on Priceline if they are not going to honor the reservation

Fantastic hotel with fun retro vibes in an super convenient location in the domain. Some highlights for me: excellent staff who provided great customer service, great happy hour, free parking and WiFi and the cutest property! My room was spacious with lots of snacks and drinks for purchase and a super comfy bed. Would absolutely stay again!

This place was so cute! The rooms are fun and quirky with a homey feel and the courtyard is fun and full of activities. All the staff was super nice and helpful and the dog Whisky was super friendly and cute! I would definitely recommend the Lone Star Court Hotel!!
