About our Company:

Life gathers around water in Texas, and Hotel Magdalena honors our spring-fed culture and the

community that grows near it. The design of the 89-room hotel takes inspiration from the local

lake house ethos of the 1970s, situated amongst rolling grounds and natural beauty inspired by

Texas. The Magdalena is also home to Summer on Music Lane and Magdalena Bar,

offering locals and visitors alike more places to hang out and experience the best of Austin, off

of South Congress.

Summer on Music Lane, the full service restaurant at Hotel Magdalena, is inspired by the

casual sophistication that defines a lake house weekend. The menu features honest cooking

taking cues from old school hospitality but with a decidedly unpretentious, Austin sensibility. We

are open to the public every day of the week on South Congress, more than a hotel restaurant!

Hotel Magdalena is proud to be part of the Bunkhouse family. Bunkhouse is a hospitality

company that is founded on the pillars of design, music, and authentic community-driven

experiences. Bunkhouse operates and has designed, developed, and revitalized a celebrated

portfolio of hospitality projects throughout the U.S., which include Hotel San Jose, Hotel Saint

Cecilia, Austin Motel, Jo's Coffee, Equipment Room, The Carpenter Hotel and Carpenters Hall

in Austin; Hotel Havana and Ocho in San Antonio; Phoenix Hotel in San Francisco, California,

and Hotel San Cristobal and Benno in Todos Santos, Mexico, and Hotel Genevieve in Louisville,

Kentucky with plans for expansion and future projects throughout the U.S. and Mexico.
