A true pearl of North Austin, the Archer Hotel offers a high-end, chic stay for its guests. The interior design pays homage to its city, and the eight-story exterior’s limestone and wildflowers are a nod to its Texas roots. The on-site Second Bar + Kitchen serves up handmade cocktails and an acclaimed menu from chef David Bull. Guests can rent cabanas by the pool deck, and the city’s popular Domain outdoor mall is a short drive away.

Inspired by the motels of the old days and its Austin and Texas Hill Country heritage, the Lone Star Court by Valencia Hotels looks like a ski lodge but with the luxury of a true boutique. Located inside North Austin’s Domain outdoor mall, the Court’s rooms pop with color and offer a mix of mid-century modern and backwoods cabin design. The vintage look of the pool deck, surrounded by the wooden walls of the lodge, creates a cozy, peaceful atmosphere. At night, take a trip outside and warm up near a campfire while sipping on some of the handcrafted cocktails from the hotel bar.
