Hotel Saint Cecilia

We loved this place!!! We will be coming back here when we are in Austin. The staff was amazing. The food and drinks were excellent. We enjoyed the pool and it was close to some of our favorite restaurants.

This is the very definition of a “Boutique Hotel”. Everything about it is special; the design, the grounds, the vibe. It’s all sensational. Yes, it’s expensive. However, it’s hard to put a price on tranquil luxury in the center of Austin. Instead of a hotel pool with 75 people swimming in human soup, you get the most idyllic pool with maybe one or two other guests. Instead of jockeying for a spot at the bar, you get a lounge with a bartender who pays attention to you. This place is special, and we’ll be back for sure.

Beautiful grounds, lovely room with comfy sheets and bed!

We've stayed at the St. Cecilia twice and both times we've found the grounds, the rooms, the various facilities (pool, parking, kitchen, bar) were perfect. It's located near the cool stuff on S. Congress but a block away from the noise and is so very quiet and relaxing. The vegetation is lush, the wrought iron gates and lighting at night is very charming. The rooms are so unique. This will never feel like a "hotel" but rather some boutique mansion in the city.

Everything was impeccable and the property was stunning. They made the most incredible Beef Steak Tartare (double Yummy) and they customized a non alcoholic drink for me...he even supersized it...I can't recall the barmen's names but they were both very accommodating. I tried a white hot tea for the first time and I am hooked! Pool was very nice. I had 2 different rooms and both exceeded expectations. Lots of nearby shops, dining, gyms and plenty of parking. The bed was ultra cozy and my balcony overlooking the city was a pleasant surprise. I will try to upload photos later. It was a walkup (no elevator) but the staff immediately assisted with my suitcase. I would have liked to extend but I had to fly out again. Apart from that absolutely - No complaints. I will be sure to return. It is a special place.

No coffee maker in the room. Costs of all items were very high. Beautiful space but over priced.

Hotel Saint Ceclia is a beautiful hotel in the heart of the South Congress Ave shopping and restaurant district in Austin. The property is adorned with old oaks and English ivy that makes the grounds, restaurant, bar, and pool area feel very secluded. Our pool side cabana (No.11) was neat as a pin, spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The entire property has a 50s/60s cool vibe that isn’t contrived or pretentious. More like a throwback to Austin before Austin was discovered by the rest of the world. We relaxed, had some boozy cocktails, delicious meals, and a great time. Our new favorite Austin hotel.

Everything about my stay at the gorgeous St. Cecilia was just perfect. The staff are next level and made sure that my every need was taken care of. I can’t wait for my next stay. Thank you for a most memorable birthday weekend!!

Traveling with our two dogs. This was the most accommodating property we've ever visited with our pets. Great experience.

Great staff, properly and location.

That said, the air conditioner in our room wasn’t cooling properly, and the temperature never dropped below 74 degrees, which made it uncomfortable at times. Also, the bartender had a bit of frantic energy and the espresso martini unfortunately missed the mark. Overall, a lovely property with great food, but a few service and comfort issues kept it from being a perfect stay.

great staff.....great room, well stocked except for the vodka...someone refilled with water so when I went for a drink. Nice area.

One of the best hotels I’ve stayed at. Loved everything. Only complaint is that the pool was too cold. It didn’t stop me from swimming but it would have been much more enjoyable if warm. Other than that, the hotel was amazing and we will definitely be back!

Charming historic hotel in a great location, charming patio and cool lounge

Great

Stayed multiple times. Always amazing.

Location. Beautiful externally. Cockroaches and the smell of incense.
