“Well-known as one of the world’s must-visit music events, South by Southwest attracts thousands of performers and fans to Austin, Texas every March. But it’s not just an eclectic mix of music on the bill – film and comedy star too, along with media and tech innovations at this huge cultural gathering. Whether you’re heading to Austin to see or be seen, check out these five hotels in Austin for SXSW.<\/p>\n

Firehouse Hostel, Brazos Street
——————————–<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As you’d expect, affordable places to stay in the most sought-after areas in Austin get booked up way in advance of the festival. So you’d better be quick about it if you want to snap up your space at the Firehouse Hostel<\/a>. Right in the heart of the action in downtown Austin, this cooler-than-cool hostel offers multi-occupancy rooms and suites with breakfast included, so you can easily fuel up before heading out for the day.<\/p>\n

Hotel Indigo, Red River Street
——————————-<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Between the packed line-up of speakers, browsing next-gen VR developments at the exhibition venues and stumbling across impromptu gigs in out-of-the-way bars, you may not end up having much downtime during your SXSW adventure. But if you stay at the Hotel Indigo<\/a>, you’ll be able to spend the snatches of free time you do get relaxing by the outdoor pool.<\/p>\n

– – – – – –<\/p>\n

Extended Stay America, Guadalupe Street
—————————————-<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As well as a capital of music and culture, Austin is also a hotspot for food and drink aficionados. From Tex-Mex to BBQ, donuts to cookie shakes, margaritas to craft beers, the city rounds up all the best things about American (and especially Texan) cuisine and does each one to a tee. Austin is also home to a couple of good farmer’s markets, and if you want to make the most of local produce and cook for yourself, you could try Extended Stay America<\/a>, where rooms have kitchens.<\/p>\n

Kimpton Hotel Van Zandt, Davis Street
————————————–<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If you’re looking to treat yourself to the ultimate SXSW experience, the chilled-out vibe, modern design features and spot-on location of the Kimpton Hotel Van Zandt<\/a> might just tick all your boxes. Located in the historic district within easy reach of the festival’s hotspots, it’s got a rooftop pool, an in-house live music stage, and views of the city and Lady Bird Lake. And when you’re ready to unwind, try a soak in the oversized bathtubs.<\/p>\n

Lone Star Court, The Domain
—————————-<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Being able to take time out from the full-on festival programme could be a good option if you’re into the music but not so keen on the crowds. Lone Star Court<\/a> is a retro ranch-styled boutique retreat in the Domain shopping and dining complex just over 10 miles north of Downtown Austin; a stay here makes it easy to take a breather with an outdoor pool, free bikes to borrow and a shuttle service to get you where you need to go.<\/p>\n
