W Austin is a bonafide icon in the center of the Live Music Capital of the World. We were, after all, the very first luxury lifestyle hotel in Austin, Texas. And now, our latest chapter has arrived after a $40 million renovation: from entirely redesigned guest rooms, which nod to Texas’ natural beauty, to all new dining and drinking options, including our restaurant Serenade and its revamped courtyard, W Austin is a true social hub within the city’s heart. We’re a place where sounds float through the air, tastes of refined Texan smoke and French flavors fill our plates, and social electricity flourishes over morning coffees at 2nd and Roast and nightcaps at Blue Room. We’re a haven for rest and relaxation, too – just grab a chaise at our rooftop WET Deck, signature massage at AWAY Spa, or head out for a jog along Lady Bird Lake. Welcome to the all-new W Austin: Beyond the Limits.
Serenade reimagines a classic brasserie through a Lone Star lens, creating one of Austin’s most central and relaxed dining destinations. Welcome to a place where the allure of French oak meets the draw of Texas smoke.
2nd & Roast coffee bar is the perfect start to your day, featuring local Austin roasted coffee by Medici Roasters and Spirit Teas. Pair your favorite morning beverage with a house-made pastry in the shop, on the go, or in the W Austin Living Room.
The Living Room Bar offers light bites and delicious drinks all day, plenty of seating nooks, plus live DJs on Friday and Saturday nights. It's a perfect core to congregate.
The Blue Room is W Austin's by-reservation cocktail bar. A secret hidden almost in plain sight, this clandestine watering hole is a seating only experience in which Austin's brightest mixologists craft classic and custom cocktails alike.
Explore 50 years of PBS’s Austin City Limits. Discover the stories and secrets behind the legendary TV series and gain VIP access to the famed ACL Live venue. Show your hotel room key in the ACL Live retail store for a 10% discount.
The WET Deck goes above and beyond a standard hotel pool, with Day Passes, rentable cabanas and verandas, and DJs every Sunday.

Just How Green Are We?
Since the early seventies, Scott Newton has artfully chronicled and captured the iconic moments of Austin’s music scene. His work spans Austin musical history continuously from 1970 on, longer than anyone else working the Austin music scene. Showcasing these legendary moments, Newton’s striking photographs bring music to life and can be seen in each of W Austin’s guest rooms.
Each print has a story. Whether it’s Willie Nelson running in a race, Jimmy Buffet drinking a beer or Merle Haggard performing at Willie’s Fourth of July Picnic, Scott was there to capture all the remarkable (and sometimes emotional) moments that made these famous musicians who they are today.
Other notable greats that line the wall in W Austin’s guest rooms collection include Elvis Costello, Mick Jagger, Waylon Jennings, Jimmy Buffett, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, James Brown, Stevie Nicks, Fleetwood Mac, plus many more from the 70s and early 80s.
Scott has been the official photographer of Austin City Limits since 1979. Before that, he served as house photographer for the Austin Opera House.
His work can also be seen throughout Austin at the Keller-Pfluger Gallery at the Moody Theater, etc. In 2010, Scott’s Austin City Limits photographs were exhibited for six months at The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio.
Need a great gift for the music lover? Scott has published several books to his name including Austin City Limits—A History in Photographs and more recent, "Austin City Limits -- A Monument to Music". Feel free to also take a look through his ACL galleries, which can be purchased, or take a glance at his signed fine art at the Modern Rocks Gallery. Definitely worth a look.
