Hotel San Jose

Visit the Website
The romantic outdoor garden of this Austin institution is every bit as hip as the hotel itself. It's really only worth it in good weather, when you can sit at the dimly lit tables around the pool, take in the retro vibe of the architecture, and sip from a very basic selection of beer and wine (no liquor is served here).

from $175.00

    • The hotel offers lots of vintage rentals like typewriters, bicycles, and Polaroid cameras. Check them out to escape from twenty-first century life.

    • My absolute favorite place in Austin. Beautiful atmosphere, beautiful people... this is my version of Austin! Although I still think micheladas taste like vomit...there's is good!
      by Tim P. on Aug 24, 2009 at 6:04PM
    • While the Mexican beer selection is lacking, go ahead and order a michelada with Modelo. Extra spicy if you think you can handle it.

Fun place to meet friends after work

Rating: 10

I met friends there after work and had a great time. It's a great space and vibe. People can keep coming and going and the staff is completely accommodating. We spent the greater part of the evening there and would definitely return.
