Where Lady Bird Lake meets downtown Austin stands the LINE Hotel, a masterful blend of mid-century architecture and modern soul. Since 2018, this cultural landmark has become a magnetic hub where musicians, artists, and culture-seeking travelers converge to experience Austin’s distinctive spirit.
A Legacy of Music and Modernism
The property’s story begins in 1965 as the Crest Inn, a modernist icon that became legendary for its Club Seville – a vibrant jazz club that broadcast live performances across Austin via KAZZ-FM. Today, the LINE Austin honors this musical heritage while embracing its evolution into a contemporary cultural destination.
Rooms That Reflect Austin’s Soul
Each of the 428 guest rooms, including 108 entertainment-ready suites, captures Austin’s creative energy. Exposed concrete columns meet sandblasted plywood headboards, while strategically placed lighting mimics Austin’s seasonal fireflies. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame stunning views of Lady Bird Lake or the city skyline, creating a seamless connection between urban energy and natural beauty.
Culinary Excellence and Innovation
The LINE’s dining experiences celebrate Austin’s renowned food scene:
Arlo Grey, helmed by Top Chef winner and now-host Kristen Kish, offers lakeside dining that transforms Central Texas ingredients into soulful, memorable dishes.
Cantero pays homage to Texas’s native spirit, sotol, while featuring mezcal and tequila in an unpretentious setting that epitomizes Austin’s bar culture.
P6, the transformed sixth-floor parking garage, now serves as an open-air lounge offering seasonal cocktails and small plates alongside South Austin skyline views and Congress Bridge bat-watching opportunities.
For casual fare, Veracruz All Natural brings coastal Mexican-inspired tacos from sisters Reyna and Maritza Vazquez, while Alfred Coffee provides signature caffeinated drinks for Austin’s dawn-to-dusk lifestyle.
