Hotel Saint Cecilia

Location. Beautiful externally.

Cockroaches and the smell of incense.

Everything. The pool, the lounge, the grounds. Our studio room was so cool and cozy. The record player and vintage couch were a nice touch. Gorgeous spacious bathroom and a comfy bed. The staff was incredible, we felt comfortable and taken care of. Couldn’t have been better.

It didn’t affect us, but climbing stone stairs with luggage could be a struggle for some! I’m sure accommodations can be made for those unable to carry bags up the steps.

Location and open space right on South Congress, restaurant is amazing, bar service and staff have been there forever and are all lovely

Relaxed vibe, very boutique feel with gorgeous decor everywhere..24 hr access to pool. Record player. Staff were super friendly and went above and beyond. Grounds felt really private and well maintained. Free parking. We stayed in 2 different rooms, both were lovely but preferred the pool bungalow for privacy and space. I can see why celebs choose to stay here. We wished we could stay longer but it was fully booked so they helped us book their sister hotel next door (Magdelena) which was also cute decor wise, great brekky & staff etc but had a lot of guests and was more rowdy and less personal than St Cecilia’s. Big shout out to Tara who looked after us, extended our stay and made sure a pregnancy pillow and heavy bags were sorted out ☺️

Almost everything was perfect but sadly the food/cafe needs work. Everything we had was overly salted, even the butter for croissants had like a teaspoon of salt on top. Sadly the morning coffee was either incorrect or awful everytime. There was 0 consistency. A flat white is not filtered coffee with a dash of milk. They always seemed to forget sugar. A trained barista and a chef who is not so heavy handed on the salt would step things up a level.

We loved all the details ! Definitely coming back next time we are in Austin!

The records, impeccable design, the amenities in the room, the staff is really kind, also located in a really lovely area

Great location and boho feel - spacious room. Car parking on site and excellent gym nearby which you can use as a guest

Staff were a bit grumpy when helping out and breakfast system was not great - hanging card the night before but not collected - felt ike they were short staffed

Loved everything about it! The depth of design thought of the rooms, the overall style, the hip quirkiness. The staff was welcoming, professional, helpful and kind.

Wish my stay could have been longer!

I had a piece of gum stuck to the bottom of the remote, they came and cleaned it up, but I felt that there should have been more done since I paid so much-- they said they would help out but didnt. odd. I choose night hotels bc I want them to be clean

Breakfast was delicious

Breakfast was very expensive- seemed disproportionate. I think a little more direction on how to get to check in would have been appropriate when we called from the parking lot. Considering the distance it would have been nice if someone had asked if we needed help with our bags.

The grounds, restaurant, pool, staff and rooms were all exceptional.

Quiet, unassuming, helpful staff, large comfortable room

Great location for visiting South Congress and downtown is walkable. Nice chilled surroundings.

Very expensive for what it is and no breakfast included - apart from location it lacked any extras and would not qualify as a high-end hotel in Europe. Nice pool but music too loud so not as relaxing as you’d expect.

We booked a king studio but ended up staying in a poolside bungalow. It was very spacious & clean. Loved having two private outdoor seating areas. The location was perfect for exploring S. Congress & an easy walk to 6th St. The grounds were beautiful. Staff were all nice. We didn't use the pool, but it was heated and clean (a few leaves but that's expected).

Super frustrating trying to get ready, especially when staying for 4 nights. The bathroom is way too dark to apply makeup. Attempted to get ready at the breakfast table which again was super dark. Tried sliding it closer to the window. The table literally weighs over a hundred pounds with these iron legs jutting out on the left side of each corner. Watch your knees! Resorted to getting ready on the patio every morning. Thankfully it was private. The refrigerator is crammed full of their own products for you to purchase. There is no coffee maker or hot water kettle. The mattress needs to be replaced as you can feel the springs. The record player does not work even after having the missing needle replaced.

We loved the location, the staff, the room and the vibe of the hotel. It was walking distance to downtown but being on south congress, had such a far away feel. The room was spotless and the bed was so comfortable. We are moving around a lot in Texas and this is by far our favourite hotel and we’ll be back the next time we’re in Austin!

We would have loved some tea and coffee making facilities in the room.

Perfect location just enough off of South Congress to feel like a peaceful oasis. Great staff, fun and comfortable room, and really lovely grounds. Can’t wait to return.

The facilities are nice. No doubt.

Being called 17 times in one day to pay a $50 minibar tab. While being clear I was waiting for a new debit card bc mine was frozen bc of suspected fraud, I was crystal clear it would be paid. My experience started w $186 paid room at sister property that was cancelled without anyone alerting me. Walked next door and paid $400 or $500 for room. No apologies just a cocksure arrogance to wade through. It wasn’t the waste of money, it was bumptious lackey calls for no reason that has Four Seasons on speed dial. Pound sand Fancy.

property in a garden , nice neighborhood, nice staff , large clean room with nicely arranged furnitures and materials , wellmaintained swimming pool area

a little too expensive

Claudia provided excellent customer service. I loved how we could borrow vinyl records for the room. Our studio had a great view of the city and we enjoyed drinks on our patio and a delicious breakfast.

Beautiful property with peaceful setting. Spacious room 7 overlooking courtyard.Super cosy & comfortable beds & pillows.

Would be difficult to bring my elderly mom with her mobility issues and some steps to pool are uneven from front desk area.
