Anyway... I have always wanted to stay at this great boutique hotel in South Austin, The Saint Cecilia. However, because it is a small hotel and I rarely plan ahead, it is almost always booked. But this time I got in and we were lucky enough to stay in one of the bungalows which are very private, surrounded by trees and the main house is a historic landmark! This pet friendly hotel literally has soul built in and interesting quirks around each corner. The owner Liz Lambert did a fantastic job and it has set the bar high for any other hotel. Every little detail was thought out and I didn't want to leave... there was even a record player in our room - it was fun!
Plus, if you are traveling with dogs it is a great place to stay. Not only did they offer us dog bowls and beds for our pups but there was a little park right across the street! The hospitality was really wonderful and I won't ever forget it.
Here are some pics for you guys!

This is the view of the patio below our bungalow. I love the blue stained saltillo tiles! Great D.I.Y project for anyone who has saltillo tile in their home.
Thanks for stopping by!
What a beautiful place! The pool, the windows in the bedroom and all of those amazing floors! I'm sure you had a wonderful time. I love those coffee cups too, did you happen to get the name of the maker?
ReplyDeleteStunning, love the jungly location and those bamboo blinds
ReplyDeleteThanks for the posts!
ReplyDeleteAnn: I have a link to the mugs you like in today's blog post - they are by Iitala.
Insideology: I agree, the bamboo blinds really warmed up the room! If you are ever in Austin I highly recommend The Saint Cecilia or The San Jose. They are both owned by Liz Lambert and South Congress is the most fun area to stay.
