A new luxury hotel has opened inside the tallest building in Texas, bringing 252 rooms, rooftop dining, wellness facilities and panoramic views to downtown Austin.<\/p>\n
1 Hotel Austin occupies the first 16 floors of Waterline, the 74-story mixed-use tower rising beside Waller Creek and Lady Bird Lake in the Rainey Street District. It is the first Texas property for the sustainability-focused 1 Hotels brand.<\/p>\n
The hotel includes 60 suites and combines nature-led interiors with restaurants, a rooftop pool, spa and extensive planting designed to create an urban retreat between downtown Austin and the city\u2019s waterfront parklands.<\/p>\n

The tower has become Austin\u2019s first supertall building and the tallest tower in Texas, creating a new landmark on the city\u2019s rapidly changing skyline.<\/p>\n Guest rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows and use natural materials including responsibly sourced timber, stone and woven textiles. Many look toward Lady Bird Lake and Austin\u2019s surrounding green spaces, while suites include larger living areas and, in some cases, wraparound balconies.<\/p>\n The property also features around 10,000 square feet of flexible meeting space, a 2,000-square-foot fitness centre and a rooftop pool deck on the 16th floor overlooking the city.<\/p>\n More Than 4,000 Plants and an On-Site Apiary<\/p>\n Nature is central to the hotel\u2019s design, with more than 4,000 plants representing over 30 species used throughout the property. A living plant wall and extensive native landscaping connect the interiors with Waller Creek and Lady Bird Lake outside.<\/p>\n An on-site apiary will supply honey for the hotel\u2019s food and beverage programme, while filtered water taps, reusable materials and other sustainability measures form part of the brand\u2019s environmental approach. The property is also pursuing LEED Gold certification.<\/p>\n Dining includes Alte\u00f1o Austin from Michelin-starred chef Johnny Curiel, alongside the rooftop Watr restaurant and bar. The hotel also offers Bamford Wellness Spa treatments and places guests close to Austin\u2019s music venues, restaurants, Waterloo Greenway and the 10-mile trail around Lady Bird Lake.<\/p>\n 1 Hotels Makes Its Texas Debut<\/p>\n The opening gives 1 Hotels its first property in Texas and adds another luxury hotel to Austin\u2019s expanding hospitality market. The city has attracted a wave of new boutique and upscale developments as visitor demand, technology-sector growth and major events continue to reshape the downtown hotel market.<\/p>\n Waterline\u2019s location also gives the hotel a strong leisure angle, placing guests between the high-rise centre of Austin and some of the city\u2019s most-used outdoor spaces rather than within a purely commercial downtown setting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A new luxury hotel has opened inside the tallest building in Texas, bringing 252 rooms, rooftop dining, wellness…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":442000,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[132,134,133],"class_list":["post-441999","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-austin","tag-austin","tag-austin-headlines","tag-austin-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/441999","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=441999"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/441999\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/442000"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=441999"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=441999"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=441999"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
