Casulo Hotel

Casulo Hotel may be minutes away from Congress Avenue's bustling shopping district, but it's zen decor lends a calm air to the place. Rain showerheads and six-foot baths help customers decompress after a day of exploring Austin; opt for the Jacuzzi Suite with an extra-deep Japanese bath if you really want to treat yourself. A free hot breakfast is offered daily from 6:30 to 10am, or you can stop by the hotel's bar in the evening (5-10pm) for a nightcap.
