Hotel Saint Cecilia

Rock ’n’ roll is one of the inspirations behind the décor and mood at this small boutique hotel, and you may feel like a rock star yourself at the heated, 24-hour lap pool. You can indulge in poolside dining or even settle inside a poolside bungalow. Opened in 2008, every room has a turntable, and you can borrow albums from the lobby. It also boasts a certain celebrity cachet; recent guests include Pearl Jam, Dave Matthews, and the Foo Fighters—the latter of whom recorded their latest EP on site while they were in town for Austin City Limits.
