    I absolutely loved my stay here, this 4 star hotel reminds me of a luxury glamping style resort. It is gated so it feels more secure and safe with all the beautiful lights within it. I arrived early and the wonderful lady at the front desk was very welcoming, she let me check in early and even offered a complimentary drink and with such a hot day out it was just what I needed! The whole layout was nice, beautiful pool with a nice bar. Tons of sitting areas and fire pits. I admit I did not walk the whole facility so I'm sure I missed a lot. A restaurant onsite and even a few food trucks near the parking lot. The room was wonderful, I loved the style you can tell they put a lot of thought into it. 2 rocking chairs and a table right outside your door, upon entering snacks and fully stocked fridge, the cute smeg fridge, and the nice sized bathroom and shower had ample room. The toiletries were a convenient touch as well as the bath robes. With this hotel being within walking distance from the Domain it was very quiet and peaceful. Side notes- check in is 3pm and check out is 12pm. $100 deposit at check in. The site says free parking but that needs to be updated because you do pay a fee whether it's a daily fee or overnight fee. No carpet in the rooms so be sure to bring some comfy slippers. Thank you for a wonderful stay staff I will be returning

    Oatmeal was great and had a delicious pecan mix on the side.

    Obsessed with this hotel! If the model town in Beetlejuice had an Austin version, this hotel would be in it. It has a unique, Texas retro, mildly quirky Austin vibe, smack in the middle of the Domain shopping area. It's located across from Maggionos and Dillards but walkable to lots more. The office, rooms and toiletries smell wonderful! I purchased one of their room sprays this time. The AC work even on the hottest Texas days. Wonderful shower head and spacious shower. Rooms and bathrooms aren't crowded have always been remarkably clean with comfortable beds. I didn't eat at the restaurant this time but did order the cheese tray and room service. My room service arrived 12 minutes ahead of schedule and was cooked perfectly. I always fear it will be noisy with traffic and people within the courtyard but I am always pleasantly surprised. I have never had an interaction with the staff that wasn't above average. On this trip, I found Andrew especially helpful.

    It's not too warm but the sun is just right to relax today

    2025!!! I finally made it back - As I sit in my porch balcony rocking chair, it is 9:15 AM, it's beautiful out and I have to check out today. I really love this hotel. I love the rooms. I love the staff. I love the grounds, love what they've done here, this to me is a real vacation, a time to unwind and destress, the pool, outside bar, the fire pits, place to lounge. Food trucks in the parking lot, restaurant with live music, a great weekend getaway. Important facts, the fridge is stocked with beverages. These are chargeable. On the coffee table is a tub of snacks. These are chargeable. parking in the lot out front you have to pay for via an app. (I believe it's for the city not for the hotel.) I used the shampoo and conditioner and my hair is super dry right now, I don't know if it's from the product or from the water and just I know I have a lot of problems with my hair so I typically try to only use the products that I bring but every once in a while, I feel adventurous. There's a nice closet inside the room, there's a coffee maker and some coffee supplies in there. there's also an umbrella which came in handy and I was sure to return back to its natural state. It doesn't look like it's the newest so I don't want to get charged an exorbitant fee for using an umbrella one time. If you use the rear exit of the hotel when you drive out, circle all the way to the back drive all the way straight until you can't go anymore and then you hook a right there's a Cavender's boots and a Dairy Queen RESTAURANT. This might not seem interesting to people who live in Texas and have these things, but as a tourist, I was super excited . Additionally, staying here, a little outside of the downtown area, means that you are that much closer to Round Rock Donuts, which are in my opinion, the best. 20 minute drive to downtown. Con- no microwave in the room. Leftovers are eaten cold.

    Repeat visitor I stayed at LSC last year and was back to Austin again this week. I live the potential, but this visit just fell short. On check in I noticed the toilet was running but figured I'd give it a few flushes to see if it stopped. It didn't. On night two I found a few cockroaches in the room so I called the front office and also mentioned the toilet. They told me they'd give me a room credit and fix the toilet. Day 3, toilet is still running. Got my email receipt after checkout, no room credit. Love the atmosphere and location of the property but it seems to need some better upkeeping for the rate charged.

    Lone Star Court was such a fun and relaxing stay. The courtyard and pool area are beautiful and feel like a little oasis in the middle of the Domain. Staff were friendly, check-in was easy, and the room was clean, comfortable, and quiet at night. Great location for walking to shops and restaurants--would definitely stay here again.

    What a fine find! This is tucked in to The Domain area and you almost can walk right by it without knowing it's a hotel. We loved our stay (which was too short). We had 7 rooms booked for a quick family get-together. This was the perfect place for this. There are many outdoor seating areas and you can always pull the rockers (outside each room) for more outdoor seating. We were there on a Sunday night so it was quiet. Gas fire pits are lit at dusk and there are many wood fire pits around that could be lit when the weather and conditions allow. Check in was super easy (and make sure you ask for a complimentary Maine Root root beer). The rooms are spacious but have a minimalist vibe (maybe because of the concreate floors). I HAVE NEVER SEEN A MINI BAR LIKE THIS! It's a full retro fridge stocked with everything and anything you might want. The same is true of the snacks available. Complimentary coffee is available in the mornings in the restaurant area. This is a very dog friendly location! I would love to return to explore The Domain area more and to just to continue to veg. Parking was easy and there's one generic EV charger.

    Awesome signage.

    The hotel is located on the skirts of an upscale mall (the Domain) but it's absolutely charming. I guess you could call it a "boutique" hotel, whatever that means. When you first check in, you get a free beer or a free root beer. That's right. After you check in, they offer you a free beer (Lone Star, sadly), root beer, or other beverage. That's super smart customer service. The room decor is retro funky and very cute. The beds and pillows are very comfortable and far nicer than you get in a chain hotel or motel. The room and bathroom are both spacious, as is the shower. The shower was, in fact, great. There's a full-size fridge in the room, stocked with booze, so don't take anything unless you are willing to pay. There are also snacks in a basket in the room, but they aren't free so word to the wise. There's a smallish swimming pool on the property although it wasn't heated during our visit and the water was really too cold to enjoy. They have a nice restaurant on site with live music on Friday and Saturday nights (check the online schedule). We really enjoyed the music. There are two rocking chairs outside each room door. Parking is free. Rates were reasonable. It's located about 20 minutes north of downtown Austin and I would absolutely stay here again. It's a unique, funky, comfortable hotel that is a far cry from the usual cookie cutter properties.

    BEAUTIFUL property and funny its a busy location but doesn't feel like you're in the middle of the Domain once you check in. The grounds felt very private and a cute 50s/60s theme throughout. There's lots of trees which helps it feel quiet and almost like a camp cabin. The check in was seamless and friendly with free beer and water offered at the front desk. The service at the bar /restaurant was also top notch. The room was clean, spacious, and the fridge is stocked with everything you could think of for almost a full bar. The amenities are well maintained and plenty of towels available on either end of the pool.

    Seen better with a flash.

    Lone Star court is a unique hotel/motel. I guess you would think motel because the doors open to the outside courtyard. The staff is very nice and friendly. The rooms are very clean. Full mini bar and stocked fridge at somewhat reasonable prices. The decoration is cool but the one thing we hated about the place is the huge metal bed frames that dominate the room. They look harmless at first however the frames are larger than the mattresses and the heavy mattresses are attached against the headboard leaving the metal frame jutting out into the room. The steel frames dark color, in the dark room is an absolute trip hazard. Also just as bad is that the leg of the frame is right on the corner as opposed to 10-12 inches under the bed. I was walking by the bed toward the door and I clipped the frame with my shin. The steel frame broke the skin under my jeans and I fell and face planted on the mattress. WTF Didn't see that coming! Minutes later my wife almost tripped over it too. (No we weren't drunk, just checked in lol) We were only there for a night and didn't want to mess with moving, but sure as heck didn't want to hit that darn frame again, so we stuck the provided robes and towels over the corners and used the trash cans as a barrier to avoid tripping or breaking a toe during the night. Other than some drunk noisy neighbors that decided to have a loud conversation outside our door at 2 am everything else was fine. (They quickly went inside and were quiet after my wive opened the door and let them know it was 2am) Overall I gave an average rating because the place really does have potential, and the staff was super nice. Just please do something about the bed frames!

We also dined at Nido, the hotel's restaurant, for both dinner and breakfast, and it was definitely a highlight. Located on the topmost floor, Nido offers stunning views of the river and downtown Austin. With both indoor and outdoor seating, the ambiance is elegant and ideal for a special evening. During our visit, we saw a couple of groups celebrating birthdays and wedding anniversaries, which shows how perfect this place is for special occasions. The pricing is on the higher side, but it matches the upscale experience and beautiful setting. For dinner, we ordered the Burrata as an appetizer and the Autumn Garden for the main course, along with an American IPA and a Jack Frost cocktail. Everything was delicious, but the Burrata truly stood out as my favorite. Breakfast was equally enjoyable--we had custom-made omelettes with veggies and avocado toast, both fresh and flavorful. Overall, The Loren Hotel, along with Nido, offers a great blend of comfort, excellent food, and a beautiful atmosphere. A perfect choice if you're looking to celebrate something special or simply treat yourself to a high-end experience.

The Friday night gathering was amazing. It was a perfect setting on the eight floor to talk, mingle, and meet new people. The evening was warm enough to go outside on the balcony/deck and have conversations and enjoy a breeze. The room itself is large with a water station and a bar. A few short tables were set up for sitting and a few tall ones for standing. They had a nice selection of drinks from beer and wine to mixed drinks. The food included lobster rolls, sliders (chicken and beef), a tray of different veggies and dips, little balls of cheese and something, and aroncini? My favorite was canapés of Mellon and prosciutto. The saltiness of the prosciutto added to the flavor of the melon. This event was 5***** I blame the architect for the room setup. Why would you put bedrooms on the side of a hotel next to traffic. The noise, honking and sirens. It finally quieted down around 11:30. Saturday was also an issue. They do provide ear plugs and sound machines, neither works for me. I was also surprised there was no lotion in the room. There was no microwave. Everything else in the room was top notch. Robes, slippers, a safe, a bar, and fridge. Overall, the noise is what created the 3*** rating. That was very disappointing.

Upon…read morewalking to our room into the main hallway, there is a lingering musty smell that lingers. We had a clean and tidy suite on the first level. Two double beds were comfy and plenty of towels. Our first night's stay was decent. Surprised to know they seem to use softened water because it made our skin feel slippery. I noticed the shower gel holder was falling out of the wall. A precarious situation of having to carefully pull the mechanism to dispense without pulling too hard. I did notify the night staff but the next day, it didn't seem like anyone came to fix it. No extra body wash or soap was provided even when I asked for some. The wall sockets with the en-suite appliances was not usable. The electrical outlets weren't working so we couldn't toast anything, use the kettle, or the coffee machine. Couldn't find one with a GFCI breaker to reset that side so gave up. Interestingly, the full-sized fridge and microwave were working ok though. The rod for one of the window curtains fell off while opening them. Because it's floor to ceiling we just left it alone. The common spaces around the property are well decorated, from the Library, Executive board room, kids corner, gym/yoga studio, and outdoor lounge space. Although, the snack/tea/coffee station with Keurig isn't filled maintained often. We had to ask the night staff to refill the water for tea and the lobby water dispenser was constantly low as well. On our second to last day, I found the hot water and still water station downstairs at Simona's. Pros: Clean, comfy, affordable stay. Enjoyed the bottomless drip coffee $5 and their signature Breakfast at Tiffany's latte. Also appreciated them letting us do late checkout and upgrade our room. Cons: Complimentary water station, Keurig / snack station, overall maintenance of room amenities could be handled better. Warning: If booking from 3rd party (BILT, Capital One Portal...) the added parking is not the same price that's on Colton's House's website. It's actually $40/day (with in/out privileges). However if booking directly through Colton House for stays, parking is 50% off at $20. Would we stay here again in the future? Most likely not. For an SLH property, we may look for another better-maintained option in the future.
