“A trendy modern hotel in a prime riverside location with views on Lady Bird Lake. Rooms are undeniably cool with floor to ceiling windows, clean lines and soft grey hues. With a choice of four restaurants and an inventive rooftop cocktail bar, there's plenty to keep you entertained. ”

The Line Austin

The Line Austin is Bat City’s boldest big-time hotel, flaunting a talk-of-the-town restaurant, rooftop cocktail bar and infinity pool, all overlooking Lady Bird Lake and Congress Avenue Bridge, with its million bats swooping for your viewing delight every evening.
