Mount Bonnell is a lovely spot to take a breather. Enjoy a picnic lunch, wander around the grounds or just lie on the grass and shut your eyes for a while.

This recreation and green space is free to explore, so you can have a good time without dipping into your budget. However, Mount Bonnell isn't the only worthwhile sight in or around the riverside neighborhood of Mount Bonnell Terrace. With Zilker Park, Texas State Capitol and Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum nearby, you may want to stay a little longer.

Advertised as having a “breakfast buffet” but there wasn’t one. Just a restaurant where you can order/pay for breakfast. Generic bottles of water were $7. Parking overnight $68. Will never book again.

Our room was spotless, the beds comfortably, the staff kind and gracious. The location was perfect for us. Short walk to the local bars and restaurants. The property is well maintained and the grass area is the perfect place to unwind. Oh and the lobby was so beautiful. Will definitely recommend to friends and family
