Our favourite rooms
Keep an eye on the action from the supersize Terrace Suite, whose namesake outdoor space overlooks the lawn. It also has custard-coloured walls, Bedouin marriage beads above the bed, an airy living room and a bath tub. Families and groups can pile into a Music Lane Queen, each of which has two queen-size beds.
Poolside
There’s a sunken saltwater pool by the lawn, open to guests only between 7am and 10pm (6pm for children).
Packing tips
If you feel the only thing missing from your outfit is a colourful silk scarf, there’s a handy Hermès right next door – and the shops of South Congress await for further upping of trend levels. You’ll also be able to stockpile Texan-made goods and Bunkhouse hotel group merch right in the lobby’s boutique.
Also
The hotel hosts regular cultural and wellness events, from live music to yoga classes. Experiential art installations have included confessional booths where a resident artist will pen a song about your recent revelation.

Sustainability efforts
The hotel has been hewn from recycled cedar wood, every drop of rainwater that falls is harnessed and there’s a kitchen garden on-site. And in case you need a little encouragement, your room will have tokens that encourage eco-friendly choices.
