Stepping into this ‘70s-coded bathroom is like stepping into sunshine, and we’re not mad about it.
At Austin, TX’s Hotel Magdalena, each monochrome, tile-heavy bathroom lets you pick a color mood and run with it. Think stormy blues, mossy greens or a buttery yellow that feels straight out of a disco daydream.
Tucked along Music Lane off of South Congress, the hotel nods to Austin’s roots with mid-century lines and a whole lot of history. Back in the day, this 14-acre spot was home to the Terrace Motor Hotel, buzzing in the ‘50s and ‘60s before Willie Nelson turned it into the Austin Opry House, a stage that saw legends like The Eagles and Muddy Waters roll through.
The bathrooms? A masterclass in color drenching. Spanish tile, sleek fixtures, earthy ceramics- it’s giving editorial meets spa.
