HI-Austin rests on the shores of Lady Bird Lake, providing a peaceful setting only minutes from downtown. Austin's music scene, funky shopping districts, and gorgeous natural beauty are all within arm's reach - and our hostel provides a comfortable and laid-back atmosphere. We'd love to meet you!

Hi-Austin rests on the shores of Lady Bird Lake, providing a peaceful setting only minutes from downtown Austin. Guests are only footsteps away from bus lines, the hike and bike trail, and the Colorado River. A 10 minute journey could take you to the middle of the Red River music district, to the stylish hub of South Congress, to the cool waters of Barton Springs Pool, or to the natural beauty of the Austin Greenbelt. Our fun and friendly staff would love to give you some ideas of what to do in town and directions on how to get there!
