Book Last-Minute Hotel Deals in Austin

Austin is so weird. And you know what? We love it for that. It even has its own slogan challenging us to “Keep Austin Weird.” It’s about time a city embraced its quirkiness.

Come check out Austin, Texas, where conformity isn’t welcome. The stranger, the better. Between wild, decked-out karaoke rooms and year-round Christmas celebrations, it’s time to bag one of our last-minute hotel deals in Austin and get ready to shine on!

• Kooky Karaoke: Imagine standing with a microphone in your hand in a carnival-themed room with trippy tent stripes. No, this isn’t that recurring nightmare of yours, this is one of the themed karaoke rooms at The HighBall. Not scary enough for you? Pick the Midnight Manor room, designed like a spooky decaying house. Don’t worry; they serve plenty of liquid courage to get you stage ready for one of the eight private karaoke rooms.

• Fa La La La La: If you’re the weirdo who thinks it’s perfectly normal to blare holiday music in August, then you’ll fit right in at Lala’s Little Nugget. It’s Christmastime year-round at this cozy tavern, founded in 1972. Yes, reindeer, holly, twinkly lights, and all. Even if the weather outside isn’t frightful, venture on in for a cold one in this winter wonderland.

• Turn up the Volume: They don’t call it the Music Capital of the World for nothin’. With more than 250 music venues in town, you can practically catch any genre any night of the week. Score a deal on one of the hotels near Sixth Street in Austin and you’ll be just a hop, skip, and jump away from all the live music action.

• Summon the Bats: Channel your inner vampire as you watch millions of Mexican free-tailed bats charge from under the Congress Avenue Bridge each evening. This phenomenon is no secret in town, but something this strange? Shame on you if you don’t see if yourself. When it’s time to turn in, head to one of the hotels near downtown Austin—you just may find yourself counting bats instead of sheep tonight.

It’s weird. It’s wonderful. And it’s waiting for you. Shake off your inhibitions and be free to be you in this quirky town. Heck, share the adventure with Fido and stay at one of the pet-friendly hotels in Austin or score a Cali king all to yourself at one of the luxury hotels in Downtown Austin. Better yet, snag one our Hotwire Hot Rates. You just may score at 4-star hotel at a 2-star price!
