About Us

A little piece of South Austin, waiting for you

Since 1971, Motel 71 has been the quiet counterpoint to Austin's fast pace. We're not a boutique hotel with a mood board—we're a real place for real travelers. Clean rooms, honest prices, and a front desk that remembers your name.

Located right on the border of South Austin, we're close enough to the action on South Congress and downtown, but far enough away to sleep through the night. No noise complaints. No surprises.
