The painted beams and arched windows of a 1920s Moorish Revival temple still run the show here, even with chandeliers and patterned textiles layered on top. Hotel 1928 is a 33-room boutique hotel on Washington Avenue with a café, two restaurants, a library, and sitting rooms that reward wandering. Ten minutes from the Silos, it draws the kind of guests who appreciate a building with a past and a decent place to sit in it.

A 39-room boutique hotel on three acres above Brushy Creek in Round Rock, north of Austin, where century-old live oaks do most of the decorating. The original farmhouse on the property still stands and now holds the bar, which is the kind of detail that earns a place its character without trying. The surrounding Austin sprawl exists, technically, but you can't really tell from the grounds.
