A hotel that's a work of art, and vice versa, the Austin features parlors done in tasteful blue/green and cranberry/ochre accents, a welcoming hearth and local art on the walls. Four comfy rooms can be enhanced by also renting one of the adjoining parlors. Convenient to two lovely parks: Edgewood and West Rock Ridge State Park.
