Area & Attractions - Fun Things to Do in Austin - Austin is many things: cutting-edge live music; the seat of Texas government; a thriving foodie landscape; an outdoor adventurer’s dream town; home to exotic wildlife ranging from North America’s largest urban colony of Mexican free-tailed bats to nomadic herds of UT Austin students usually seen foraging for food or a good time. However you choose to describe it, Austin is unlike anywhere else in the world, except Austin, of course. At the epicenter of it all, near the Austin Convention Center, the University of Texas campus and the Austin capitol building, you’ll find W Austin Hotel. The location in the vibrant 2nd Street District gives you a front-row seat to the legendary Austin City Limits music venue, the annual South by Southwest music festival and the roughly 250 nightclubs, theaters and concert arenas that make up the “Live Music Capital of the World.”
When you want to clear your head or work up a sweat, the city has plenty of places that will put you through your paces. Kayak or swim in Lady Bird Johnson Lake, then dry off and hit the Hike and Bike Trail that runs along the shore. Set sail on Lake Travis and find out why it’s called the “Crown Jewel” of the Central Texas Highland Lakes. Get your daily lap swim in at Barton Springs Pool at Zilker Park, which is where you’ll also find the Botanical Gardens, Science & Nature Center, a miniature train and a disc golf course.When it comes to shopping, dining and nightlife the 2nd District neighborhood is the first place guests and Austin locals go. Head in any direction from the hotel to check out eclectic, almost entirely locally owned shops, restaurants and clubs. Venture a little further to the Warehouse District or SoCo and it’ll be easy to see why Austin’s music, dining and socializing scene is one of the most diverse in the country.
