    Fabulous quiet getaway in the heart of the city. Absolutely wonderful breakfast served each morning. The carriage house was cute & comfortable. Would definitely recommend staying at Park Lane.

    I hosted a trip to Austin for a group of my closest gal pals to celebrate my 40th birthday. Best birthday present I could have given myself. We loved exploring Austin (who wouldn't?) but seem to agree that the highlight of the weekend was just hanging out at Park Lane or, as I liked to call it while we were there, "home". Waking up to a lovely breakfast by the pool, and smiles from two of the cutest dogs you can imagine, sets the mood for the day. Staying at Park Lane helped to create memories that will stay with us for the next 40 years.

    Peaceful tranquility in Austin

    My perfect B & B experience was realized this past April at The Park Lane Guest House! It was the ultimate relaxing, comfortable & interesting place I have visited. It is intimate,quiet & cozy, very small & private. Outside you are surrounded by beautiful, fragrant foliage. The house & cabins are tasteful & charming with an individuality reflecting the owners' hard work & eco- consciousness. No pretense here. With genuine love of their handiwork, the owners made me feel like family when I wanted to talk or ask a question, but are also so unobtrusive, I felt as if I was there by myself! I look forward to staying again one day. I'll have the best coffee & organic breakfast under the giant oak tree next to the charming little pool while listening to the birds & the huge mellow wind chime. I'll look forward to petting the two best behaved cute little dogs & to seeing the new chickens!

    Everything we hoped for!

    The website described everything perfectly so no surprises other than it's better in person, of course! Great location allowed us to walk to clubs and bars at night and yet amazingly quiet when we opened the cottage doors to hear the many variety of birds singing in the morning and early evening. Super comfortable, warmly decorated, and since we are foodies of sorts - the daily breakfast was outstanding - especially the omelet :) Great selection of organic coffee and teas, too! We enjoyed learning about Avatar and will continue that journey of exploration further. Thank you, Shakti, for a wonderful week.
