Here is everything we know about Waldorf Astoria Texas Hill Country, including the interior designers who are bringing the vision to life, the agreement between operator and developer and what luxury travellers can expect from the first Waldorf Astoria in Texas (yee haw)…
Slated to open in 2027, Waldorf Astoria Texas Hill Country and Waldorf Astoria Residences Texas Hill Country will shelter 60 dedicated hotel keys, 87 Waldorf Astoria Residences, five food and beverage concepts, an 3,352-square-metre spa and fitness centre and two resort-style pools and more.

The news of the hotel comes after Hilton announced the signing of a branding and management agreement with Wine Country Hospitality Partners LLC.
“Waldorf Astoria Texas Hill Country’s signing marks a monumental milestone for Hilton and is integral to both our growth in the state, which represents Hilton’s largest hotel portfolio in the U.S., and Hilton luxury brands portfolio expansion across the Americas,” said Amy King, vice president, luxury & mixed-use development, Hilton. “Conrad Hilton’s legacy in the hotel business began in Texas more than 105 years ago, and working alongside incredible owners, we’re proud to deliver on Conrad’s vision as we introduce our distinguished luxury hotel and residential portfolio in the destination.”
The resort will be home to 87 Waldorf Astoria Residences. Designed with the same creative dialogue as the resort and celebrating the natural influences of the land, the residences will include single-story estates, villas and cottage-style Sunday homes ranging from three to five bedrooms, with custom options available. 50 of the Waldorf Astoria private residences are strategically placed along the edge of the 106-acre property, backing up to waterside views of Baron’s Creek and picturesque rolling hills.
