Boots on Forty is rooted in campus tradition and fueled by the rhythm of East Austin. We’re a spirited community of University of Texas families, parents, and alumni brought together by the milestones that shape the Forty Acres — from move-in day and orientation to game day weekends, graduation, and every visit in between.
Founded at the Hampton Inn & Home2 Suites Austin East 5th Street — just minutes from the University of Texas campus — our club offers more than just a place to stay. It’s a place to belong. With special touches for big weekends, thoughtful hospitality, and a front-row seat to East Austin’s best, Boots on Forty is your home base for making memories and staying connected.
Whether you’re cheering in the stands, walking campus with your student, or simply soaking it all in — you’re part of the Boots on Forty crew.
As the official home of Boots on Forty, the Hampton Inn & Home2 Suites Austin East 5th Street is more than just a hotel — it’s where connection, comfort, and community come together. Just minutes from the University of Texas campus and steps from East Austin’s creative core, it’s the ideal home base for every visit — from orientation and Family Weekend to game days and graduation.
Here, you’ll find the familiar warmth of Hilton hospitality with a local twist. From standout amenities to thoughtful spaces designed to gather, unwind, and celebrate, this is where the Boots on Forty experience begins.
