Such a beautiful atmosphere located in the heart of Austin. This historic building is a must see! The rooms are extremely comfortable. There was a love seat located at the foot of the bed that made sitting in a hotel room feel very roomy and comfortable. The staff are professional, knowledgeable, kind, and an absolute pleasure to interact with. There is not one bad thing I can say about this place. There are so many fun activities to participate in located within walking distance of the hotel.

We enjoyed High Tea at the Driskill Sunday afternoon, March 16. The experience was lovely. Tea is served in 3 courses, scone and lemon poppyseed cakes with fruit and oolong tea; savory with black tea and desserts with an herbal tea. Champagne or sparkling juice. Beautifully presented. Delicious. Yes, it is a “splurge.” One my daughter-in-law and I enjoyed!

The Driskill was a great location for the business meeting! Great Aesthetics with beautiful architecture and paintings. Very clean and staff was exceptional from the gentlemen that serve at the front door to the cleaning staff. The food was very good, and the Bar had great atmosphere! -Kerrie American Board of Obesity Medicine

Great experience hands down! Beautiful hotel, amazing food, and awesome staff! From the moment we arrived the staff was attentive and friendly. Providing amazing service from the valets to the front desk staff! A must try at the bar is the Lady Bird and quesadillas!

It is a beautiful, charming historic hotel but also has many amenities of a modern establishment. We stayed in the historic section. It was lovely. My husband and I have wanted to stay here for years and finally were able to this year. It did not disappoint!
