The Driskill - A historic 5-star landmark with grand ballrooms, live music, and award-winning dining in downtown Austin

Standing at the corner of 6th Street and Brazos Street since 1886, this 5-star Austin hotel features 189 rooms including 14 suites across its historic property. The Driskill offers 18000 square feet of event space, highlighted by a 2,500-square-foot ballroom with a vaulted trompe l'oeil dome and Texas flag mural. Executive Chef Mark Dayanandan leads the culinary program, which includes The Driskill Bar with nightly live music, and the Victorian-style 1886 Café & Bakery serving Texas comfort foods. Located steps from the Texas State Capitol and Convention Center, The Driskill maintains original architectural elements like marble floors, hand-painted columns, and a grand mezzanine spanning 5,600 square feet with two private balconies.

The Driskill: Pros

- Features historic design elements including Burled Walnut wainscoting from 1886 and original gold leaf mirrors - Live music performances seven nights per week in The Driskill Bar - Award-winning dining program recognized by Food & Wine magazine - Premium location on 6th Street within walking distance to major attractions

The Driskill: Cons

- Historic rooms in the original building are smaller than modern hotel standards - The bustling 6th Street entertainment district can be noisy during evenings

What our guests says about facilities

Hotel has comfortable rooms, premium services, and a prime downtown location

Really good Cuisine

The dining experience at 1886 Cafe was extraordinary! The cheese soup paired with the kale salad was bursting with flavor, and the outdoor patio seating added a good touch to our breakfast. I can't stop thinking about those chocolate croissants, the best I've ever had during my travels!

Great Fitness Space

I loved the small yet well-equipped fitness center. The equipment was modern and well-maintained, allowing me to enjoy my morning workout without feeling crowded. The atmosphere really motivated me to push myself during my routine!

Very nice Valet Service

The valet experience was fantastic! Our car was handled with care, and they went out of their way to retrieve it quickly whenever we needed it. They even helped us find a lost cord from our luggage, showing a level of service that exceeded my expectations.

Charming Room Decor

Our room at the hotel was beautifully decorated with a mix of modern amenities and historical charm. It was cozy, and the thoughtful touches in decor made it feel special. The ambience made our stay feel like a mini vacation within the city!
