Great beds. Great service. Didn't get the stay long but while I was there it was a pleasant experience. Recommended. Great for relaxing after hectic business trips.

Historic and nice
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 12/08/07
I am frequent guest at Driskill. The service is very good and the elegant dining room is superb. Zagat talks about some rooms being the size of Texas while others are more like Rhode Island. That is very true description. The rooms are generally nice but quite small.

Old World meets New Age
By rrua@verizon.net, 09/08/07
Never spent the night but practically lived there for lunches over a 2 year period during which I lived in Austin (2004-2006). Delicious, affordable food and one of the classiest hotels in the USA ... the Old West meets European charm by way of East Coast sophistication - A functioning work of art!

Girls weekend out
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 04/21/07
2 of my friends and I went down to Austin for a girls night out. We stayed at the Driskill in the newer tower on the 12th floor. The room was great and the price wasn't bad for the luxury and eminities of the hotel. We didn't have one of the historic rooms on the first 3 floors but really liked out room. The hotel is perfectly located ...

not worth it
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 01/30/07
Great location and decent rooms but the service was horrible. We had multiple problems that took repeated attempts to be rectified and they didn't even apologize. They were very unprofessional. If I hadn't had paid a reduced rate I would've rated the value a 1. I don't recommend the hotel. THere are other hotels in the area.

Too much money $$$$$
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 08/23/06
The food was average at best including the Driskill Grill. They actually had a salad that was ring molded!! The Quail I had was raw and my fish entree was way overcooked. Is this the best that Austin has? I might as well have gone to a little greasy spoon down the street. At least they might have had a cleaner bathroom! At the bar, we met ...

I hasd the pleasure of staying the night there on a weekend. It had a chin droping lobby with the most beautiful ceilling and decorations warming yet luxurius. The beds were heavinly comfortable best rest ever away from home. Thanks Driskill Hotel.
Nice piece of Texas history. The bar and reastaruant are fantastic. Great place to stay for the weekend with significant other. Walk to sixth street bars as well.

Hit or Miss
By ltgoto, 06/26/06
I've stayed there 3 times over a 3-month period in 2006. Two times were in the old side of the building, which is, well, older than the newer side. The last time I stayed there pretty much solidified my not wanting to go back. My room had no shampoo or soap, something I didn't notice until I was already in the shower. When I unexpectedly ...

A pleasant staff and great hotel
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 06/12/06
The hotel has evething you want, but if you just want to get out, its walking distance to other establishments for entertainment and great food. Service is exceptional, and history is all around you.
