Pros: Gorgeous hotel with so much history and character! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, the bed amazingly comfortable. Food from the 1866 Cafe (onsite) provided the best coffee and breakfast of my life!
Cons: $38 per night valet seems a bit excessive.

Pleasant | 3 out of 5
BY: Verified Hotel Guest
Pros: It's an old hotel so it has great character and decor.
Cons: THE SMELL. It's not unpleasant, it just smells old. Like your grandmother's house that was built in the '40's smell. It's just weird.

Wonderful | 4.5 out of 5
BY: Gail
Pros: The public spaces - entry, restaurant/bar and spacious lobby are an elegant tribute to the early 20th Century with its beautiful dark paneling, stained glass and marble floors. And the hotel is well located for enjoying a night in downtown Austin.
Cons: The staff did not seem to be communicating well with each other. Our room was not ready when we checked in, so we stored our luggage with the bellman. It took several calls over the next hour, after getting access to our room,to get the luggage delivered

Pros: Great character! For as old as the Driskill is it has been very well maintained through the years. It's a beautiful hotel. Very close to shops, bars and restaurants. If I am ever in Austin again I will be staying there again!
Cons: The elevators are kinda old and scary but I also have a huge fear of elevators so I might be being bias :-)
