The Spotlight on The Driskill in The Unbound Collection by Hyatt

Historic Elegance Steps from Austin’s Music Scene

A timeless blend of Southern charm and Texas luxury, The Driskill in The Unbound Collection by Hyatt is perfectly situated at the corner of 6th Street and Brazos Street—right in the heart of downtown Austin. This iconic hotel has been hosting memorable stays for over a century, with 189 elegant guestrooms (including 14 spacious suites), classic architecture, and a warm, welcoming vibe that makes it more than just a place to sleep—it’s a part of the Austin story.

Why Concert-goers love it

If you're heading to a show downtown, The Driskill puts you within walking distance of some of Austin’s most legendary live music venues. After the encore, you’ll appreciate the hotel’s peaceful, well-insulated rooms—a welcome retreat from the energy of 6th Street. With a 4:00 PM check-in and an 11:00 AM check-out, there’s flexibility to arrive after a long drive or sleep in post-show. The central location also means easy access to rideshares and late-night eats.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends ready for a live music weekend
  • Solo travelers catching that bucket-list artist
  • Couples looking to pair a show with a romantic stay
  • Fans needing a quiet, luxe place to recover after dancing all night
  • Budget-conscious fans who want to splurge for a special occasion

Food and Drink Options

From late-night bites to refined dining, The Driskill has you covered. Grab a cocktail and a Texas-inspired dish at The Driskill Bar, or enjoy refined cuisine at the on-site Driskill Grill. While room service isn’t 24/7, the location makes it easy to walk to nearby eateries open late into the night. Breakfast is available for those who need fuel after a long night of music.

Nightlife Options

Located on the legendary 6th Street, you're surrounded by dozens of bars, music clubs, and lounges. Whether you're heading out to catch another set or just want to chill at the on-site bar with whiskey and live piano, The Driskill makes it easy to keep the night going—or wind it down in style.

What People Say

Guests rave about the hotel’s rich history and stunning interior, calling it a “beautiful, historic gem” and a “must-stay in Austin.” Reviewers often mention the friendly, attentive staff, the unbeatable location for nightlife, and the classy yet cozy atmosphere. Many also highlight the comfortable beds—key for recovering after a concert.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the hotel’s historic character means fewer modern upgrades in the rooms, and occasional street noise can filter in from 6th Street—though many find this part of the charm. If you're a light sleeper, pack earplugs or request an interior-facing room.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers looking for style, location, and a touch of history, The Driskill brings classic Austin charm just steps from the city's top music venues.

Lovely place. Would love to...

Liked: We were in a historic suite that was spacious and comfortable. It was quiet and the location was spectacular.
Disliked: The hotel is going through renovations so during our stay there were some issues with parts of the building being closed off. Unfortunately there a a persistent dank musty odor through the hotel.

Hoping for a 5star experience...

Liked: What I could see of the hotel was lovely, historic and quite well maintained. The bed was very comfortable and the room "a historic king" was well designed.The domestic staff were very helpful, knowledgeable and good at their job.
Disliked: The staff on the main floor while we were there were pairs of young girls who didn't seem at all interested in serving an elder, Englishwoman. I booked the hotel as a birthday treat for my partner, I asked if it could be as special as possible. Our room 427, was at the back of the hotel, about 8 feet from a brick building with a window that was so filthy that you could barely see the empty building during the day, only when its' lights were on during the night. No-one had looked at my booking and chosen my room type that had an outside window or was special. We also wanted to book dinner in the restaurant. We were told the whole mezzanine floor was closed for building work. This wasn't on the website at all when I booked. We went out to dinner instead to Gina's (excellent place). We were given two bottles of beer as a courtesy gesture to make up for the restaurant not being available, except when we got to our room with no view there wasn't a bottle opener. The maid got us one and sorted out other things in the room. Breakfast was disappointing, plastic cups and a limited menu, the food was good but we had to go up to the bar and order then display our numbered wooden spoon so the waitress knew where to bring the food. When we checked out we were charged for extras hat we didn't have, when I told the pair of girls on reception that I was disappointed with the room she said that there wasn't a view from the hotel as it was only 5 stories high. Surely the historic buildings outside the hotel, or even the sunshine would have made our stay more special. She suggested that if I wanted a better stay I come back after October when the building work should be finished. I think the desk staff could do with more training.

Elegant evening at The Driskill....

Liked: Room was fabulous with great view, comfortable bed, elegant appointments, small details including the Driskill D on the bed. The food in the cafe and in the evening restaurant was fabulous. Service outstanding. I could not get over how great everything was. I loved staying at The Driskill. It was an experience -not a room rental for the night.
Disliked: Nothing. Everything was superlative.
