Description: The Driskill |
Austin, Texas, is home to numerous world-famous destinations, including the showplace of a cattle baron, the Driskill Hotel. Located seven miles from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, this historic 12-story hotel is convenient to the Texas State Capitol, Sixth Street District, the Governor's Mansion, Austin Convention Center and the University of Texas.
The hallmark of the Driskill Hotel is its luxury. The lobby exudes elegance with its three-story columns reaching toward a stained-glass dome ceiling canopying marble floors. Built in 1886, the Driskill is rich in history and serves as a landmark of Texas hospitality. Guests can take advantage of the full-service business center, or exercise in the fitness studio, complete with stretching room, massage tables and a sauna. Elegantly appointed conference and meeting facilities are available for everything from small gatherings to grand functions, and are wired with high-tech capabilities. The Driskill Grill offers on-site dining under the direction of Executive Chef David J. Bull and serves contemporary American cuisine in elegant surroundings. Old Texas-style decor is found in the 1886 Cafe & Bakery, which serves full breakfasts and light entrees throughout the day. Visitors can relax on cowhide couches while mingling in the Driskill Bar, which features an extensive wine list and native Texas brews, and live piano music is played nightly.
Palatial guestrooms and suites span from the Driskill's Traditional Wing, built in 1929 and featuring the colorful surroundings of the Texas Hill Country, to the Historic Wing's vaulted decorative ceilings, detailed woodwork and balconies. Both wings include original art, lavish draperies, and opulent beds featuring premium bedding and Frette Italian linens. Bathrooms are outfitted with black Brazilian marble tile, brass fixtures and bathrobes. Guests can enjoy nightly turndown service, minibars and expanded cable television, and complimentary amenities such as in-room coffee service, newspapers and high-speed Internet access are also available.
