My favorite hotel in Austin Texas is the Driskill Hotel on 6th Street. If you find yourself in downtown Austin and want a nice quiet bar just a few feet from the night time party mayhem of Sixth street, check out this place. You can see some more of my images of the Driskill Hotel (here).
A Wonderful evening at the Historic Driskill Hotel

My wife & I spent last night at the historic Driskill Hotel in Austin Texas. When Beverly & I married six years ago we spent our wedding night in one of theDriskill’s wonderful balcony rooms so I decided it would be a great way to spend our anniversary. I love old historic hotels. Those that have been following my blog may remember my post about the Boulderado Hotel in Boulder Colorado. Walking down the halls I easily transport myself into the lives of those that have walked those same hallways for so many decades. The Driskill is like walking into a giant old time machine. Every where you look the craftmanship & service have the polish & detail you rairly find these days. I need to make our reservation for next August.
