We paid almost $1000 for a two night stay for our wedding weekend to have the worst hotel experience we’ve ever had in all of our travels. We’ve stayed at places deemed less luxurious than this hotel and received way better service. The front staff (with the exception of one person during our checkout) was really bland and unwelcoming. When I walked up to the front desk to check in, they looked at me like I was bothering or inconveniencing them. They seemed annoyed to answer any of my questions. The hotel bar staff was rude and neglectful which is crazy because of how expensive their menu is. You would think you’d at least get service with a smile or maybe some manners. We waited 20 minutes at a dirty table for someone to finally notice us and walk over. The server didn’t even greet us in any way and instead asked if the dirty glasses and dishes were ours and when we said no he replied with “what do you want to drink?” And then started walking away from our table before we were even done with our order. Our food was awful. My pasta was burned and tasted old. My husbands food was cold and bland. The 1886 cafe downstairs by the lobby was also a huge disappointment. When I was ordering my drink I asked the barista a question about the menu and she literally turned her back to me while I was mid sentence without saying anything and completely ignored me and had another person take over. Don’t waste your money here. The architecture and history are the only redeeming qualities.

We loved this hotel, very elegant, lovely staff, the decor was everything you could want for an historic Texas hotel. The bar/restaurant was also great - good live music and lively atmosphere. The only complaint we had was that the pillows were too soft and not good quality and even upon request we were not able to exchange them for quality ones.

The Driskell Hotel is awesome. If you like bar hopping and live music, the location is good; however, the homeless population and high and the streets are dirty

When you immerse yourself into the environment and history of this place it is amazing. When you walk each level and investigate each levels unique books and paintings you can't help but to feel the history. Whether you feel the presence of a Ghost or not it's amazing!

The old hotel is lovely. The rooms desperately need decent coffee in them. The mini bar was empty, I didn’t want anything but that is beside the point. There were stains in the walls, so not super clean. It’s an old hotel so it smells old. The bar/lobby is lovely, the food is okay, nothing special for the price but good enough. The only thing that makes it over 3 stars is the lobby/ bar.

It’s a beautiful historical hotel. The rooms are clean and spacious. The location is great. Valet is convenient. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Menu choices could be better at the restaurant/bar. Along with the other hotels in a relatively safe area in Austin it’s pricey but at least it’s a beautiful place with visible security

The hotel was awesome because it’s an old building with lots of history. They definitely need to work on their front desk services. At one point we were standing there for five minutes without the lady even acknowledging we were there. No hello, no eye contact, no smile … nothing
