Menu was great, loved the salmon dinner. However, no true evening dining space except eating in the bar area. We didn't mind that, but others may find that uncomfortable. Staff was terrific, very helpful. Live music Friday and Saturday in the bar. Our room was small but charming, good beds, small bathroom sink area, but did have a separate shower/toilet area. Beautiful old world hotel with European flair. We understand a major renovation is planned in the near future. Highly recommend.

Location didn't have much to offer. The area near the hotel used to be full of shops and live music venues. 6th street is pretty bad now.

Housekeeping staff , valet parking staff were exceptional & helpful overall experience is unforgettable, overall service was impressive , our experience at the hotel definitely exceeded our expectations. Thanks to alwana & all the staff at the hotel you were amazing.

King Deluxe Room was well worth the money. Beautifully appointed, well laid out, comfortable, sofa a nice touch, comfortable bed, baths was perfect size with an ante-room with a second sink and coffeebar. Spacious, elegant, comfortable, and the restaurants on the property were absolutely superb. And the nicest small touches - a great white oise machine that buffered any sounds from adjoining rooms. The Cafe and Bakery on premises was fabulous, as was the 1886 Restaurant.

Nothing. It was absolutely wonderful.

The lobby décor was set up for Xmas with a huge, highly decorated tree in the center, under an extremely ornate ceiling sconce. Historic suite had nice foyer room, bedroom, and bath. All quite elegant.

A little confusion at the hotel side entrance to the 1886 cafe: a long line for full meal prep and a shorter, faster moving line for coffee/grab-and-go, The verbiage on the entrance sign was very unclear about this but it tried.

The bar area was great, felt like an old English bar. Location is right on 6th street, lots around you, plenty of bars and restaurants. the Restaurant at the hotel had a delicious breakfast and lot of pastries, although the line-up to order was ridiculously long and only one person serving. The historical king room was lovely, a good size, huge bed.

The elevator to the historical side was incredibly slow, sometimes waiting 5-6mins for it.

The location of the hotel was perfect, in the heart of much to see. We stayed in the historical section of the hotel and the room was very spacious. The shower was simply amazing and the bed was comfy. I love a quiet hotel and heard zero outside noise or noise from other guests. It was a perfect stay.

I can't find anything to not like.

The staff was very responsive. We appreciate the provision of a small fridge as we had several nights stay, and coffee and water were provided daily. The facilities are top notch and beautiful. The Christmas tree and decorations were impressive and the smell of fir trees greeted you when you entered, and there was lovely music daily.

Everything was amazing, a true five star historic hotel. The service at the front counter was exceptional as was all the others. The bar was beautiful and had great drinks and food. The cafe had good food and coffee. For the price I felt the room was very small but that may be due to the age of the hotel. Very expensive to park a car here at about $60 a night, but the valets were great.

The ambience and location of the hotel was fantastic. Room was comfortable and.clean.

The plug on the basin was faulty but other than that everything was good.

The room had everything I wanted. It was quite, cool and had a cough in addition to a King sized bed. Small fridge and a bath/shower. It was clean and comfortable. Was a great way to finish a trip to Texas and was in a great location. would recommend the hotel. The hotel has a lot of history and so often this equates to dusty and worn out but definitely not the case with the Driskill.

Parking when returning in the evening. The valet service is on a one way street that you have to go the wrong way when 6th street is closed at night. Circled the district a lot until gave up to head the wrong way down a one way street. THe valet team however were fabulous.
