Joe Louis has a fancy cocktail at the Driskill Hotel

While Austin is known for its extensive bar scene, sometimes you are in the mood for a more upscale vibe. The Driskill Hotel Bar can be described as elegant, sophisticated, modern, and delicious. It was even named a Top Ten hotel bar in 2019. 

After drinking a cool old-fashioned, take some time to explore the Driskill hotel itself. It has the charm of the nineteenth Century gilded age with marble floors, large columns, and an open rotunda with skylight. Just be alert for phantasagorical beings because there are rumors that the hotel is haunted.
