Reviews for The Driskill
Great location
The Driskill is a wonderful historic hotel with a great location. Just steps to some great bars and entertainment. The Paramont is just a short walk and has its own history

Lovely old Hotel
Love the service. All of the staff was helpful and happy. The history and preservation of the old hotel is outstanding. We also spent some good time in the bar.

Great stay at the Driskell!
Amazing hotel in a great location. The rooms were incredibly nice, well stocked and the beds/bedding were really comfortable. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, even checking me in at 11:30am for which I was thankful after an early morning flight. We could walk to E. Sixth St and all the bars and restaurants and a quick few minute ride to shopping on South Congress St. Definitely recommend!

The Driskill October 2025
The Driskill was such an amazing stay! I did not realize its historic ambiance but it was truly breathtaking. I enjoyed how close to downtown and all its attractions. It was either within walking distance or a short drive. We brought our 2 dogs and were delivered a dog bed for our pouches that arrived within 20 minutes of checking in. The valet parking was very convenient and was very speedy with getting our vehicle. I would definitely stay here again and actually planning another trip to the Driskill!
