When it comes to luxury stays, Austin is setting the pace.
Six local hotels made Condé Nast Traveler’s list of the top 15 hotels in Texas, the most of any city in the state. From the storied halls of the Driskill to the modern calm of Hotel Saint Cecilia, the Texas capital’s mix of history, design and easygoing charm clearly resonates with travelers. Elsewhere in Texas, hotels in Dallas, San Antonio and Houston also earned spots on the list.
Each year, readers of Condé Nast Traveler cast their votes for the destinations and stays they can’t wait to revisit. This year’s Readers’ Choice Awards drew more than 757,000 responses, offering a snapshot of what makes a stay memorable—from attentive service to architecture that feels like part of the landscape.
