Driskill Holidays

The holidays are a very special time for us all, and here at The Driskill many of our traditions date back to the opening of our hotel in 1886. The Driskill is proud to keep our most cherished traditions alive. We invite you to celebrate seasons of merriment and good cheer at Austin's most iconic hotel. Mark your calendars for the following holiday celebrations, and may our #DriskillTraditions continue to be yours!

Cookies for Caring- On Sale this Fall for purchase

In 1969 volunteers organized a bake sale to save the hotel from demolition, and because of their efforts, the hotel is still standing today. Cookies for Caring continues the tradition of The Driskill’s beloved baked sales, and raises funds for the Austin American-Statesman’s Season for Caring. All profits will go to Austin American-Statesman Season for Caring families.
