Fodor's Expert Review Austin Proper

600 W. 2nd St., Austin, Texas, 78701, USA Fodor's Choice

This Second Street hotel is the perfect luxury counterpart to the surrounding chichi retail district. The 244-room hotel put a heavy emphasis on design, and it shows. Interiors are bold and swanky, with a more approachable, but equally luxurious Four Seasons style. The acclaimed local McGuire Moorman Hospitality group executed the on-site dining options, including the excellent Peacock Mediterranean Grill and a poolside restaurant, La Piscina. The spa, fitness center with Peloton bikes and Pilates machines, and in-room amenities take the glamour over the finish line.
