Austin Proper Hotel & Residences, a Member of Design Hotels
Austin, Texas, United States · Virtuoso · 2026 benefits
Situated in Downtown’s Second Street District, Austin Proper Hotel offers an artful immersion in lifestyle and well-being. Essentials include 238 rooms and suites, a focus on wellness with a full-service spa, recovery room, and state-of-the-art fitness center, a variety of atmospheric spaces for events, plus six unique settings for dining and drinks. Among them, the newest concept, Kappo Kappo, is an intimate French Japanese omakase experience. With emphasis on collaboration, the compelling vision of designer Kelly Wearstler meets the culinary creativity of Austin tastemaker McGuire Moorman Hospitality.
Given its whimsical interiors and culinary collabs, you wouldn’t expect Austin Proper to be anything less than one of a kind. Here, you’re free to indulge in sports massages and sound bath rituals, Tesla test drives, and small-batch tequilas paired with sunset views from the rooftop pool and restaurant. The hotel even has a rotating playlist on Spotify, featuring an eclectic mix of artists from The Black Keys to Giovanni Damico, befitting for a hotel located in the Live Music Capital of the World.
