Austin Proper Hotel
Unapologetically urban. California cool with a Texas soul. Think earthy tones, distressed hardwoods, locally sourced stone, and a serious art curation program. The energy is social and design-forward — not stuffy, but definitely upscale.
Book Kappo Kappo well in advance — it's a very small counter and one of the best omakase experiences in Texas
Why It Matters
2025 Michelin Key award winner. 2026 Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star. On Condé Nast Traveler's Readers' Choice and Hot List. The only Austin hotel with a Kelly Wearstler interior, an on-site French-Japanese omakase counter, and a LEED Gold-certified building. Also a member of Marriott Bonvoy's Design Hotels program.
Austin Proper sits at the base of a 32-story mixed-use tower in the 2nd Street District, one block from Lady Bird Lake. The hotel occupies the first 11 floors; above that are private multi-million-dollar condos. Kelly Wearstler designed every inch of it, from the Arts & Crafts-inspired wallcoverings in the rooms to Goldie's pink marble bar tucked in the lobby. The food and beverage program is run by local Austin institution McGuire Moorman Lambert Hospitality, and the lineup — five distinct dining concepts — punches well above what most downtown hotels bother to attempt.
