Modern Design & Happening
One MICHELIN Key · A very special stay
There’s no sense in denying that Austin has changed a lot in recent years, and while the advent of the Austin Proper Hotel will likely be an occasion for some grumbling about Californian imports, it’s a fine example of a city embracing change with open arms. While many Austin boutique hotels emphasize their down-home roots, the Proper Hotel is unapologetically urban, and architecturally, it’s as contemporary as they come. The design is by the same Kelly Wearstler who’s responsible for the mini-chain’s California installments, and the vibe, for all its style, isn’t shy about tending a bit upscale.
At the same time, the Austin Proper does reflect its setting, in its own way. Wearstler’s interiors are sensitive to the local context, and adapt to the colors, the patterns, and the materials of Texas, and make use of the work of local artists and artisans. There’s not a chance you’ll forget where you are — even without the views of Shoal Creek, Lady Bird Lake, and the Austin cityscape.
It’s early yet, but the Proper’s food and beverage situation seems well under control; McGuire Moorman Hospitality, known for several of Austin’s better restaurants, have a firm hand on the wheel here. Look for a Mediterranean grill and bar as well as a 30-seat cocktail bar that’s open to guests and residents.
