The state of Texas is a world famous and sought after destination for holiday makers and business travellers alike offering accommodations that truly go beyond the call of duty annually, and it has been this way for hundreds of years, so as one would expect the capital of the state is of the same nature, Austin is the Texas' 4th largest city and one of the country's fast growing cities standing as the thirty fifth largest metro area. It was the Colorado River that first encouraged people to settle the land of Austin, and still this river is one of the thriving factors and reasons for tourists to see, as the river winds its way through the tree lines and city. The Luxury Austin Hotels benefit from this waterway in a number of ways, yet just the view of it from their suite is enough to have the guests book a return trip.
Before any European or any other travellers arrived to settle the land Native Americans of the three different tribes occupied the land. Yet it was the Spanish who first travelled through the area and made their mark on the land, setting up forts and villages from which exploration missions would depart. The fight of the Texas Revolution took place here, which was eventually won and named after a man who played a key part in gaining independence for the state, Stephen F. Austin. After 1845 the Republic of Texas was taken over by the country and Austin was named capital of the state.
The city skyline is fantastic and dramatic, with each building posing as pieces of artwork rather than places of commerce and business. The cityscape by night is something special, and is viewed across the Lady Bird Lake and is mirrored along the calm waters where the criss-cross of blue and green lights from the cityscape and starry skies repeat on the lake. Views of all this is seen and marvelled from the outside balconies of the private suites of the luxury Austin hotels.
Austin is a place rich in the arts and culture gaining the nickname "Live Music Capital of the World" with thanks to its annual festivals and markets that go on.
