It seems the rest of the country is finally catching on to what we already know: Austin is a great place to be. The Capital City was recently named the No. 2 best summer travel destination in the U.S., meaning we don't even have to travel to enjoy ourselves this year. What better place to staycation this summer than Fairmont Austin?

Conveniently located in the city's central business district, the high-end hotel is within walking distance to many famed locations throughout downtown.

But a handy location isn't all that it offers — Fairmont Austin is redefining luxury with five delicious dining experiences, breathtaking panoramic views of Austin's growing cityscape, and the signature Fairmont Gold experience.

Your culinary tour begins with Garrison, the AAA Four Diamond award-winning modern American grill house that's dedicated to open flame; wafting smoke; and the highest quality meats, seafood, and local produce available.

Even more choices are available at Revue, a globally inspired food hall that features four distinct culinary worlds. The timeless cuisine of Italy, the epicurean and cultural complexities of Asia, the delicacies of the sea, and delicious treats from the artisanal pastry shop come together to create a vibrant and colorful dining experience for all.

The best place in the hotel to grab food on the go is Good Things, which features delicious snacks, house-made baked goods, pastries, and gourmet sandwiches to suit all needs.

Fulton was designed for those to sip and swirl craft cocktails, local beers, and wine, or indulge in light bites, all while enjoying daily live music.

Located on the seventh floor rooftop terrace, Rules & Regs offers a space for all visitors to enjoy the sweeping views of downtown Austin, as well as Latin-inspired cuisine and deliciously crafted cocktails.

However, as tempting as it sounds, you can't spend all your time eating and drinking. That's where the dedicated concierge staff comes in. Their team ensures that all guests' visits go exactly as planned, and take care of all needs prior to your arrival.

Once there, soak up the sun at two seasonally heated pools with submerged chaise lounging, 13 exclusive cabanas, and one grand cabana. Non-hotel guests can take a dip as well, because pool and spa bookings are now open for locals looking for a quick and easy getaway.

Speaking of the spa, get ready for experiences inspired by the Texas Hill Country, performed in nine treatment suites and a dedicated nail lounge. Fairmont Austin Spa also offers luxurious relaxation solariums that house mineral soaking pools, eucalyptus steam rooms, and dry heat saunas, all of which overlook the breathtaking Austin skyline.

Want to tone up while away? Fairmont Austin is home to a 2,800-square-foot state-of-the-art fitness center featuring Technogym and Peloton exercise equipment. As a proud sponsor of Texas Athletics, the hotel also offers two Hook 'em Horns packages for Longhorn fans who bleed burnt orange.
