Proper Penthouse

The Proper Penthouse is known for sweeping Austin skyline views. It sits in Downtown Austin's Second Street District, so the outlook is a city-centre one, with the downtown skyline rather than a garden or water view.

The bedroom has one king bed with a pillowtop mattress, premium bedding and hypo-allergenic linens. The penthouse sleeps 2 guests, so it suits a couple or a solo traveller who wants plenty of space.

It measures 1,103 sq. ft. and is a one-bedroom layout with hardwood flooring and blackout drapes in the bedroom. Heating and air conditioning are climate-controlled.

The penthouse has two private bathrooms. There is a deep soaking bathtub and a separate transfer shower with a rainfall showerhead and a height-adjustable showerhead. Bathrobes, towels, designer toiletries, shampoo, soap and a hair dryer are provided, and a toothbrush and toothpaste are available on request.

With a single king bed and a maximum of 2 guests, it is best for couples or solo guests. Austin Proper Hotel welcomes children of all ages, but it leans adult-friendly rather than family-centric, and children 12 and above are charged as adults.
