Where To Staycation in Austin
Austin’s hospitality scene has been in the news, from the eight local hotels that kept their esteemed Michelin Keys, to the seven on Condé Nast’s readers choice list of the top 15 hotels in Texas. In today’s episode, host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by Austin Monthly's Editor-in-Chief Madeline Hollern to talk about the best staycations for couples, families, groups, and more. While everyone’s tired of the summer temps by now, look on the bright side! At least it’s still warm enough to sit by a pool or river. We’ve got some of our favorites for that, too. This episode originally aired on June 3.
