11 Most Romantic Getaways in Texas, from Desert Casitas to Historic Mansions

"Set inside the former Pearl Brewery along the less-touristy part of the River Walk, this Roman and Williams–designed hotel is all about the details. Look closely and you’ll see remnants of old machinery, repurposed as light fixtures and works of art. Macarons at turndown service and seersucker Dos Carolinas robes are a nice touch, too. At the on-site Sternewirth Bar, ask for the Three Emmas cocktail, along with the juicy backstory involving a lovers’ quarrel. When hunger strikes, some of the best restaurants in the city can be found just steps from the hotel’s front door, but for dinner and a show, make reservations in advance at Jazz, TX." - Tommie Ethington
