Favorite Hotels in Dallas

Whether you are visiting or planning a staycation, there are so many unique, historical and high-end hotels in Dallas! I have listed my favorite hotels in Dallas to help you decide between all the great options. Be sure to read my Favorite Restaurants in Dallas and Favorite Places to Shop in Dallas to plan your stay! xoxo

The Adolphus – We stayed here after our wedding and loved everything about this hotel. The Adolphus originally opened in 1912 and has an incredible history, including a visit from Queen Elizabeth in 1991 (her portrait is in the lobby). The hotel has had many renovations over the years, which includes a recent remodel to the main entrance. The rooftop pool, spa, and the drawing-room (photo above) were my favorite parts of the hotel. Both City Hall Bistro and The French Room made my list of Favorite Restaurants in Dallas and are located in the Adolphus. The Adolphus is owned by Marriott if you would like to use Marriott Rewards.

The Statler – I must have a soft spot for historic hotels. The Statler opened in 1956 and played a large role in establishing downtown Dallas as a business hub. In 2015 the hotel reopened after renovations but never lost the 1956 charm (this Insta was from the opening). Every room in the hotel has a unique mid-century feel, including the rooftop pool with a great view of downtown.  Even if you do not stay at the hotel, be sure to stop in Overeasy for brunch, Fine China for dinner, or Bourbon & Banter for the speakeasy vibe. The Statler is owned by Hilton if you would like to use Hilton Honors.

The Joule – The building itself was built in the 1920s and is one of only two gothic high-rises in the Dallas skyline. Once through the Main Street gold doors, the hotel is much more modern. Art is a primary focus throughout the entire hotel and some rooms even have the perfect view of The Eyeball. The rooms, spa, and restaurants create the perfect experience. If you do not stay at The Joule, enjoy lunch at CBD Provisions, dinner at Americano, or the speakeasy vibe of Midnight Rambler.

Rosewood Mansion on Turtle Creek – Originally built in the 1920s as a private residence, this hotel still carries a sense of exclusive elegance. The rooms, restaurant, spa, and pool are all well maintained but the decor does give the hotel an older feel. The restaurant at the Mansion also made my list of Favorite Restaurants in Dallas.

Hotel Crescent Court – Sophisticated and modern are the perfect words to describe the Crescent. Every detail is perfectly thought out from the amenities in the rooms to the spa and rooftop pool. The space is perfect for hosting an event or wedding. Fine dining and retail stores surround the hotel within walking distance.

W Dallas – Perfect location if you plan to attend a sporting event or concert at the American Airlines Center. The W is a classic high-end hotel with a central location in the Harwood District. The rooms, spa, bars, and rooftop pool are all elegantly modern. The Harwood District is full of restaurants a short Uber or walk away. The W is owned by Marriot if you would like to use Marriot Rewards.

Omni Dallas – The 23-story building is one of the newer light additions to the Dallas skyline. This hotel is great mainly for its location, kid-friendly atmosphere, and ability to accommodate larger groups. The rooms are updated, the rooftop pool is open year-round (heated) and the spa has the perfect view of downtown.
