The Best Hotels in Downtown Dallas

For those on a budget

  • The Canvas is by far the least expensive property on our list. It offers urban-chic rooms with retro furnishings, plus an infinity pool, restaurant and rooftop bar.

For a Swimming pool

  • Hotel Zaza boasts a resort style pool, with plenty of decking and loungers for lazy days.
  • The Joule has one of the most dramatic pools in town! One end is cantilevered out beyond the building, and as if that's not enough for the faint hearted, it also has a glass wall!

For a balcony

  • if you want to book a room with a private outdoor space, you'll have to blow the budget and book the Terrace Suite at The Adolphus.

Pet friendly

For a boutique stay

  • The Guild Victory Park offers a range of chic private apartments in a luxury city tower block. You get the best of both worlds here. Home-from-home accommodation, plus hotel style facilities including pool, cafe and sun terrace.
  • The Pittman is on the large side for what we'd usually call "boutique", but we're happy to include it here because of its industrial chic styling and bold contemporary art.
