Canvas Hotel Dallas
The room was very comfortable and clean! I also really enjoyed that they have a pool table in the lobby and a great view from the rooftop! I also had a nicely made latte from the lobby bar. Oh! & parking is free!

Magnolia Hotel Dallas Downtown
This was such a lovely hotel! So close to a lot of things walking distance. Lots of restaurants nearby. The only downside was no onsite parking but there are parking garages nearby

The Westin Dallas Park Central
DoubleTree by Hilton Dallas - Campbell Centre
When we went, outside of the hotel was being renovated. Free but limited parking at night. Our shower was leaking. However, the room clean, bed was comfy, and the view was amazing. Staff was nice. Despite some hiccups, we would stay here again.
