Whenever I stay at a Gaylord property, I feel like I'm getting to experience a phenomenon that could only exist in the present day. The imaginative Gaylord resorts remind me of the Pulitzer Prize winning novel 'Martin Dressler' by Steven Millhauser. The Gaylord Texan, like all their resorts, is a themed environment set inside a bio dome, temperature controlled and... More

Attended national meeting with attendees from all over country. Ease of all getting to the hotel good. Staff always helpful. Facility huge so a lot of walking. Hotel rooms a little worn and probably need refurbishing.

The Gaylord Texan is our "go to" place for a quick getaway. We always schedule spa services and enjoy being pampered at Relache Spa right in the hotel! The restaurants are great and most have a good wine & beer selection. The fireworks displays during the summer are fun to watch.

I just spent four days 5/13-5/16 at the Gaylord for a convention and came away impressed. I travel a lot and get to quite a few higher end hotels/resorts throughout the year. The place was absolutely beautiful and the staff was very attentative and friendly. I too was disappointed in only one thing - the bed. It was quite firm;... More

Stayed at the Texan for 2 nights on recent vacation trip to Dallas area. Property is a large conference center so as a leisure traveller be prepared for crazy conventioneers. Room was clean, well appointed and spacious. Texan isn't cheap so be prepared for costs like valet, resort fee, and hefty room rates but, the service yo receive is very... More

I stayed at the Gaylord Texan for 4 nights during a conference. I had no issues at check in, no lines, etc., but I did not get a King bed as requested. The room amenities were fine; I appreciated the mini fridge in the room and the 2 "free" bottles of water per day, which is quite a rarity. The... More

Stayed overnight at the Gaylord while attending a friend's wedding in Grapevine. As a Dallas local, we were excited to finally stay at a hotel we had heard so much about. What a let down. Yes the grounds are lovely and I'm sure the pool is great. Glass Cactus is awesome. I'm sure the spa is great as well. But... More

Stayed at this hotel for 1 night on our way to Las Vegas. The photos of the property looked awesome, the pools looked terrific, and some, not all, people on Trip Advisor gave the hotel stellar reviews. Despite those who wrote up unfavorable reviews we decided to give the hotel a try. Big mistake! The hotel is huge, think of... More

Let me first start off by saying how excited I was to attend this conference and for my work to approve me and 3 others to stay at this hotel that is well over our preferred travel rate. So I had high expectations going in, I mean it is a Gaylord. When we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles... More

Every time I (we) stay at the Gaylord, it is a treat. We've been there 3 times at have nothing but great things to say about this property. Is it on the pricey side, yes, but, we expect that at this type of property. The restaurants are very good, and the sports bar is excellent. Biggest dang TV I've seen.... More
