Adolphus hotel- I came across this hotel when looking for a place to stay while attending the national honor choir here in Dallas. By default we ended up here as all the other major chains were booked. To my surprise, my late booking turned out to be just the right thing for us! We ended up in a huge corner room with two queen beds, enormous bathroom and huge closet with built ins. This is a really neat historic hotel from days gone by where who's who of the roaring twenties came to live it up. One thing they have here is free car service! They take you anywhere you want to go in a three mile radius. The car is a sleek black sedan. Real movie star service! We used out several times. We also tried room service, it was great. If you need ice, just call room service. It comes up immediately. No tip required. Everyone who works here gives 5-star service. Everyone we passed acknowledged us with a smile and pleasant greeting. Very nice job, guys! Workout facilities were new and nice. Starbucks on the corner or there is a coffee bar in the lobby. Free wifi!! There are restaurants onsite or you can venture out, lots and lots of dining choices are available. I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed the stay. Just so you know, the carpet is floral and dated as well as some of the furnishings but the bed is soooo comfortable and the tv is new so I didn't care about the things that seemed dated. There's a supposed haunting on the 19th floor. Didn't see or feel anything paranormal during our visit but we did go up and try to see the ghost of the jilted bride. :). Take a departure from the boring and try the Adolphus. It's a very special place. P.S. I'm hard to please.

A nice place to visit if you appreciate historic hotels. Front desk staff efficient, not overly friendly. Room service delicious and delivered in timely manner by a wonderful gentleman who took pride in his job. Valets very quick and professional. Visit during Christmas if you can. The decorations and afternoon tea are wonderful.

I was in Dallas for a Historic House Specialist class at Preservation Dallas on Swiss Avenue. The Adolphus puts the consumer first with impeccable service in an elegant and historical 100 plus year old building in Downtown Dallas. All staff were kind and seemed to be impeccably trained. OK, so is this the "Stepford" hotel!

We had an enormous suite in 19th floor. Larger than most people's apartments. High ceilings, huge floor-to-ceiling windows, comfortable king-sized bed, kitchen area, dining room, two baths, walk-in closet. It was impressive. The lobby downstairs was oh so very Palm Court at The Plaza in style. Very old school beautiful in a way that is timeless and elegant and forever in fashion. Staff was friendly, especially the housekeeping staff and the restaurant staff. But the ultimate highlight of the time there was our dinner in The French Room. It was absolutely perfect. The room is breathtaking and looks very much like the famous restaurant in Le Gare de Lyon in Paris, Le Tran Bleu...so Versallies in style. Carlos, our waiter has been there 18 years, he said. He was so sweet . Then came the food. Wow!!! Rack of lamb for my main course, and a light Grand Marinier souflee for dessert. Fabulous. This was the best meal we've had in Dallas, though we've eaten at celeb chefs restaurants each night. It's so great to know that this historic 10- year-old place still is as beautiful as when our parents would come here. We loved bringing our son here for a classic classy stay. Any negatives? The wall colors in our room were sort of 80s, but I hear they're renovating the rooms this summer. I just hope they don't change anything else about this hotel.
