Pool is not heated, last time it was. That’s why we came back, disappointment ! Otherwise it was great 😊 Location is great for us . Restaurant needs to offer different kinds of food besides barbecue . Hotel needs to offer continental breakfast for free !
We encountered nothing but friendly staff from the valet guys to the check-in personnel to the restaurant staff! It was our first visit to The Beeman and we were pleasantly surprised at how beautiful the hotel was inside--kinda art-deco-like. Nice touches throughout. We especially liked the restaurant staff at breakfast-time. They were very friendly and attentive. The room was just right; however, I thought it was a little strange that there wasn't a closet or place to hang our clothes. Maybe it was the type of room we had or maybe I didn't look hard enough. It's not going to keep us from going back, but now I know. We recommend this hotel.
The room never got cooler than 72 degrees even over night. The room was very clean and the location is awesome…just across the street from the George Bush Presidential Library. The restaurant and bar were great and had live music on the weekend.
Great location for SMU activities. Easy self parking. Friendly staff. I'd booked 3 rooms for graduation. One room with no power for the night. No apologies or compensation offered just a "we're working on it" reply. I didn't make a fuss about it as it was a busy weekend but I didn't really feel valued as a guest. I would stay at the Beeman again. Not because they dazzled me but because it's convenient.
Very friendly staff, room was nice as this property was recently renovated. Room rate was good for the city. Whoever redid the room had great taste as the colors were very appealing and modern. Highly recommend this hotel
I have been staying at the Beeman (nee the Magnolia) for over a decade. This has been a consistently good, clean, convenient and reliably pleasant place to stay. The staff is uniformly friendly and helpful and the location is also extremely convenient for people visiting SMU.
Nice hotel and lovely room. Breakfast could be better and should last longer. Should have more food options. Restaurant should also have more options. Valet parking would be a good idea. But overall it was a good experience!
Ms. Perry and Shay were wonderful! The staff was always smiling and you never had a bad interaction with them. The location of the hotel is perfect! I was there for Commercial Lending School which was held across the street at SMU. It's also not far from down town Dallas and the all important Katy Ice House and Trail. Rooms are clean and very comfortable.
Throughout the duration of our stay at The Beeman Hotel the room we stayed in was without both power or air conditioning, often at the same time. Given that the hotel was fully booked, they were unable to relocate me for the weekend. One might assume that because of this they'd offer a refund for requiring that we continue our stay in a room that had the equivalent amenities of a cave (albeit a hot one) but they have, thus far, refused to refund us. It seems like the least you could have done given the circumstances.
Long check in line, room was never cleaned even though requested. Asked for extra towels and they sent sheets. Cheaper than the other hotels by SMU but now we are graduated and headed to other, nicer Dallas hotels.
