Most of the time, my travels are two weeks long, and at times I change hotels to gain a new experience and avoid complacency. After staying a week at the Hilton Anatole which was a great hotel and stay, I moved to the Hyatt Regency Downtown Dallas. It is also a large property with lots of towers and the sphere ball known as the Reunion Tower; it holds a restaurant and great views to the city (advanced reservations are needed). I did some reading on the property before hand, and learned that they only offer valet parking ($25.00 p/n), however, there is a separate self parking lot across the street for $10 p/night, which is were I intended to park, and parked. The day of my arrival, driving up to the hotel registration was crazy busy. It took about 20 minutes to reach the front, and I already knew in my head that I was checking out the very next day (vs. a week reservation). It felt like I was arriving at one of the Casino's in Las Vegas with multi people all dressed up and waiting for their cars, numerous sports teams arriving on high glucose, and all I wanted was peace and quiet. To my surprise, I stayed. The staff at the front desk was awesome! I am a Platinum loyal member with the Hyatt brand, and I ripped the benefits that day. I was upgraded to their newly upgraded towers, was given several vouchers at the Café, and my first dinner was complimentary. My room was in the 25th floor, contemporarily renovated with all the technology, and small features that made my stay, nice and quiet. My windows were equipped with powered shades overlooking the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge, which was illuminated each night by the sunsets. The smallest details were pleasant: a robe, censored nigh light, and room service, and the convenience of a full service Fed/Ex downstairs. I worked long hours, so had little time to explored. Although shopping was inevitable. I visited two locations: The Galleria Dallas and Highland Park Village (both within a twenty minute drive) -for a very upscale shopping, like Carolina Herrera, Escada, and Jimmy Choo.

This is by far the best hotel experience I have ever had. I travel a lot, all over the country and have to stay in a variety of 3-5 star hotels. I stayed at the Hyatt Regency in Dallas for the annual Mary Kay Seminar, and I was thoroughly impressed with their service, from check in, until check out. The hotel was inundated with hundreds, perhaps even a thousand women for the Seminar, and they handled the event and number of quests with impeccable and flawless service. Check in and check out was easy, and their concierge and bell service were like none other. Their employees were professional, personable, and cheerful, and went out of their way to make our experience pleasant. I think that the employees at the Hyatt were the most impressive aspect of the stay. If we asked for something, we got it immediately, and with a smile. The Hyatt is a gorgeous hotel, with lovely rooms. The rooms are spacious, the views of Dallas are beautiful. The dining at the hotel was fantastic, and the different restaurant servers were amazing as well. We had so much fun interacting with them. I hope they are all there when we return next year! The Hyatt is a wonderful place to stay, a great experience, and well worth the very reasonable rate we paid. We considered going out to downtown Dallas one night, but we realized we didn't need to: we had everything we needed right there at the Hyatt, in order to have a fun evening! Why leave?! Oh, and, the Wolfgang Puck rotating restaurant was an absolute must!!! Thank you Hyatt! We'll be back.
