Ladies, or Gents, what hotels do you recommend? or even ... What area of DFW do you suggest I should find a place to stay? I noticed many ladies only travel so far or in a certain area, and I do not know Dallas all that well.

I would much appreciate any feedback you can give me.

Thanks!

DOWNTOWN/UPTOWN:

The W Hotel: Right next to American Airlines center and House of Blues...attending a Mavs or Stars game, or a hot concert is just a step away
ZaZa: Great vibe...check out the "Magnificent 7" their extra special suites each with their own theme..
Ritz: enough said
Stoneleigh: I have never stayed, but it's a local Favorite...
The Joule: Fabulous boutique hotel located in downtown...has award winning Charlie Palmers, Pm Lounge, and a pool that juts out from the building


GALLERIA:

Le Meridien: Newly remodeled, beautiful spacious rooms
Westin Galleria: Conveniently attached to the Galleria, making dining as well as shopping extremely convenient

OTHER

Four Seasons Las Colinas: Beautiful Resort & Spa...host of the PGA Byron Nelson NOTE: Extra caution if you are inviting a lady to visit you...the area is known to give girls a hard time....if you are concerned your guest will not be 'appropriate' for the hotel, you may want to stay elsewhere...

The Gaylord: Great place if you are an attendant at the nearby convention, or, want to stay close to the airport without renting a car. Neat place to be during the holidays....check out their ICE exhibit..

Westin Stonebriar: Beautiful Resort and spa should your travels take you to the Frisco area

provide the correct info for you.

How can anyone make valid recommendations without knowing your tastes, your budget, why you are in town (like if being convenient for your purposes might dictate where in town you stay)

If your only concern is if some ladies will refuse your area, wouldn't it be more logical to pick the lady or ladies and see where THEY travel (ask them directly) .. or if they offer incall if you will travel to them.

Payton has recommended some fancier places... some I personally like more than others.   Hotels are almost irrelevant unless you like great suites  or some specific requirement.. a great spa or ?...

Some a-ok places that are probably less expensive: ALOFT (the discount part of the JOULE and W chaiin)
and some really cool remodels have been instigated at Hilton Anatole, some Marriott coutyards, Renaissance (part of the marriott chain). and those can be found all over town and in the suburbs like addison and plano.

Oh.. and the boutique hotel remodeled form an old 1940's motor inn THE hotel BELMONT.  Great view of the city .. small with rooms varying in price from the low $100's to ? $500 maybe.  It sits atop a man made hill. The best room has a large outdoor patio  with a hottub and lovely view of the Dallas skyline. Funky little cool place that is for some and not for others.  

As for ladies getting 'hassled' going into ANY hotel.. !!! Gosh... how can anyone look or act so inappropriate a hotel questions them?  Hard for me to imagine...almost inconceivable.  A hotel is a service industry.  First of all they would/should be catering to their patrons and welcoming the patrons guests.     I'd think the lady would have to be some type of street person akin to a crack  vagrant to be questioned and/or maybe soliciting guests hanging at the bar or something very amiss! yikes.  If a person is in the realm of normal I can't imagine them having a problem.  Hotels and restaurants welcome me with open arms.. practically bowing and begging me to return.  ...   ha ha
I"d really question the circumstances of anyone who has 'problems' entering any hotel.

Thanks for the recommendations!  I was just curious where to start looking. It would seem to me that the Galleria area is a very nice place, and seems to be preferred by many. I appreciate it.

Thanks again!

Well Alea, The Four Seasons is located in Irving, an area ALOT of gals have had problems in. And, ALOT of ladies have had problems at the Four Seasons, I NOT being one of them as I am a regular patron of their spa, and that I do not resemble a 'crack vagrant'. And yes, you would be suprised at the lack of tact and common sense that some ladies do have. In fact, it was at the Four Seasons where I watched a gal that was valeting in the car right in front of me step out of her minivan in a extremely innappropriate dress, stripper shoes, AND.....proceded to have the valet and doorman help her as she struggled to carry a massage table from the back of her van, and into the lobby....of course, the best part was when her purse fell, and all her toys spilled onto the pavement....I'm so glad she was so inappropriate, bc geez was I worrried that I may be drawing unnecessary attention !! Alea, I'm so glad you have been around the hotel circuit long enough to be welcomed with open arms

You must also check out the Adolphus Hotel in Dallas. I find it quaint and comfortable. Can be expensive and depending on what room you get, great views.
