Best Luxury Hotels In Dallas

Having earned cult status via the hit 1980s soap drama of the same name, Dallas has long been an iconic destination. Known for its oil, cowboys and the very public assassination of President John F. Kennedy, it’s one of the most famous cities on earth. However, art and science are major draws here, with well-respected galleries and museums open to visitors. It’s also a pretty glitzy place, with plenty of high-end spots to explore. If you’re planning a trip to the Texan metropolis and want to do it in style, these are the best places to stay.
