The Bar/Lounge at Le Meridien Dallas by the Galleria

"Le Méridien Restaurant offers breakfast, lunch and dinner, while the lobby bar serves up contemporary food options to pair with cocktails and local beers"

""Sexy", "modern" decor -- neutral tones with pops of bold color -- pleases partisans of this Far North Dallas retreat offering varying "comfortable" rooms and suites, each outfitted with 42-inch flat-screens and such high-tech perks as iPod docking stations and jacks that allow you to plug your laptop into the TV; loyalists also laud "better-than-expected" service, the "relaxing", open-concept bar/restaurant/lobby area and a "great" location opposite Galleria Mall"

"Magenta hues, neon illumination, bean bag-esque and midcentury-inspired appointments converge with startling results in the lobby lounge"
