Frommer's "An unexpected delight in the Park Cities area, right next to the SMU campus, this terrifically stylish, discreet boutique hotel opened in the spring of 2006." Full review
BlackBook "Rooms exude modern charm while sticking to mid-century motif. Dark chocolates and cremes oppose emphasis on illumination, in a good way."
Zagat "Across from SMU in University Park, this branch of the Kimpton boutique hotel chain offers modern, wired quarters with flat-screen TVs and iHome docking stations (and yoga mats!)."

Frommer's "Built in 1912 by the Missouri beer baron Adolphus Busch, this hotel is the grande dame of Dallas hotels." Full review
Concierge "The hotel bar is old and cozy, so if you can stomach the forced formality of the place as a whole, it's a well-located downtown choice."

Rough Guide "Stunning historic downtown hotel, decorated with antiques. Said to be the most beautiful building west of Venice, Italy, when it was built in 1912, it’s a glamorous place to stay."
Michelin Guide "This 100-year-old creation of unabashed Baroque flamboyance and period furniture, with lacquered chinoiserie, tapestries, and chandeliers, was built by a Dallas beer baron."
Gayot "This hotel has been deemed "the most beautiful building west of Venice." It is truly deserving of the compliments it receives."
BlackBook "Anheuser Busch founder Adolphus Busch started his namesake hotel in Downtown Dallas to be the epoch of luxe in 1912."

""Steeped in history", this "posh" circa-1912 Financial District "landmark" built (and named for) a beer baron is "first class all the way" thanks to "classically elegant" quarters."
