For years in the shadow of Dallas, Fort Worth has lots to offer for visitors to Texas. Cowtown, as it’s long been called, has it all. Think exciting rodeos and innovative restaurants, fascinating museums, bustling nightlife and much more. Whether you’re moseying along or taking on the town at full horsepower, here are the best hotels for every traveler in Fort Worth, bookable with Culture Trip.

1. Hotel Otto, for a modern feel

Fort Worth is more than ten-gallon hats and plates of steak, as evidenced by the Hotel Otto’s modern micro-resort approach. The eight fully-furnished container bungalows, the pizza shop next door, and the plunge pool have a very cosmopolitan feel. You’ll have plenty of opportunities to get your boots dirty if you please; all you have to yell is “giddy up” and you’ll ride beside the Trinity River on horseback. Or, just watch the wannabe ranchers ride while you sip a Texas-sized margarita by the vegetable garden.

2. Staybridge Suites Fort Worth West, an IHG Hotel

Make the most of a quick trip to Cowtown at Staybridge Suites. This budget-friendly Fort Worth hotel helps keep the I-820 corralled while keeping you close to where you want to be. Fix breakfast in your suite’s full kitchen then drive across the street to Splash Dayz by the time your thirty-minute no-swim window is up. The on-site pool is a more convenient choice for a day with a visit to the Texas Civil War Museum on the itinerary.

3. Hotel Drover, Autograph Collection, for a pet-friendly stay

Hotel Drover says git along, little doggies – and they mean that literally. Your pooches are welcome to rest their boots beside the fireplace of your suite, looking cute as ever in their complimentary Wild Rag wrapped around their neck. They’ll be busy munching on biscuits, allowing you to unpack and arrange for a grooming session. For them, that is; you’ll find your pampering down at the resort-style pool. A private cabana – hair-free, of course – will keep your tail wagging.

5. Hotel Dryce, for local art

Tip your hat to Funkytown’s evolving Cultural District at Hotel Dryce. It’s a locally-owned hotel in Fort Worth and it’s obvious that local artists have had their hands all over the vibrant room designs. The Lobby Bar is just as colorful, though here you can literally taste the fruits of local labor. Kick your feet back with a craft beer brewed over yonder while gazing at cowtown photography you’d just as easily spot with your own eyes just outside.

6. Omni Fort Worth Hotel, for a mountain of brisket

Luxury travelers will already know the Omni name, but you’ll be treated to true Texan hospitality at Omni Fort Worth Hotel. Right in the heart of downtown, your lavish suite features fantastic amenities like a white noise machine, internet-ready workstations, and saddle blanket throws. Grab a plate of Texas brisket at Bob’s Steak & Chop House or knock back a few thumbs of hard liquor at Whiskey & Rye Bar. Looking for a softer touch? Starbucks coffee in the lobby and pedicures in the Mokara Spa are always available.

7. The Ashton Hotel, for leisurely afternoon teas

As Fort Worth’s sole historic boutique hotel, the Ashton offers an experience like no other. If the Texas heat has got you panting, you can quench your thirst with Saturday Afternoon Tea or nightly complimentary wine hour. Need a nap as well? Tucked up in their signature Ashton King-sized bed you’ll feel as if you’re floating on air. Should tea time and fine linens not be enough to make your stay, we recommend upgrading to their Spa Suite Room, which includes a two-person clawfoot bathtub for ultimate romantic relaxation.

8. The Worthington Renaissance Fort Worth Hotel, for slick service

The Worthington Renaissance Fort Worth Hotel is simply smooth in every way. You’ll glide from the BarWired cafe to the indoor pool, and slide off of your king-sized pillow top mattress over to your balcony to begin every morning with a breath of fresh air. Savor every rich bite of culinary delight at Toro Toro Pan-Latin Steakhouse, as internationally renowned Chef Richard Sandoval sends plates of vibrant flavors to your table. And, thankfully, you’ll be able to slip into the 24-hour fitness center at any time if you feel like you’ve indulged a little too much at the Lobby Lounge.

9. Dallas/Ft. Worth Marriott Hotel & Golf Club Champions Circle, for golfing holidays

Tee up on a Texas-sized golf course at Dallas/Fort Worth Marriott Hotel & Golf Club at Champions Circle. With floor-to-ceiling windows offering amazing views of the greens, you might not even notice the sleek modern decor around your suite. Before playing the 18-hole championship course, hit the breakfast buffet to add power to your swing. Reward yourself at Drivers for lunch – before heading back to the course to replay that tricky par 4.

10. Magnolia Lux Condos by Barsala, for a home from home

Live music, cozy cafes, and a restaurant for every taste are waiting for you on Magnolia Avenue, soon to become your home away from home.
