The Best Hotels to Book Near Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport

The historic Texan city of Grapevine has grown into one of the hippest towns near DFW – check it out from your base at aptly named Hotel Vin, the centerpiece of an impressive 38,000 square foot (3,500 sqm) development. It’s a Marriott Autograph Collection property, which means corporate-cool interiors just perfect for business and pleasure. Food is the focus – along with the three restaurants on-site, explore Harvest Hall: a European-style food hall on Main Street, cooking up global cuisine. You can be in Grapevine in 15 minutes on a TexRail ride from DFW.

Is Terminal D close enough to the airport for you? Actually, could you be any closer? Grand Hyatt DFW is the business for red-eye arrivals and early-morning takeoffs. Runway views, easy terminal access via the Skylink, and internationally inspired dishes at the hotel’s Grand Met take the stress out of your stay. All rooms are soundproof, including the Executive Suite, with its soaking tub in its spa-like granite setting. Sports fans take note – all this comfort and convenience is just a 20-minute taxi hop from AT&T Stadium.

A quick trip to Texas is effortless with the help of Hyatt Place DFW, located right on airport property. You’ll have no issues getting to and from the terminal in a trice. Rooms are all light, clean and unobtrusive: in a nutshell, cookie-cutter-modern. Waking up to a free breakfast is never a bad start to the morning and the convenient prepackaged bites at The Market will satisfy your munchies when the on-site bar closes. You can also grab a workout at the 24-hour gym or relax in the indoor pool.

It’s only 11 minutes from DFW – so near you could par-5 your way to this five-star retreat in the planned community of Las Colinas. All the Four Seasons-brand luxuries are present and correct. Expect cool, pale, plantation-house-feel rooms, suites and villas; rib-eye steaks big enough for two at in-house restaurant Law; and a knockout Well & Being Spa. Drop in for a tee time on their award-winning championship course. Get your handicap as low as possible with a second round on their member’s only Cottonwood Valley course. After all that you’ll be ready to raise a glass and celebrate at the hotel’s Outlaw Taproom.

Even if you’ve suffered a flight delay you’ll doubtless be in good time for your meeting at The Westin. This convention center hotel is not even 10 minutes from the airport by cab, giving you enough time to straighten your tie and look over your notes. When work has ended for the day, get down to real business in your club-level suite – all spaces are quality cocoons, decorated in sedate greys and pale woods. At some stage lose the tie and other attire at the outdoor pool – or lace up your walking shoes for a stroll around the waterfront trail.

Big Apple accommodations only a ten-minute cab ride from DFW? NYLO Las Colinas, part of Hilton’s Tapestry Collection, delivers New York City loft living deep in the Lone Star state. Live like a king or queen in the industrial chic skyline suite, complete with a semi-private balcony. Or check in to a cosy loft room – you won’t want to leave, unless it’s to stretch your limbs in the outdoor pool. Loft Kitchen & Bar downstairs will mix you a mean Manhattan to wash down a loaded plate of pub grub.

Take a 10-minute ride share from DFW’s runway across the highway to Aloft Dallas Euless – part of the Marriott stable, Aloft is aimed at modern young globetrotting travellers. Hence plush platform beds and walk-in showers that are a cut above the airport-accom competition. With looks to induce a yee-haw! this hotel is smack in the middle of a bustling shopping center, giving you instant access to retail therapy and a buffet-load of restaurants. You’re as good as shaking hands with Highway 21 here – so only a few miles from wet-and-wild fun at NRH20 Family Water Park and historic Grapevine.

A luxurious stay on Lake Carolyn is yours with just a 30-minute Orange Line ride (or speedy 10-minute cab hop) from DFW. Omni Las Colinas Hotel is a peaceful retreat just west of Dallas perfect for de-frazzling with a programme of full body spa treatments, private cabanas by the pool, and lakeside views that never get old. Marble bathrooms, oversized writing desks, and a fully-stocked refreshment center in your room will make even a business trip feel like a relaxing getaway.

It’s a straight shot from DFW to Texican Court – just 20 minutes aboard the Orange Line tram. Texican Court is a refined boutique hotel that’s just as photogenic on the outside as within – we love the dangling fire pit bowls with cool surrounding chairs. Live music, lawn games and other outdoor happenings fill the grounds all around, while a complimentary shuttle will get you within a five-mile radius – and free bicycle rentals will help you explore further. And when you’re hungry, the in-house Two Mules Cantina sends out delicious fajitas and enchiladas, to line your stomach for calling the shots at Salt Tequila Bar.
