Given that this hotel has 50 elevators and a conference centre connected by a skybridge, its claim to be the biggest in Texas and among the 10 largest in the country seems more than believable. All guest rooms offer modem ports and large work tables, but if you want to venture out, the Chaparral Club offers an acclaimed New American menu with a stunning 38th- floor view and Player’s Bar entertains guests into the wee hours.

In a wonderful home nestled in the woods of White Rock Lake you’ll find the Courtyard on the Trail, noted for its privacy and natural surroundings, but still only a short hop to the business, art, entertainment and shopping areas of downtown and North Dallas. Decorated with elegant antique and modern furnishings, fine linens and art, the rooms and suite afford comfort, privacy and convenience.

Standard, well-equipped high-rise, off US 75 and just opposite North Park Centre (arguably the best mall in the city). Spacious guest rooms come stuffed to the gills with business paraphernalia of the in- room fax and PC data ports ilk and newly equipped with high-speed internet on several floors. Location is perhaps the best selling point, being handy both for airports, major freeways and the fun restaurants of Greenville Avenue.

One of Dallas’ most recent hotels nestles in the Park Cities, a fashionable, stylish enclave just north of downtown. Although each of the guest rooms is wired for business and the location is convenient to Love Field and downtown, the hotel is also walking distance from some of the best shopping in town.

Turn-of-the-century tycoon’s gift to the city: Adolphus Busch was famed for his plutocratic architecture and tasteful interiors. This contribution to Dallas dates from 1912. The lobby drawing room houses an important collection of art, including Flemish tapestries and prize Chinoiserie. Homesick Brits should catch the hotel’s famous High Tea, served in the lobby between 3pm and 5pm. Guest rooms are variations on the English country house theme – Queen Anne, Chippendale – with chintz galore and extras like voice-mail. Haute cuisine is served up by the French Room restaurant in heavyweight surroundings, though for less formal occasions the Bistro and the Rodeo Bar and Grill do the job. Perfectly placed for the Dallas Convention Centre and Neiman Marcus. If you can’t get in at the Turtle make sure you get in here.
