From the creative pulse of the Dallas Arts District to the vibrant energy of Uptown, the city invites art and design lovers to make every moment a cultural discovery. This curated guide showcases stays that offer immersive design, museum-caliber collections, and walkable access to the city’s most inspiring neighborhoods.
Experience the Arts District
Stay in the heart of the Dallas Arts District, where every hallway and guest space at HALL Arts Hotel Dallas, Curio Collection by Hilton is a canvas for contemporary creativity. The hotel’s curated collection features works by local and international artists, making each floor a gallery experience. Step outside and you’re moments from the Dallas Museum of Art, the Nasher Sculpture Center, and world-class performance venues. Begin your evening with a pre-show cocktail at the hotel’s lounge, browse the art on display, then take a short walk to a concert or ballet. Here, design-forward hospitality meets cultural immersion, putting you at the center of Dallas’ creative scene.
A resort-scale art collection and pool
Hilton Anatole brings resort-style energy to central Dallas with a renowned art collection and the JadeWaters Resort Pool Complex. Wander through public spaces and discover sculptures, paintings, and artifacts that reflect the city’s global connections and creative spirit. Families and art lovers alike can spend the day at JadeWaters, where winding pools, slides, and cabanas turn summer into a celebration. The hotel’s Market Center location means you’re minutes from the Dallas Arts District, Klyde Warren Park, and downtown attractions. Plan a stay that blends poolside relaxation with artful exploration, all anchored by skyline views and easy access to Dallas’ cultural core.
Retro-modern downtown
Step into The Statler Dallas, Curio Collection by Hilton, where mid-century design meets modern amenities in a walkable downtown setting. The hotel’s iconic architecture and vibrant interiors channel Dallas’ retro spirit, while its location puts you steps from public art installations, the historic district, and lively entertainment. Spend the day exploring nearby museums and galleries, then return for a night of cocktails and games in the hotel’s stylish lounges. Whether you’re drawn to the city’s creative past or its energetic present, this downtown base makes it easy to experience Dallas from every angle.
