Top hotels in Uptown
Hotel ZaZa Dallas
Check-in wasn’t great, the guy wasn’t super friendly and definitely not knowledgeable of the area. The rooms and hotel was clean and nice so no issues there. Valet was CRAZY expensive and they charged for internet plus and extra $45-$50 in “service” fees on checkout.

HYATT house Dallas/Uptown
It was a nice stay. Friendly staff and the free breakfast was a perk. I just didn’t like the fact that you had to pay for parking and you had to request for your room to be cleaned. Apparently housekeeping only comes if you request it

Magnolia Hotel Dallas Downtown
The building is stunning and the check-in process easy. I was on business and needed to get some work done but the WiFi was not working in my room and the staff's response was essentially "you can use the lounge or try a coffee shop" instead of addressing or, more importantly, solving the issue.

The Westin Dallas Park Central
I stayed here while my significant other was at nearby Medical City hospital. It was a very nice room, and close to so many restaurants.
