My family including 2 very small children stayed at the hotel during evacuation for Hurricane Ike and were on the property for about a week. It is located near uptown and its sister property the Crescent but is secluded on Turtle Creek. It is also not very well marked which, in this case, increases the feeling of being hidden in... more

This hotel DOES NOT need updating! It is wonderful just as it is. I would call it a hotel with a lovely patina. It is not a new, modern, trendy Four Seasons or Gaylord. It is the MANSION on Turltle Creek. What does that mean to me? 1. Bed Linens are made by Quagliotti and Carmignani of Italy. Not the... more

My husband and I live nearby in Fort Worth, and thought we'd give the hotel a try to celebrate my birthday. We called early the day of arrival to request an early check-in, and were told the room was ready, which we were happy to hear since I wanted to spend the day at the pool. I skipped lunch at... more

As a Dallas resident, I have always wanted an excuse to stay at this storied hotel in my own home town. Recently -- due to a small home renovation -- I decided to take a small in-town vacation and booked a room at the Mansion on Turtle Creek. The staff at the Mansion was wonderful -- they anticipated my needs... more

This is a beautiful, elegant, classy hotel. It's not huge and almost gives you the feeling of staying at someone's gorgeous home. The lobby is elegant and there are fresh flower arrangements on almost every surface...including the guest room bathrooms. The hotel is famous for their service and we were not let down. The valet service was the best we... more

Spending just 1 night in the Mansion exemplified what they call the famous Texan hospitality. The website looked good but we were still apprehensive. After coming from NYC, Boston & D.C. hotel fees, the $350 a night fee we were paying for the Mansion seemed too cheap. The confirmation email sent was not very professional looking and was delayed, the... more

We've stayed at many hotels over the years, including other Mobil five-star/AAA five-diamond properties, and think this is the best hotel we've ever stayed in. The premises are beautiful, our room was beautiful in a quiet, elegant, comforting way, and the service was attentive and thoughtful without being unctious. Examples: (1) The front desk staff cleared up a slight check-in... more

No strangers to fine hotels, we expected the best upon arrival. Instead, we were told to wait until the check-in staff could help us (one of them was speaking animatedly to a friend). Officious in the extreme. I believe that management doesn't train staff correctly. After the excruciating check-in everything was fine. But what a first impression...! PS: don't expect... more

The staff went above and beyond to accommodate us during our stay. My wife was 8 months pregnant at the time, plus we had our other 4 children with us. The staff at the front desk was amazing during our entire stay (11 days!). There are some other places I'd like to stay next time, but I most likely will... more
