The rate listed on the hotels' web site was too much for my company to pay, so there was another site that poped up called Whatahotel.com
I'm so glad I decided to try it. I was able to get a great rate at such an absolutely fabulous hotel. The service, rooms, and the people were the best I have experienced in my 22 years of working in the hospitality industry. I will certainly stay at this hotel whenever I am in Dallas either for business or pleasure.

The Mansion was the backdrop for a girls' getaway weekend this summer. I had read a lot about the hotel's reputation, and I have to say that the hotel exceeded my expectations. Every staff person was friendly and exuded charm, and the residential feeling of the public areas and guestrooms made me feel right at home. The rooms were comfortable, and the linens were absolutely divine. We had a room on the first floor with a small garden patio. It was cozy.

We especially enjoyed the Mansion Cham Chams (Champagne and Chambord...note: the perfect girls' getaway cocktail!) in the relocated bar. At the time of our visit, the restaurant and bar were undergoing renovation.

Though I haven't had the pleasure of visiting Dallas since, I've read about the renovated restaurant and bar. Both sound elegant with a modern touch. I hope to visit The Mansion again soon. This time, maybe I'll bring my husband...

We stayed the first two nights of our honeymoon in the Mansion and every part of it was magnificent! Our late arrival the night on the wedding did not stop excellent service and friendliness. The bellman even offered to take a picture of us "crossing the threshold" - a memory we can keep forever. We never had to wait for service and they
helped with every detail in a friendly and professional manner.

Our room was outstanding. Spacious and perfectly clean. The thing that sets the Mansion apart in my mind is the attention to detail. I felt like I was at home because of the comfort and ammenities, but it
was definitely a retreat into luxury. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and the bathroom was roomy and well-supplied. Our room had several windows that overlooked the beautiful front courtyard of the hotel. And even though we were in the middle of Dallas, the hotel's location just off of the major road allows it to be quiet and peaceful.

And the food - WOW! As if the luxury of the hotel isn't enough. Our breakfast the next morning was some of the best food I've ever tasted. I definitely recommend the French Toast. The fruit was beautiful and fresh. And we couldn't leave witout trying the Mansion's famous Tortilla Soup. It sounds strange, but it's delicious
and a real Texas treat.

If given the chance, we would do this all over again, and I have no doubt that it would be just as good the second time around.

We found this hotel to be quietly attractive, spotlessly clean with friendly and efficient staff. There is a small, but lovely walled pool area where we enjoyed breakfast.
