Hotels Near Kessler Park United Methodist in Dallas

First of all, when it says the rooms have a ”shower/tub combination”, don’t believe them. Don’t believe ANY hotel chain on that: they are taking out the tubs as fast as possible. Cheaper to have a walk-in shower, easier to clean. ***But how do you bathe your small child in a shower?*** They’ve never had a shower and here you are in a strange place and suddenly they have water hitting their face and head and are terrified. But the description SAID there was a TUB, right? What are hotel execs thinking -- that we won’t notice? DON’T TAKE OUT ALL THE TUBS, people. We reserved a room for our family based on that description. I went downstairs before we finished putting down our suitcases, to say ”there must be some mistake, I have a little kid and there’s NO TUB in the bathroom, just a big shower stall. And I reserved a room with a tub.” But there were no other rooms available that have a tub. This trend needs to stop. Either put the tub back in or CHANGE your description. And TripAdvisor, be on notice that you cannot any longer say ”shower/tub combination” as one of the options, because MANY HOTELS NO LONGER OFFER THEM, so split that option into ”Shower only” AND ”Shower/tub combination”, thank you. Don’t do this to families! We take these rooms so we can use the kitchen which makes things easier on us but instead, you make it hard on us in the bathroom, not easier with that huge error. Aside from that, the room was clean. We dropped something behind the sofa/sleeper sofa and had to take it apart to retrieve the item, and it all was clean under there, pretty amazing. All dishes and silverware were in the dishwasher, still hot from steaming and drying, a good thing. Some surfaces are showing wear and tear. The doors in the cabinet under the bathroom sink are missing, and the woodwork is chipped and worn. There are no pens or pads of paper or directories about what’s nearby, in the room. Oh sure, they put some information on the TV but no pens? At a Marriott? So I asked for a few at the front desk and the person gave me ONE, saying ”COVID”. Sure, blame COVID for everything! The morning breakfast is good: scrambled eggs, bacon (not every day), sausage (most days), bread/muffins/bagels for toasting, grits, fresh fruit, yogurt, juices (not the best but they’ll do), cucumber water (nice!), waffles you make yourself. Not from Whole Foods but hey, pretty good. For a couple of days, there was no butter, oddly enough. And the person maintaining the kitchen and food-serving area for several days was not wearing a mask. But COVID! Come on, staff, either all wear a mask or all don’t wear them. One of the managers never wore one, but three others did. Signs everywhere about wearing a mask, too. And hardly any guests wore them in the common areas, either, including the elevators. Then again, this is Texas. I think the bed is too high. But the room was quiet, and faced west so we saw a few spectacular sunsets. The grounds outside need attention: y

Very sad, booked the wrong ticket. comfort inn has always been my best choice in North America, because it will never let you down, the environment, clean and tidy, breakfast is rich

The location is close to the city center and is very convenient. When I arrived at the hotel at 8 a.m., I was able to check in early. The room was new and very clean. The staff was good and the breakfast was above standard. I will definitely stay at this hotel again next time I come to Dallas.

Great location right off the highway and by college campus/Bush library. We enjoyed the room and design as well as the bar/commons area (unfortunately did not bring swim suits for the indoor pool for the cold rainy day, would have been nice). Was a little weird to not have ice available on the floors and finally figured out we had to just grap qt bags out of the freezer in the lobby (no one mentioned that) but for all the fun aesthetics and location there wasnt much we could complain about (as long as you look around and find the best price as online it was coming up wildly different). Overall would definitely stay again and recommend.

The location was excellent for our purposes, about three minutes from the doctor my husband was seeing. Our room was missing a couple of light bulbs, one in the bath and one between the beds, but the front desk clerk said they were going to be updating all the rooms with new fixtures, furniture, etc, so for right now they were just making sure there was at least one light on in each spot. The bed was very comfortable, the tv was large. The breakfast, in a large area, had yogurts, cereals, scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, sausages, bananas and apples, muffins, pancakes, and cinnamon rolls, along with juice, milk, and coffee. The lady in charge of breakfast kept all the selections replenished. There is an indoor pool, but we did not go to it so I cannot comment on it. We will definitely stay there again if we need to be in that location.

I don't like doing reviews because I don't want to leave complaints about so many hotels I stay at. But I have decided to leave a review on this one because of some of the other reviews complaining it was old and not worth the money. Y'all must be crazy. This hotel will rank as one of my favorite places to stay. The lobby is absolutely fabulous and makes a wonderful first impression when you walk in. I could stay here a week. Based on some of the other reviews, I expected an old Embassy Suites feel but it was not that at all. Fantastic interior, bathroom, bed, couch, extra blanket, everything. I did not get a chance to eat at the restaurant but I bet that is awesome as well. Best place I have stayed in years. And if you are going to the Galleria, the location is unbeatable.
