From historic icons to architectural newcomers, these are the luxury stays that are defining Dallas right now—each with its own personality, point of view, and reason to check in (and never want to leave).

Hôtel Swexan

The cool kid on the Dallas luxury scene, Hôtel Swexan is where Swiss precision meets Texan swagger—and the results are stunning.

Each of the 134 rooms is a little different, layered with rich textures, Frette linens, and moody city views. Upstairs, the rooftop infinity pool and Pomelo lounge are already go-tos for glam cocktails and golden hour hangs, while downstairs, a Michelin-nodded steakhouse, speakeasy-style bar, and hidden tea service round out the scene. If you’re into design, food, and a bit of that ‘if you know, you know’ vibe—Swexan is it.
