Beer magnate Adolphus Busch's namesake, The Adolphus, offers guests the graceful splendour of a European country manor in the heart of a thriving city. Today, after an $80-million renovation, Dallas's finest 21-storey baroque splendour shines as it did in 1912 when it first opened.

Many have terraces and wet bars, enabling guests to take the party outside.

Things to do in Dallas

Downtown is one of the most remarkable flowerings of sky-scraping architecture anywhere -that same skyline familiar to the world from the television show Dallas - and a multitude of restaurants and shops in the West End, a former warehouse district with several major cultural institutions.  A little further afield the Deep Ellum is the lively centre of the city's alternative arts and music scene. For those with an X-Files view of life, check out the Conspiracy Museum, where the history of presidential assassinations and cover-ups from 1835 to the present is meticulously examined.  As the city's unhappy legacy as the assassination site of President John F. Kennedy, the Texas School Book Depository sixth floor exhibit reveals the details of the assassination, along with an account of the conspiracy theories that continue to emerge. Lending a peculiar, science-fiction twist to the skyline, Reunion Tower offers an observation deck and a revolving rooftop restaurant and bar. The Adolphus' locality is ideal for the West End historic district, American Airlines Sports Arena, Dallas Museum of Art, Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Centre and the Majestic Theatre.
