The house
IHGRestored banking skyscraper
A century-old bank tower brings arrivals straight to a 24th-floor sky lobby overlooking the downtown grid.
What it’s good at

What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
a landmark 1921 skyscraper whose interiors have been transformed into a thoroughly cosmopolitan and painstakingly localized design-oriented boutique hotel.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Sundance Square Plaza sits two blocks north, and the Trinity Trails are a short bike ride away.
The rooms
Panther figurines hide inside the closets, and suites add deep soaking tubs overlooking the downtown skyline.
Restaurant
il Modo
A temperature-controlled glass room extrudes fresh pasta daily, and the kitchen prepares wood-fired mains for dinner.
At the table
Refinery 714 looks out across the North Texas plains. Guests gather around the marble bar for shareable small plates.
How it began
The tower opened in 1921 as a bank headquarters, briefly reigning as the tallest skyscraper in Texas.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
