Hotel for Family
Posted by HondaDavidson95@reddit | askdfw | View on Reddit | 12 comments
Looking to take a short vacation to the DFW area. Two adults and two kids under 3. Looking for hotel recommendations with connecting rooms. Any tips are appreciated, including things to do or restaurants to try! Would like to be under $800 or $1000 for 4/5 nights.

Was it clean?

It was. Did you ever go?

Two rooms for 5 days for $1000 total - that's $100 per room per night, and you're gonna have a hard time finding a decent hotel at that rate. I was going to say look at the Hilton Anatole which. Has a fantastic pool area, but again, I don't think it'll be in that price range.

Great wolf lodge or the Gaylord in grapevine. Take them to paradise springs it’s in the hotel you don’t have to leave the hotel if you don’t want to

Great Wolf Lodge would cost more than $2,000 or even $3,000 for 2 rooms over 5 nights lol

So your budget is $100/night per room?
My go-to low budget hotels in dallas are these - but they will not be modern or luxurious in any way, and not in nice fun areas.
For things to do I suggest looking at other threads on this sub asking the same! If you need personalized recs feel free to message me, I used to be a tour guide so I can give good suggestions.
Sleep Inn - Dallas Love Field ~70-80/night https://maps.app.goo.gl/VGR7q6viVgEN3Evq6?g_st=ipc
Comfort Suites North Dallas (very sketchy location but safe) ~$60/night https://maps.app.goo.gl/8hv7NqAFt7wkmoKb7?g_st=ipc
Comfort Suites Addison https://maps.app.goo.gl/GwbYrZaZ9vhoiDfP6?g_st=ipc
Sign up for an account at ChoiceHotels.com and you’ll get the lowest rates.
All Embassy Suites have an option on their website to select connecting rooms - but their rooms average closer to $200+ a night and are generally nicer properties overall.

We stayed at the Residence Inn on Silverglen in Plano in a 2 bedroom suite room for around $1200 from 5/28-6/2. I loved that room and it was so worth it. Both bedrooms had a TV and a closet. The main bedroom had the attached bathroom and the other had the shared one. There was a queen bed in both bedrooms and a pull out bed in the living room. We wanted room to stretch out during a convention for four adults. And it being a residence inn you get a full kitchen as well so you can save money and cook for the kiddos. Not sure what the current rates are, but worth checking out!

My family and I also really like the residence inns when we travel for a lot of the reasons you listed. It's like a mini apartment so it's a lot more comfortable. The downside is that not all residence inns are upgraded and some can be kind of dumpy and uncomfortable.

Guys, Gaylord is like $400 a night. OP said $1000 for 5 nights, lol.
When I search for my family, I find that booking.com has better search filters that help find 2br rooms and suites. Since I live here, I don’t have a good Dallas hotel req, unfortunately.

Gaylord!

^this 100%. Gaylord is just what you are looking for.
Also is you want more luxary, look at the former Four Seasons, Now the Ritz Carlton Las Colinas, it’s upscale and very family friendly.
