Deep Ellum's century-long run as Dallas's most restless creative district — jazz clubs giving way to blues bars, warehouse raves, and now a wave of mixed-use development — gives the Kimpton Pittman Hotel its most persuasive design argument. The building, completed in 2019 and developed by Headington Companies, works across two structures: a sensitively restored early twentieth-century brick warehouse and a new tower addition whose board-formed concrete ceilings are left exposed in the upper-floor rooms, the raw finish sitting against white walls and light oak herringbone flooring with a confidence that avoids the usual industrial-chic clichés. The black steel and glass entrance canopy visible at street level pulls both volumes into a single legible gesture without erasing the material difference between them. The 164 rooms carry a palette that runs from slate grey leather bed frames and deep navy velvet curtains through to teal-upholstered channeled lounge chairs, the abstract expressionist prints above each headboard giving the spaces an energy that keeps them from tipping into corporate neutrality. Downstairs, the restaurant swings in a different register entirely — deep-buttoned chestnut leather banquettes, reclaimed oak tabletops on industrial metal bases, polished concrete floors, and a wall of decorative ceramic plates that nods to the neighbourhood's arts history. The courtyard pool, framed by navy-trimmed canvas cabanas and teak furniture against an original brick party wall threaded with climbing ivy, manages something genuinely difficult: it carries the atmosphere of a private club without the exclusion that usually implies.

Located in the heart of Downtown Dallas' live music and entertainment district is our Kimpton Pittman Hotel with deep roots in the heart of Deep Ellum. With one foot in the future and one foot in the past, our building was designed by African- American Architect, William Sidney Pittman in 1916. Blends of brick clad exterior meshes with modern Leed Silver Certified interiors. Our walls also talk! Our communal spaces are dotted with artwork reflecting the neighborhood's creative history. Guestrooms boast a minimalist palette with soft lighting, geometric prints and bold pops of color. Downstairs, our all- day eatery, Elm & Good, specializes in seasonal plates and elevated cocktails. Mingle on the outdoor pool deck and take in some live music curated by our local talent, sipping some Topo Chico sparkling water and craft beers around our communal fire pits. We are tipping our hats to that big-hearted Texas hospitality-- all smiles, no fuss.
