PB hotel design editorial

Few downtown Dallas addresses carry more civic weight than The National, the former First National Bank tower on Akard Street whose colossal limestone arcade — visible in the images as a parade of arched bays spanning the ground and mezzanine levels — established the building as one of the most architecturally assertive commercial structures in the city when it completed in 1964. Thompson Dallas is fitted into this Howdy Holmes-era behemoth as part of a broader mixed-use redevelopment led by developer Todd Interests, which transformed the long-vacant tower into a destination anchored by the hotel's 219 rooms across the lower floors. Interior designer Rottet Studio handled the guest rooms and public spaces, threading a mid-century Texan sensibility through dark-stained wide-plank oak floors, walnut bed platforms with channel-tufted leather headboards, and brass hardware that appears throughout — on sconces, nightstand frames, and the floor lamps positioned beside navy velvet sofas. The restaurant interiors lean into a more charged register: curved semicircular banquettes in amber channeled leather, onyx-topped tables on cast-bronze bases, fluted walnut millwork, and a lacquered ceiling that deepens the amber warmth of dome-shaded brass table lamps. The rooftop pool deck, framed against the downtown skyline with the iconic Pegasus sign visible to the north, is organized around a lap pool lined with cabanas and teak decking — a sociable outdoor room positioned at the precise midpoint between the building's historical gravitas below and the open Texas sky above.

"Great hotel in downtown Dallas- liked the very comfortable bed and opulent entrance and overall vibe of the hotel. Had breakfast in the Little Daisy which has a nice ambience and food. Pool is small but has some great views of downtown- overall a perfect stay!"

"Good in downtown but uptown uptown will be better for safety now given the situation of Dallas downtown. Rest was okay for me."

"Thompson Dallas is what this generation calls performative. This hotel appears beautiful but that’s about it. The valet staff is friendly even when we arrived during a super busy time when they were dealing with a ton of guests for a wedding rehearsal. Front desk staff was not warm or welcoming though check in process was quick and smooth. I’m not sure what I was expecting. Maybe a little bit more welcoming for a “fancier” property. We were on the 18th floor for our stay but it was as though we stayed on the ground floor. We heard all the obnoxious pretend expensive cars throughout the night reving their engines. On certain nights we heard what seemed like vacuuming in the hallways. One of the shades in our room did not work. Maintenance came to pull it down and it stayed down our entire stay. Making the room quite dark during the day. The bathroom could use at least one hook for a toiletry bag. If you use self parking, be prepared to figure out how to get to the hotel elevators. There needs to be better signage indicating that you have to take service elevators through certain doors to get to the hotel elevators. It also stinks down there. If all you want is to stay at a “fancier” Hyatt property, this may be it. I would rather spend my money or points elsewhere."

"Valet service and check- in experience was exceptional. The location is great but if you are not used to navigating downtown Dallas it can be a little confusing with the construction (obviously not the hotels fault). The sky view suite was top tier!"
