This 330-room boutique is breath of fresh air from the many generic hotel chains in Dallas. Though the building itself is located in an historic area of downtown (a major plus), the attractively designed rooms look and feel modern with clean bathrooms, iPod docks and comfortable beds. Even though the hotel is located within walking distance of plenty nightlife options, the on-site lounge holds its own. And the free milk-and-cookies reception every night is a cute, homey touch.

For travelers catching an early flight, it’s hard to beat the location of this Grand Hyatt, which is right inside Terminal D of the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. This upscale hotel is especially convenient for those flying American, as check-in and security are just outside the lobby. It’s not as close to the other terminals, and travelers still have to budget time for the shuttle, but overall it’s a pretty impressive property. Many of the nearly 300 guest rooms overlook the runway but are still quiet. There’s an upscale restaurant, a separate sushi bar, a cafe, and a spa.

One of the most luxurious properties in Galveston, this hotel has more of a romantic vibe than one suited for families. Features include a refined restaurant, a beautiful spa with outdoor whirlpools, and simple, beachy rooms with comfy beds and modern amenities; it lacks a kids' club. The standout here is the pool. Surrounded by vine-covered columns, it has a whirlpool and swim-up bar, or guests can opt for poolside drink service from attendants. Getting to the beach requires crossing a sometimes busy road, but this four-pearl property offers a solid bang for the buck with generally reasonable rates considering the fresh, modern look and plethora of amenities.
