Realty Report: Is Dallas Now a Leisure-Travel Destination?

Hall Arts Hotel

AS HOUSTON'S PROMINENCE as a high-end leisure-travel destination grows, the same thing is happening in the DFW area. The Las Colinas Four Seasons is now a Ritz-Carlton; a new Four Seasons is currently in the design phase; Auberge Resorts recently opened the 106-room Bowie House in Fort Worth; and the stylish Loews Arlington bowed in February.


Meanwhile, in Downtown Dallas, the JW Marriott opened last year in the Arts District, where the four-diamond Hall Arts Hotel also lives. The vibrant and walkable area just east of Klyde Warren Park includes the Dallas Museum of Art, Meyerson Symphony Center, American Airlines Center, Nasher Sculpture Center, Winspear Opera House, and the stunning Dee and Charles Wyly Theatre.

The latter is located across the street from Hall Arts, which, in addition to a rooftop bar and restaurant with great views of the Pritzer Prize-winning building, offers guests a map of the neighborhood featuring a one-mile hike and bike route. Additionally, spring offerings at Hall Arts include the Curtain Call package, which lures theater-goers to stay the night with a $50 dining credit, complimentary valet and two tickets to Nasher Sculpture Center.

With Expertise in Blondes, Extensions and More, the Janelle Alexis Team Is a Go-To Salon

YOU CAN'T LIMIT Janelle to one title – Hairdresser. Her career and business has been established and built on a strong foundation. Using her two business degrees + one more in-process, this enables Janelle and the team to deliver not only a customer-focused experience, but a foundationally solid business. There is much more than meets the eye, and in sharing a little bit about Janelle, she was not only an international hair extension educator for over 14 years, but brings extensive expertise to blondes. She rounds this out with her previously launched namesake cosmetic line, which is a perfect complement to her belief that “Beauty is our Business”.
