Top Southern Methodist University Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton Dallas - Campbell Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Great property… see you again next year"

HYATT house Dallas/Lincoln Park

8/10 Good

"The carpets are tired and old. The furniture in the lobby is stained and old. The king bed was lumpy. The color scheme is outdated and dark. It’s a depressing atmosphere overall. Paying $29 per night for parking is offensive given the state of this hotel. The location is the one good thing about this hotel."

The Monticello Guest House - Charming M Streets - Dallas

8/10 Good

"Overall, we experienced a pretty smooth stay in this guesthouse. My husband did note that the bed felt a little lopsided when sitting on it/laying down. Also, it seemed as though the TV had difficulty staying connected to the WiFi, making it tricky for us to access our streaming services. We had to reconnect it multiple times and got frequent error messages. Other than that it was a good stay in a safe neighborhood!"
