Features
  

The AAA four-diamond award-winning Pyramid Restaurant & Bar shows distinctive culinary flair by serving dishes made with herbs and vegetables grown on the hotel's rooftop terrace. Fully re-designed, the restaurant resonates with a modern, sleek look that depends on rich earth tones and polished metal. Organic wood sculptures decorate the room and an artistic representation of a centuries-old, crosscut tree welcomes diners inside the foyer.

Dining

Pyramid Restaurant and Bar
The new Pyramid Restaurant & Bar's sleek contemporary decor is perfectly paired with exciting menus created by Executive Chef jW Foster. Since his 2007 arrival in Dallas from his native Canada, Chef Foster has focused on creating a "fresh market" approach to menus for both the restaurant and bar incorporating products that are organic, authentically local and sustainable. jW's personal culinary philosophy emphasizes fresh, local ingredients in an effort to minimize our carbon footprint on the planet and support the local economy. With his new menu for Pyramid Restaurant & Bar, he infuses classic dishes with modern twists while highlighting the wide range and variety of products available in the state of Texas. "We are dancing with classic dishes," says Foster, "not reinventing them. Many of the items on our Modern American menu are designed to evoke an emotional response or memory for our guests."

Fairmont Dallas was perfect for us!!

We had a great trip to Dallas for the cowboys vs steelers game and the fairmont Dallas was perfect for us! We were able to walk to go out to eat and took a cab for the game and stadium tour. The hotel had a cab in. Less than a minute every time we needed one! It was absolutely wonderful!

Nice view

The location and view were terrific but the hotel wasnt as good as i expected. The ac in our room didnt work so we were hot, the next day maintenance came and said he fixed it but by the time we got back to our room it was late and hot, we were too tired to switch rooms so we slept on the floor in front of an air vent.

Service plus Smile plus Convenience

Service with a smile from the valet, to the front desk, to the consier. We were able to walk to the acquariaum, ate at the Dakota (connected via underground tunnel), and visit the broakway show at the Winspear Opera house of Jersey Boys. Ken of the consier got us the best seats in the orchestra at a great price the day we arrived. He hand delivered them to us as we ate our anniversary dinner at the Dakota. service, service, servicea!!! We took the trolley next day to West Village. Ate at Breadwinners along the way. A great hotel with easy access to tons of stuff in Dallas. Will probably stay there again if something brings us to Dallas!

Avoid the hotel's bottled water and mini bar. There is a 7-11 about a block away that was selling Fiji water bottles 2 for $3. The hotel had the same exact bottles in the room for $7.50 each.

Wedding Accomodations

Everything went well after we were given our room early but they mistook it for being ready. It was cleaned promptly and everything thereafter was great. Also, less than a block away is a 7-Eleven where you can pick up some snacks and beverages and not have to pay the over-inflated hotel prices.

Great Stay

Very nice hotel, the pool on the rooftop is really nice. Room were very clean and the pillows were awesome. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. I would stay here again. Location of the hotel was ideal. Unfortunate you have to valet your car and get charged $25 for it with no other option but the car was brought up within 10 mins every time I requested it.

Great hotel in the Arts District downtown

This is a perfect hotel for a downtown Dallas business or pleasure trip. Many restaurants are within walking distance, but a fair number are more lunch type places. It is two blocks from the art and sculpture museums. I would definitely stay here again.
