Fabulous property - most everything was wonderful about the hotel. The best part was service - we were very impressed with the quality service and friendly staff at the Palomar.

The rooms are very nice, though a bit small. The TV's are huge and the beds are as comfortable as I any hotel I have stayed at.

The spa attached to the hotel is great. Check it out.

The restaurant is okay, however, i mentioned that in my online survey after my stay and got very prompt and sincere followup from the hotel manager and the food and beverage manager. They seem to take the feedback seriously.

I am confident you won't regret your stay at the Palomar. They are a wonderful hotel with wonderful people.

By the way, our transportation to and from the airport was fabulous. Our driver was Larry Shelton and he can be reached at [-].

I styayed here with wife on Dec 29, for 2 nights. Paid regular rate of aprox 325/night for a deluxe king. Staff very friendly and helpful. Car valet guy brought car up in quick time. Check in was quick. Luggage was brought to room right away. Wife needed a razor for legs, and it was brought with in 3 minutes of the phone request. Did breakfast room service,, quick and tasty.

This was a Hilton back in the late 60's. It was closed and Kimpton totally redid it and it reopened in Sep 2006 as the Palomar. It reminds me of a -W- type of property.

They had a nice 1 hour free wine/champagne happy hour in the lobby, along with free coffee in the morning. Small touches,, but those build a repeat visit.

Small things but... in room desk area had a --4-- port electrical plug in for computers/phones. etc. Free internet, bioth wired and wirelss. 2 phones (1 handsfree), 2 line telephones. Great LG HDTV/flat panel LCD TV's... Nice radio, and cool reading lamps on bed so wife could sleep while I worked (sorry, we are married)... Another thing.... so many hotels now use compact flour. light bulbs. They put off a stange color, but at the Palomar, true incadesent bulbs, bright enough for reading/working. Lots of dimmers for lighting. Also, nice bathroom shampoo/soaps.

Wife did yoga at the Exhale spa.. Free workout equipment access. Overall a great experience and highly recommended. PS The new Trader Vic's restaurant just steps around the corner from the hotel.

I've traveled for 14 years and stayed at a number of hotels and motels. Some were good and some were not. I had the best nights of sleep at the Palomar I've ever had in my entire life! I want to buy the bed in my room!

The back massages and wine tasting while meeting the other guests in the hotel was the high point of my day. My wife and I both agree it was the best time we ever spent in a hotel.

I give it 5 stars *****!

First of all the convienet location made staying there so easy, on and off the highway in seconds, was such a treat, and made it such a breeze to travel around Dallas.
The staff was so friendly and went WAY out of thier way to accomodate and be certain I had everything I wanted \ needed.
And then the rooms were impeccably clean and so tastefully decorated with such a flair it felt like such a shame to mess it up.
Then the next day it was spotless again.
Of course the HUGE television didn't hurt.
I have travelled all over the world and have stayed at many hotels, the Palomar in Dallas is easily 6 stars, the staff really puts it over the top !
I would highly reccomend staying there, and I have, to anyone.
