The Joule Dallas hotel is nearing the completion of its two-year, $78 million renovation and expansion of five interconnected downtown Dallas buildings. Slated to open this fall, the project revitalized a 1920s neo-gothic landmark building.

Crafted by New York-based designer Adam D. Tihany, the hotel is filled with architectural details, rich furnishings, and original pieces from artists like Andy Warhol, Tony Cragg, Adam Fuss, and Richard Phillips.

Tihany’s contribution to the recent expansion of the Joule builds on Texan culture and downtown energy. The vision for the 32 additional guestrooms in the second tower takes inspiration from Jules Verne’s Journey to the Center of the Earth and retains the modern feel of the 129 rooms in the first tower, bringing the total to 161 guestrooms.

Three ultra-luxe penthouse units have been added to the 21 premier guestrooms and eight deluxe suites. Two penthouses are multi-level, each with a private terrace, and the third occupies an entire top floor.

The expansion also almost tripled the hotel’s programmable meeting space to more than 14,000 square feet with the addition of two new ballrooms, three additional meeting rooms, a pre-function area to the existing ballroom level, and a rooftop terrace.

The highlight of the event space expansion is the rooftop Joule Terrace, which boasts a climate-controlled pavilion with retractable roof, a glass elevator shaft, and skyline views.
