The 1,001-room Omni Dallas Hotel celebrates its grand opening two years after breaking ground. Locally based 5G Studio Collaborative, BOKA Powell, and Waldrop+Nichols Studio joined forces on the hotel’s design, which is distinctively Dallas. In guestrooms, a red Pegasus adorns bedding, while custom carpeting in one of the ballrooms features patterns that model the city’s freeway system. In addition, the hotel features more than 7,000 original pieces of art from 150 local artists in the guest rooms and public spaces.
The 23-story glass tower’s exterior curves are replicated inside, highlighted by elements such as a glass-bead escalator hanging over the lobby escalator. Guests have access to a variety of F&B venues, including Bob’s Steak & Chop House; Texas Spice, a casual farm-to-market restaurant; the Owners Box, a sports bar showcasing an 18-foot screen TV and 65-foot-long bar; Uptown Terrace, an urban pool deck; and lobby lounge. Additional amenities include a spa and 110,000 square feet of meeting space.
