Description: Formerly the Adams Mark, this hotel was originally a Sheraton that has come full circle. It’s the largest hotel in Dallas, with 1,840 rooms and more than 230,000 square feet of meeting space. A $90 million renovation produced new guest rooms with separate seating areas, LCD flat-screen TVs, and iPod docking stations. On the Sheraton Club level, guests are treated to complimentary breakfast, hors d’oeuvres, and drinks in the evening, and business services, such as copier, fax, and printer use and complimentary office supplies. There are indoor and outdoor swimming pools, and the hotel is connected to the Plaza of the Americas, with its indoor ice-skating rink. Dining choices include the Draft Media Sports Lounge, Peets Coffee & Tea, Chill and the Kitchen Table Restaurant and Lounge. Perhaps best of all, there’s a DART light-rail stop in front of the hotel.
