Courtyard Dallas Las Colinas

Standard Courtyard, but the staff makes the place what it is. They go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. Really pleased with this property and the convenience of the location. Food is surprisingly good for a courtyard hotel.

The internet here is so slow.
And the weight room was weightless! (seriously, just treadmills, elliptical, and a bench that you can’t press anything with).
Furthermore, the gym is so terribly small that if someone was working out right before you, you’d be swimming in their B.O.
In the morning, good luck getting hot water. (Though at least it wasn’t cold).
Props to the lobby layout! (Too bad I don’t really care because I spend my time in either the gym or my room — which, by the way, still had that old popcorn ceiling reminiscent of 80’s track home construction.)
At least they had granite bathroom sinks. and an LCD TV.
Rooms are spacious — too bad they wasted it by not providing a microwave or fridge! So where are they, Marriott?

Pro: Close to the airport.
Con:No fridge or microwave which we found very inconvenient because we checked in late at night and brought our own food. Plus what hotel doesn’t have a fridge and microwave these days?

Was in Irving for business. It took 35 minutes to check in and then was told I would have to stay at their sister hotel across the street. There were 4 of us staying there from the same group. 2 at each hotel… This added an extra hassle. They comp’d our room, but because we were staying for business purposes the extra hassle was not worth a free room. Nothing like and early morning meeting and waiting for a shuttle! (Sarcasm) I do not recommend this hotel to anyone for any reason. Your online reservation is defiantly NOT guaranteed at this hotel.
(If Marriott Las Colinas was interested in customer service they would offer a free to customers instead of forcing it on them. The customers after us were given a room in the original hotel. Not sure why we were moved, but it made business travel more of a hassle than it needed to be)

Really a 3.5 but rounded up because the staff here is super, super nice.
This is a typical Courtyard, convenient to the airport but not much else unless you have business in the area. The property is older — don’t be fooled by the upgraded lobby (which is really nice). The rooms still have the old style blue/​gold carpet and old furnishings. Definitely time to update!
Also, depending on where your room is you may gave quite a long walk as the layout is kind of jacked up and there are only one set of elevators. The hallways were very humid and musty but my room did not smell funny and was a goof temperature.
What sets this property apart from others is the super kind staff — they upgraded né to a suite (appreciate that!). We arrived late and managed to grab a drink just as the lobby bar closed. The front desk clerk stopped by and said if we wanted refills or even just waters, he’d be happy to get it for us. Nice!
All in all you can stay at worse in Dallas, and believe me, I have.

Very clean, comfortable, full service hotel, really welcoming staff. I wish I brought my swimsuit to take advantage of the hot tub and indoor/​outdoor pool. Being from the Northeast I enjoy the warm weather when I travel to the south for business so the hot tub and pool are important to me. The bed was very comfortable. I was not a fan of the pillows, but overall I really enjoyed this hotel.

Nothing to write home about, but a perfectly decent place to stay on business. Very nice staff. I was pleased that day two, the kid working the breakfast bar remembered how I took my coffee. And when inquiring about a taxi to the airport, the desk clerk offered to arrange it and remembered my last name, That’s pretty darn good, if you ask me.

I stayed here again this past week and would like to downgrade from a 4 to 2 star review.
While the area, lobby, cleanliness, etc were all fine, I had quite a few issues:
— The bed was super firm. I really like my pillow tops.
— Internet is free but SO slow!
— You can hear people open and close doors in the hallway — all night long!
— Water pressure was so bad that after I finished showering it looked like my hair was dirtier than before since most of the conditioner didn’t come out
There is a new Marriott in the area I plan to try next time I’m in town — hopefully that will be better!

Pretty standard for a Courtyard. Nothing great, nothing horrible.
The wifi speed sucks. Average fast-​food type restaurant. Decent breakfast.
It’s considered a good area because it’s easy to get to – and lot’s of big businesses around – probably why you’d even think about staying here. It’s not near downtown Dallas.

Nice, friendly, easy to get in and out from the airport. The lobby is newly renovated and inviting, the staff go out of their way to help you.

I feel like I must have been staying at a different Courtyard than the 1^st reviewer of this place. Great area? More like a soulless, strip mall and office park area right close to DFW. There are many Marriotts and other hotels in the immediate area and you could do a lot better for $ 150/​night.
Pros: Close to the airport and some training/​research facilities. Free parking. There is a «gym», but it’s basically 3 cardio machines and some free weights facing a wall. Free computers and printers in the lobby.
Cons: Internet is via a short ethernet cord, so you are tethered to your desk. TV is an oldschool bulky number, didn’t turn it on so I can’t comment on the channels offered. Bedspreads are old and outdated. Mini fridges have been removed from the room and an empty space remains in the cabinet. Bathrooms have bathtubs with peeling enamel. Hall noise is very apparent through the doors and some of the rooms are pretty dark inside.
One of my pet peeves is having housekeeping come into the room when I have the do not disturb sign on the door. Sometimes I don’t want my room entered when I leave my computer out, etc. They made up my room while the do not disturb sign was up.
The lobby is newly redone in an Ikea/​Scandinavian style complete with cubes of fake grass topping the tables. No real bar to speak of, but there is a breakfast counter serving yogurt and Starbuck’s coffee as well as glasses of beer and wine at night.
Front desk people are helpful but I would look elsewhere next time.

Nice hotel in a great area. My room was clean and they even have the bed/​tv setup the way I like it! Staff is very nice and accommodating. I was an elite member and scored some free treats. It’s near DFW but you wouldn’t have known. Highly recommend.
