Among the distinguished hotels in Texas, two properties located in North Texas have secured top spots. The Omni PGA Frisco Resort & Spa is ranked as the second-best resort in Texas, maintaining a high score of 93.50 from nearly 180,000 voters. This recognition comes after it was the top resort in Texas last year, evidencing consistent popularity and excellence.

In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, Hotel Drover was named the top hotel in the metroplex for 2025.

Hotel Drover is part of Marriott’s Autograph Collection and offers unique Texas heritage experiences.

The Travel + Leisure awards consider various factors, including rooms, location, service quality, food options, and overall value. These rankings serve as an important indicator of the region’s hospitality strength and appeal to travelers worldwide.

Currently, there are already 30 hotels under construction in Dallas, with more planned for the coming years.
The region is also preparing for new culinary experiences, with multiple new restaurants receiving Michelin mentions scheduled to open in Dallas in 2025. Additionally, the Midnight Rambler bar at the Joule Hotel has been nominated for the “Best U.S. Hotel Bar” award at the 2025 Spirited Awards. The finalists will be announced in June, with winners revealed in July, signaling continued innovation and recognition within Dallas’s hospitality scene.
