Hotels Near SPARK! in Dallas

The location was walking distance to the convention center. The room was clean and modern. They offered complimentary coffee and water every morning and had a very nice front desk staff.

The hotel is very nice, right in the center of the city, only ten minutes walk from Kennedy Square, bus station, Big Eye and museum! Moreover, the front desk and service ecology are very good, and the sanitation is first-class. Although Ctrip gives it a three-star rating, it is a four-star high-level hotel!

Checked in on Friday 6/3 for a wedding and checked out Sunday 6/5. The lobby, bar, and banquet rooms were all very nice. Hotel staff was very friendly, cordial, and helpful. Room was clean and comfortable. Pool was great! Service at the wedding was top notch. The shower was severely lacking in water pressure, to the point where I felt like I was in a public gym, but I had no issue overlooking this. However, my overall very positive experience was greatly reduced with all 3 of my interactions with the onsite Valet. First encounter: Checking in, the wait for valet service was 25 min. Would have parked myself but there was no clear instructions on how to do so. Valet attendants showed no hustle (a lot of confusion, standing around, yelling, overall chaos) and then I even witnessed an attendant driving a $100K BMW bump into a parked pick up. This left me very unsettled leaving my car in their care. Nevertheless I did. 2) I called to have my car brought around Sat morning so I could retrieve an item I had left in the car. Attendant was somewhat rude and dismissive on the phone as well as in person. 3) After checking out, the valet process was, once again, pure chaos. I understand this is somewhat to be expected at 11AM on a Sunday. But again, there seemed to be no organization, no system, and just general disfunction with little care for the guest experience. Then, I witnessed an enraged guest screaming profanities because his car had been badly damaged while in the care of the valet service. There was easily $1,000 worth of body damage to his car. Finally after 30 min of waiting, my car was retrieved. No remorse or apology for the wait or overall experience. In general, very nice hotel and stay that was severely diminished by the valet experience. Bottom line, if you're going to force driving guests to pay $36 per night for a valet service, it needs to be far more efficient, friendly, and people need to feel comfortable leaving their vehicles.

The location was excellent for our purposes, about three minutes from the doctor my husband was seeing. Our room was missing a couple of light bulbs, one in the bath and one between the beds, but the front desk clerk said they were going to be updating all the rooms with new fixtures, furniture, etc, so for right now they were just making sure there was at least one light on in each spot. The bed was very comfortable, the tv was large. The breakfast, in a large area, had yogurts, cereals, scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, sausages, bananas and apples, muffins, pancakes, and cinnamon rolls, along with juice, milk, and coffee. The lady in charge of breakfast kept all the selections replenished. There is an indoor pool, but we did not go to it so I cannot comment on it. We will definitely stay there again if we need to be in that location.

DJ is the epitome of class and professionalism. He provided me with excellent hospitality service, this hotel is lovely and clean. Loved my room and overall experience. Thank you DJ and thank you Sheraton!

Breakfast is not included, the environment is not bad

I don't like doing reviews because I don't want to leave complaints about so many hotels I stay at. But I have decided to leave a review on this one because of some of the other reviews complaining it was old and not worth the money. Y'all must be crazy. This hotel will rank as one of my favorite places to stay. The lobby is absolutely fabulous and makes a wonderful first impression when you walk in. I could stay here a week. Based on some of the other reviews, I expected an old Embassy Suites feel but it was not that at all. Fantastic interior, bathroom, bed, couch, extra blanket, everything. I did not get a chance to eat at the restaurant but I bet that is awesome as well. Best place I have stayed in years. And if you are going to the Galleria, the location is unbeatable.
