I was in Dallas this week for a client dinner and knew that I would need to be back at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) the next morning. The most convenient hotel was the Grand Hyatt DFW as I was flying American Airlines and it’s attached to the terminal where I would be departing. The Skylink train takes you directly to the hotel and I loved that I did not need to take a shuttle or Uber.
Anthony’s Take: The Grand Hyatt DFW is conveniently located and offered the perfect place for a quick, overnight stay. It’s being renovated currently, but this did not impact my time there. I was proactively upgraded to a suite and the staff I encountered were all friendly and helpful.
When getting off of the Skylink train, head downstairs to the hotel. It’s located closest to Terminal D.
Renovations are currently underway and will be finished by the end of the year.
If you’re arriving at the terminal from outside, an escalator or elevator takes you up to the hotel lobby.
Reception is found at the top of the escalators.
Booking
I booked a 1 King Bed room on a “Member Rate” for $401 plus taxes and fees. The hotel is a Category 5 property and room redemptions range from 17,000 to 23,000 per night when redeeming World of Hyatt points for a standard room. The hotel does not charge a Destination Fee.
Transportation to/from the Hotel
I did not need to take anything except for the Skylink train to get to the hotel. The next morning, I walked out, cleared security, and boarded my plane.
Location
As mentioned, the Grand Hyatt DFW is attached to Terminal D. The hotel provides the most convenient access to Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) and is easier to get to and from than the nearby Hyatt Regency DFW International Airport (review here).
The lobby is small with the registration desk straight ahead.
Cookies and flavored water were on offer for guests.
Another small table had some fall decor. There was no seating in the lobby.
Elevators were across the lobby.
I liked the succulents near the elevators.
A lot of the hotel is being renovated and entire floors were blocked off.
The elevator lobby and hallways on my floor were clean and in good repair.
Executive Suite (210)
There are 298 rooms and suites at the Grand Hyatt DFW.
The Executive Suite measured 670 square feet and opened with a bathroom near the entrance. The bathroom held a vanity with a single sink, a bathtub, a glassed-in shower, and a toilet.
A bar of Balmain branded soap was on the counter.
The tub was large, but not used by me.
The glassed-in shower was across. It was a decent size with adequate water pressure and temperature.
Large bottles of Balmain toiletries were on a shelf in the shower.
The toilet was well spaced within the bathroom.
It contained a desk and chair, arm chair, coffee table, couch, several lamps and side tables, and a TV.
The desk was great for me to take some calls and get work done before my dinner.
The desk held a Keurig, coffee pods, condiments, and cups.
A closet in the living room contained an umbrella, luggage rack, iron, and ironing board.
A small table and stool were in the corner of the room.
The large bedroom was off of the living room. It held a king-sized bed, nightstands, a chaise lounge, a side table, an armoire, and a TV.
The armoire was across from the bed with a TV sitting on top.
The closet held robes.
The armoire contained the safe and a mini-fridge.
The mini-fridge was loaded with beverages and snacks for sale.
The suite did not offer much of a view and was quite dirty.
Public Areas & Amenities
The hotel has a fitness center, an outdoor pool (pictured above), meeting space, and the Grand Met restaurant that is currently closed.
The fitness center is located on the first floor.
It offered a good amount of equipment.
I liked that there was a Peloton Bike.
Water and towels were provided.
Overall Impression:
I enjoyed my stay at the Grand Hyatt DFW and will definitely stay again when I need to be in and out of Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW).

I loved staying there. They even let me change the date bc of a day before schedule change and they didn’t have to according to Hyatt rules, I guess. Good meal (room service). Restaurant was a bit loud but full of people if you like a busy place. Beware of the little room fridge. I moved a Pringles to back of fridge to make room for meds and got charged for it later. It must have been a smart fridge. I wrote them and they credited me back.
