My wife and I had an early departure to California and decided to stay at the Grand Hyatt. I had purchased the Park, Sleep, Fly package and it was well worth the money. I was a little worried after arriving that the noise from the departing planes was going to be an issue. I'd have to say that this was the quietest place I think I've ever stayed in my life. The night that we arrived, there just happened to be a terrible thunder and lightening storm that was passing through and my wife and I slept without hearing single peep. The room is very modern with all the up to date electronic devices and gadgets. The bathroom was absolutely amazing and roomy. There was a very large tub, a seperate walk in shower and hamper. The bed was very comfortable and was filled with pillows, I mean lots of comfortable pillows.
If you don't want to pay the high costs of room service or pay the ridiculous price of a soda or water out of the fridge, I recommend going to the Grapevine Mills Mall which is close by and provides wonderful restuarants and shopping.

Beautiful hotel right inside the airport terminal. Our room had a fabulous view of the runway. There is a roof top pool. We stayed here our last night of our trip because we had an early departure the next morning. I wish we had more time to enjoy the hotel, it was really nice. Super convenient for early flights.

This hotel was our lifesaver as American Airlines in it's infinite wisdom, screwed up on our connector flight home (after having screwed up on our connector flight to Cancun from LA). And to top it all off, all of the hotels that they had available for mechanical issues such as these were all booked due to severe weather issues they were also having at the same time. So we had NO CHOICE but to rent a room on our own.

My husband and I had been attempting to get home from Cancun and I had a case of Montezuma's Revenge. I had just about had it with traveling for that week. If not for this Hyatt, I may have lost my sanity!

They took us immediately, gave us a spectacular rate, and even went so far as to upgrade our room because the gentleman at the check-in counter could see in my eyes how miserable I was feeling. (Very, very nice British gentleman, didn't catch his name, but he went above and beyond!) We were able to get a full and peaceful night's rest and the room itself was BEAUTIFUL. Modern, clean and very well maintained. I was absolutely in love with the room!

If I ever get stuck in Dallas again, I wouldn't hesitate one minute to stay here. It was refreshingly wonderful.

I booked a room as place to sleep for my wife and I on an overnight layover returning from Barbados via Delta through DFW on May 25 - 26th. I booked directly through the Hyatt website under the advance non-refundable rate - $110 AAA with breakfast.

Note: There are two Hyatts at the DFW airport: the Grand Hyatt and a Hyatt. This review is about the Grand Hyatt which is located at Terminal D between gates 22 and 23. It has direct access to Terminal D from the lobby of the hotel.

We arrived at 11:30pm, and the DFW terminal connection trains were not operating, so you have to use jump on the terminal link shuttle buses located right outside baggage claim on the DFW terminals second level - easy since they run every 5-6 minutes.

You enter and proceed up the escalator or via elevator to the checkin floor. I tried using the kiosk self-checkin but could not access my reservation not a big deal considering the time. Checkin was breeze at the desk and had been booked into a king executive room. I was a little disppointed since my room was right next to the elevator, but amazed once I entered, based on the large size of the room with separate living area, huge bath and bedroom.

Positives:

Staff available and ready to help even for a midnight arrival.
Excellent room - very spacious.
Bed was extremely confortable.
6 pillows on bed - nice.
Room were quiet to be at an airport.
Alarm clock with IPOD docking station.
Valet parking available in front of hotel.
Hotel has three elevators -appreciated when busy.
Bathroom has large seperate shower and oversized bathtub.
Hamper in bathroom for towels, wet or dirty, which was nice touch.
Plenty of towels on hand.
Bedroom and living room each had a HDTV flat panel.
Food for breakfast was excellent. (try the Eggs Benedict - 2nd best hollandaise sauce I ever had next to Interconti new orleans).
Convenient for overnight stops.
Friendly staff and servers including valet people.
Lower level has computers and printers for online airline checkin.
Elevators can only be operated to room floors with a room key.
Hotel has fitness room which is good security measure.

Negatives:

Charge to park is $16/day; it is airport parking. For overnight stays, you have to park on level 2 & 4 which slightly inconvenient, and could troublesome if you have visitors while there.
Self-checkin kiosk was not working which may have been my error or time of night.
My Gold Passport number was not linked to my reservation, but staff easily fixed it.
No room service available or an open restaurant for late night arrivals.


All and all, my wife and I would stay there again in a heartbeat and wished every Hyatt were as great as this one on rooms, breakfast food and friendly staff.
