Tru by Hilton Dallas Market Center
A rooftop bar with city views for the golf crew
About this hotel
Tru by Hilton Dallas Market Center leans into color and energy rather than the muted palette of a standard business hotel, and the rooftop bar is the property's real draw once the round at Cedar Crest Park wraps up for the day. Free breakfast and a solid gym cover the practical side of a multi-day golf trip, while the six-minute walk to Ascension Coffee in the Design District gives the group an easy morning stop before an early tee time. Pet-friendly rooms and full accessibility round things out, and the twenty-five-minute taxi to the airport keeps arrival logistics simple for groups flying in from out of state. It is a solid pick within its price bracket, though not the single standout of the wider Cedar Crest Park hotel set.

Our take
Tru by Hilton suits a younger or more social golf group that wants a rooftop bar built into the stay rather than sourcing one downtown. The colorful, compact rooms will not suit everyone, so groups wanting more traditional space should compare this against a standard Garden Inn instead before booking. Compare it against similarly priced neighbors before booking, since the wider downtown cluster offers real variety at this tier.
- Head to the rooftop bar right after check-in on the first night to set the tone for the rest of the group's trip.
- Grab coffee at Ascension Coffee before an early tee time rather than relying on the hotel's own breakfast service alone.
- Book early for weekend trips, since the colorful, compact room format has a smaller footprint than a standard suite hotel nearby.

Why guests love itThe rooftop bar ended up being where our whole group gathered every evening after Cedar Crest Park, which we hadn't expected going in. Rooms were compact but the color and energy of the design made up for the smaller footprint. Free breakfast got everyone out the door on time for an early tee time each morning of the trip. Overall it did the job for a golf-focused trip where the room was mostly a place to sleep between rounds.
