The Statler, a Dallas hotel that closed in 2001, is back.
After a three-year, $255 million redevelopment, the hotel reopened on Tuesday
as a member of Hilton's Curio collection.
The 19-story hotel overlooking Main Street Garden Park has 159
guestrooms and 219 residences as well as 33,000 square feet of meeting space,
including a 13,000-square-foot grand ballroom.
The property's five restaurants and bars include an
underground cocktail lounge called Bourbon & Banter, a Pan-Asian restaurant
called Fine China, and a poolside roof deck lounge called Waterproof that will
open later this year. The hotel also has a four-lane bowling alley.
The hotel was redeveloped by Centurion American Development
Group and is managed by Dallas-based Aimbridge Hospitality.
