Stockyards Hotel
Fine hotel in the historic Stockyards District
Back to Stockyards Hotel
The stockyards hotel is one of those places you want to experience at least once. My wife and I stayed here for a two night stay in June '07 and back again for a three night stay in July. We chose the stockyards because of the stockyards historic reputation and we wanted a place where my wife could have things to do while I took care of business in the area. There's lots of quaint shops in the stockyards area all with western theme. The white elephant saloon and of course Billy Bobs, are all close. The hotel it self might not please the traveler that is used to Hiltons, Hyatts and the like that have posh amenities but the service the staff provide is as good as it gets any where. Yes, the room are small and hokey and yes the bathroom is small and the water pressure is not great blah, blah, blah but if you can't lighten up and enjoy staying here then you're too hard to please. The bar and restaurant are great and the wireless worked well. All in all, a pretty cool place to stay. My only caution is that all rooms are smoking rooms so if that's an issue, you better stay down the street.

We were married in the Stockyards Hotel Celebrity Suite in 1989. We have been back for our 8th, 10th, and 13th anniversaries and are planning a party for our 20th. We're not ranchers or tourists, but we have an appreciation of Texas and Fort Worth history and this is the epitome of such. The building is beautiful and the fixtures and woodwork are well preserved. Sure the bathrooms are a bit small but they are clean and the old style gravity tank toilets are so cool! The rustic furniture is not luxuriantly cushy, and cowhide is a dust MAGNET, but the ambiance is worth any inconvenience.

Stayed during November 2006 as part of a tour from the UK lasting 5 nights. On arrival, staff were very helpful and the reception is quaint in a spittoon and sawdust sort of way. Everywhere looked and probably was old but hey, it is a themed hotel depicting the old west. Unfortunatly, the theme is carried on into the rooms which we found to be very, very dark and our room was not very clean. The bed was hard and the sheets and towels carried on the spittoon and sawdust theme also. The bathroom was very dark and dingy and small and the bathroom door would not close as it was warped. If you want hot water out of the shower, dont try it when everyone elso is getting ready to go out, as you will not get any. Water pressure was virtually nill. Dont stay anywhere near the ice machine either as you will not get any sleep.

We liked everything,roon, location, and friendly and competent staff. The resturants in the close area including bars are exceptional, the shopping is unique and amazing, and Billy Bob' around the corner is such a blast...

The rooms have a perfect, western ambience. Very Quiet, although there are many rooms.

Everything was wonderful...I wanted to celebrate my first anniversary and I knew my wife had always wanted to stay at the Stockyards Hotel. I'd tried going to the hotel's website, but there was so much to choose from so I called them direct and was able to figure out what I wanted. The reservations person was so helpful, I ended up doing the "Escape Package" with wine and breakfast and had a dozen roses delivered. It went perfect...from getting there to leaving the carhops were right there to greet us and show us our room. The front desk had our flowers waiting in the room and delivered the champagne when we got there. The room was really nice, the furniture seemed authentic and rustic. We're definitely going back, the staff and the hotel were a great hit, my wife was surprised thinks its the most memorable thing we've done yet.

What a great place to stay for labor day. I would recommend this place for a family, couple, young, and old. If you have not gone to stay you must go. There is history and fun all in one location. The bar and restaurant are also great.

On my birthday weekend between 6 and 9 of my good friends get together and go somewhere. This year 6 of us went to Fort Worth. We stayed at the Stockyards. The Hotel and the staff are excellent. The beds could be a lot more comfortable for the price they charge and they should be able to hire a cleaning crew that actually CLEANED the rooms. Two of the six are professional housecleaners, and they really examine things closely - Even though on first site, it was pleasant to look at, the furniture had dust thick enough to write in, and the corners had major buildup in the bathroom and the toilets were pretty nasty at the floor level.
