Hilton Fort Worth ReviewThis large, historic, and centrally located hotel -- opened in 1921 as the Texas Hotel and where JFK spent the night before and was memorably photographed on the morning of his assassination in Dallas -- was recently renovated and incorporated into the Hilton family. The badly needed, $9-million makeover, which jettisoned an adjacent annex, has transformed this hotel from a dowdy also-ran to one of the top large hotels in downtown Fort Worth. Behind a beautiful old brick facade is a soaring, impressive lobby; guest rooms are now swank and serene, with handsome (even masculine) color schemes, elegant furnishings, and plush bedding. Bathrooms have also been overhauled. Though the hotel has long been popular with groups, conventioneers, and other visiting businesspeople, it is now a superb place to stay for virtually anyone visiting Fort Worth (children stay free when occupying their parent's room), and it's a good value for this level of sophistication, style, and convenience to Sundance Square's lively restaurants and bars. Look for a new restaurant soon to complement the casual Texas Café. Facilities: Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
