Adolphus Hotel

Adolphus Hotel

Adolphus Hotel

The Adolphus Hotel, built in 1912 by Adolphus Busch of beer fame, was once the tallest building in Dallas. The luxury hotel has had several additions to its original structure. At one time, it had 1200 guest rooms, but today it has only 435.

Inside the Adolphus Hotel, the French Room has served five-star cuisine for twenty-five years.

Continue on Commerce Street and cross Field Street, then Griffin Street. To your left, you will get a great view of the Dallas Convention Center, which you saw earlier on the tour.
