HALL Arts Hotel, a luxury lifestyle hotel in the Dallas Arts District, has announced that it has joined Marriott Bonvoy’s Autograph Collection.

With the move, the hotel joins a global portfolio of over 340 independent hotels, each known for their distinctive design and immersive stays, while building on its reputation for art-forward, wine-driven hospitality, the hotel said.

“Since its inception, HALL Arts Hotel has reflected what we love about the Dallas Arts District — it’s a place where world-class art, architecture, and hospitality come together,” Craig Hall, CEO and Founder of HALL Group, said in a statement. “Being part of the Autograph Collection allows us to reach a broader audience of travelers who appreciate originality and luxury, while preserving the character and guest experiences that make HALL Arts Hotel so special.”

New art-inspired restaurant to open soon

Owned by the HALL Group and managed by Coury Hospitality, HALL Arts Hotel, Autograph Collection has become a Dallas cultural landmark since opening its doors in 2019. The hotel is recognized by locals and travelers for its extensive contemporary art collection handpicked by Craig and Kathryn Hall and renowned curators Virginia Shore and Patricia Meadows, innovative dining and wine programming, outstanding service, and immersive guest experiences.

Joining the Autograph Collection represents a milestone for the property, HALL Group said, further boosting its ability to deliver highly personalized stays rooted in art, culture, and thoughtful design.

As part of its next chapter, the hotel said it’s introducing a series of “thoughtful improvements,” including refreshed lobby and guest rooms and the debut of a new signature restaurant, Astra Kitchen + Lounge. Slated to open in early March, the restaurant will feature a modern, approachable design and a bistro-inspired menu. The name is inspired by the artwork on display in the space, further establishing the hotel as a vibrant culinary and social hub for both guests and the local Arts District community, HALL Group said.

‘Art, wine and thoughtful design shape every stay’

The hotel is introducing a number of guest experience improvements “designed to stir the senses and invite deeper connection, discovery, and personalization throughout the stay,” HALL Group said, including, per the company:

Marriott Bonvoy Integration: Marriott Bonvoy members can now earn and redeem points on stays at HALL Arts Hotel, unlocking access to the global loyalty program while experiencing a hotel that remains distinctly rooted in the Dallas Arts District.

Art-Forward Arrival Experience: The guest journey begins at check-in with a complimentary glass of its owners’ namesake boutique wine, HALL Wines, and a brief introduction to the hotel’s art-forward philosophy—setting the tone for a stay shaped by creativity, craftsmanship, and sensory discovery.

In-Room Art Discovery Experience: Each guest room will feature a curated collection of art postcards inviting guests to explore the hotel’s extensive contemporary art collection at their own pace. The experience encourages curiosity and reflection through close-up artwork details, artist audio insights, and thoughtful prompts designed to inspire personal connection.

Together, these enhancements reinforce HALL Arts Hotel’s position as “a culturally immersive destination where art, wine and thoughtful design shape every stay,” the company said.

Hall Group said the hotel’s vision closely aligns with Autograph Collection’s focus on individuality, distinctive design, and immersive guest experiences.
