Exterior of the Mansion on Turtle Creek with its prominent dome
For those in the Dallas area who want to plan a luxury staycation this holiday season, The Rosewood Mansion on Turtle Creek may be an ideal getaway.
The legendary property has recently been redesigned and renovated, enhancing its timeless appeal and charm. In addition, as one of 28 properties in the ultra-luxury Rosewood Hotels and Resorts collection, the hotel has put stringent health and safety measures in place to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 for guests and staff.
Located in a serene setting in the vibrant Uptown area of the city, this hotel was recently named #1 hotel in Texas and #32 in the world by the 2020 Conde Nast Traveler Readers Choice Awards.
Welcoming rotunda area in the entryway
Originally built in 1925, this boutique property was once a private estate, its architecture influenced by 16th-century Renaissance Italy. The interior features meticulously restored old-world touches like hand-carved fireplaces, marble floors and stained-glass windows. With only 142 guestrooms and suites nestled over 9 floors, the scale of the property is intimate.
The redesign was overseen by internationally recognized interior designer Thomas Pheasant and Dallas-based architecture firm, three. The team aimed to maintain the Mansions rich Texas heritage while incorporating a fresh and convivial sense of style into the guestrooms, suites and public spaces.
The inviting lobby showcases one of the most impressive enhancements. The plaster rotunda at the entryway has a leaf design cascading down the ceiling handcrafted by Casci Ornamental Plaster that required the skills of 12 artisans over a period of six months. This area has been reconceived as a casual, residential living space with separate concierge and registration areas, rich wood paneling, custom-made tables and chairs for socially distant lounging, and locally sourced objets de art.
Consistent with Rosewoods A Sense of Place philosophy, an art collection scattered throughout the newly designed spaces was curated by Texas-based international firm Eaton Fine Art. More than 50 custom-created works pay homage to the propertys history and its Dallas roots.
Guestrooms include photography with striking images of the Mansion and its architectural details by Dallas photographer Sil Azevedo. Guest corridors are lined with Western style photographs complimented by 128 ceramic vessels commissioned by potter Sara Paloma.

With its incredible setting and story, the Mansion has always evoked an animated and engaging atmosphere that makes its guests feel warmly welcomed and instantly at home, says designer Thomas Pheasant. Taking this residential quality to the next level, while at the same time honoring the Mansions rich heritage and history, was the focus of the renovation, and Im honored to have had the opportunity to build upon the propertys legacy and usher in the next iteration of what is surely one of the most cherished hotels of our time.
The spacious rooms, all with fully renovated bathrooms, include 24 connecting rooms (12 of which are suites) suitable for families or small travel pods of unrelated friends. The interior design couples the hotels classic architectural details (including French doors, petite balconies and bold crown molding) with modern comforts and amenities that mimic residential interior design.
Renovated Turtle Creek Suite Bathroom
Texas-born Executive Chef Sebastien Archambault oversees cuisine and menus across the property, including the highly-acclaimed Mansion Restaurant which, like the hotel, is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year. Although the dining spot, often a scene for celebrations, is known for its romantic ambiance, it is family-friendly, too, with a special childrens menu. Outdoor dining is available, weather permitting.
Foyer outside The Mansion Restaurant
For those who want to bring home a bit of the Mansion, the property has partnered with Miron Crosby, a local cowboy boot maker based in nearby Highland Park Village. Made of calf, Nile belly crocodile and kid skin, the custom-designed Mansion Boot features intricate inlay and applique details that highlight the Mansions iconic quatrefoil motifs.
A new partnership with Neiman Marcus allows guests residing in the hotels top suites to have private access to the brands flagship store in Dallas prior to public opening hours. Alternatively, guests at The Mansions can arrange a complimentary consultation with a personal stylist from the store and have merchandise delivered to their suite.
Guests can expect to find Christmas trees and sparkling lights adorning the hotels public spaces. Additionally, they will find a personal Christmas tree placed in their room prior to arrival. With the option to mail their favorite decorations to The Mansion ahead of time, guests can opt to dress the tree themselves or let the Mansion staff work their magic.
To further spread the holiday spirit, the hotels signature Mansion Bar creates special holiday cocktails and The Mansion Restaurant offers holiday menus.
With coronavirus cases spiking across many states in the U.S., deciding whether to stay at a hotelor travel at allduring the holidays entails a careful assessment of possible risks and rewards. Here is some additional information that may be helpful:
There are currently no travel restrictions or mandatory quarantine requirements for travelers entering Texas from other states. Face coverings are required in indoor public spaces and outdoor areas where social distancing is not possible, with minimal exceptions.
Guided by local and international health experts, Rosewoods global health and safety program, Commitment to Care, extends to guestrooms as well as to The Mansion Restaurant, The Mansion Bar and other on-site facilities. This includes increased cleaning and disinfecting of common touch points, regular renewal of all air filters and air conditioning systems, and implementation of physical distancing protocols. All staff undergo mandatory health and safety training and receive personal protective equipment to be worn while on property, and guestrooms are equipped with personal care kits consisting of face masks, hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipes.
The Mansion caters to the individual guest preferences with alternative options for check-in and check-out, in-room dining, parking and housekeeping, ensuring the maximum level of comfort and safety.
