Hyatt Regency

$$$$ | 300 Reunion Blvd., Dallas, TX, 75207, USA

$$ | 208 Barton Springs Rd., Austin, TX, 78704, USA

Hyatt Regency Bellevue

$$$ | 900 Bellevue Way NE, Seattle, 98004, USA

Near Bellevue Square and other downtown Bellevue shopping centers, the Hyatt looks like any other sleek high-rise but its interior is well-maintained and elegant with marble floors and a grand piano.

Fronted by a fountain and incorporating some of the original 1923 facade, this contemporary theater-district hotel connected to the convention center has an '80s-chic glass atrium with a café and great views of surrounding historic buildings.

Perched between the Chicago River, Lake Michigan, Millennium Park, and Michigan Avenue, the spot is perfect for business or leisure travelers.
