Belmont

Even though James and Philip had their epic fight at the Belmont Hotel in Austin, the Belmont in Dallas still provides a swanky place to hang (but not fight) with friends. When you’re done working out at their on-site gym, you can sip a Belmontini while watching the skyline, grab some locavore grub at Smoke or just relax in one of their stylish suites. There are decent package deals with all kinds of amenities, including champagne, transportation to local music venues, and even an in-house tarot-card reading. James could’ve used that one!

If you want to go out on the town, take a ten-minute drive to the Dallas Art District—where you can stroll among the gardens of the Nasher Sculpture Center or the enjoy the rotating international exhibits and glass flower atrium at the Dallas Museum of Art. Or, if time is short, Oak Cliff is just five minutes away. You can catch an art-house flick at the recently restored Texas Theater (where authorities arrested Lee Harvey Oswald).

Nearby there’s also the ultra-trendy Bishop Arts District, which has a slew of art galleries, intimate eateries (like Hattie’s) and a kick-ass candy shop called Dude, Sweet that proffers confections like honey-and-lavender chocolates, vodka-lime truffles and assorted fudges and toffees. And, sweet Lord, there’s free samples of everything!

That’s it for our A-List guide to Dallas—until the show gets picked up for another season (pleasepleaseplease!)
