Renaissance Saint Elm Dallas Downtown Hotel Review

Update: This property is now Renaissance Saint Elm Dallas Downtown Hotel.

This review was originally written from my stay when the hotel operated as Cambria Downtown Dallas. You can book the current Renaissance Saint Elm property on Expedia.

While taking a little vacation in Downtown Dallas we had the pleasure of staying at the Cambria Downtown Dallas.

We wanted a place that was close by so that we could have a car-free weekend and walk or Lyft to most of our destinations, and Cambria fit the bill. Plus, we had previously been to the gorgeous Petro Bar & Bistro which is inside the hotel and had such a fabulous time already, so I was ready to explore the rest.

The Cambria is one of the more budget-friendly downtown Dallas hotels, but with all the comforts for a beautiful stay like bright airy rooms, little bits of history, modern touches like the hanging lights, and the comfiest beds to fall into.

Petro Bar & Bistro was located in the lobby, and whether or not you’re staying here, makes for a great social space to hang out and have drinks or eat with a rotating happy hour. Plus, if you’re staying at the hotel and are a Choice member (which is free), they have additional perks like free drinks, etc.

The charcuterie board here is incredible, and you can’t go wrong with their steak, but I absolutely cannot resist their chocolate cake!

If you’re looking for a beautiful hotel with all the comforts close to Downtown Dallas for you Dallas weekend getaway, the Cambria is great! It had everything we needed.
