Initially referred to as the Melrose Lodge, this historic property is oozing with character. If you happen to love lovely structure and respect the classics, you’ll love this timeless lodge.
Lodging
Our spacious room shocked me! The images actually don’t do it justice. The room had two beds, a desk, two comfortable chairs, a big TV, a altering space, and a white marble rest room.
Although the sink space didn’t have that a lot counter area, concern not! There’s a bit vainness space with a stool and mirror and the closet is stocked with robes and slippers.
The beds are extraordinarily comfy; I slept like a rock till the loopy Dallas storms woke me up.
The Library Bar
We spent Friday night time at The Library Bar. Inside is darkish and moody and horny. It’s actually the right date spot! Word: the web site stated that jazz began at 8:30 however the music really didn’t begin till 9 pm and one gal we talked to stated the music at all times begins at 9 pm.
We break up a main rib taco, crab cake, caesar salad, and french fries. The cocktails have been unbelievable; my Successful Mark drink was so good that Rachel ordered one for her subsequent drink however I moved on to an quaint, which is among the finest in Dallas.
Le Spa
We have been warmly greeted by the spa supervisor as quickly as we walked into the door. Le Spa overlooks the pool space and presents massages, facials, physique wraps, scrubs, pedicure, and extra. Warwick Melrose Dallas lodge friends get 20% off spa providers so don’t miss out!
The rose robes have been unbelievable. I ought to have purchased one. We loved spa water, seaweed pictures, and scorching tea within the leisure room earlier than and after our therapies.
My therapeutic massage therapist was glorious and it couldn’t have been higher timing for my Stress-free Ritual Therapeutic massage after the snake-on-the-jet-ski fiasco the week earlier than.
We loved a eucalyptus steam after which cleaned up within the lovely gold and marble showers earlier than heading right down to the pool for some summer time enjoyable within the solar.
Pool
Stress-free by the pool was actually the entire function of our Memorial Weekend staycation and it didn’t disappoint. We ordered some frosé and grabbed a pair of chaise lounges.
We beloved the caesar salad a lot the night time earlier than that we every ordered a rooster caesar wrap to get pleasure from pool aspect and it was scrumptious. It got here with fries, thank goodness, as a result of the Warwick simply may need one of the best fries in Dallas! Why aren’t extra individuals speaking about this!?
I began Kevin Kwan’s new guide and actually gasped seven pages in. After lunch and a pair hours of studying, we hopped within the glowing pool and swam for a minimum of an hour. I admit, I obtained a bit sunburned nevertheless it was value it. What a superb afternoon within the pool!
The Landmark Prime Rib
We ultimately obtained cleaned up and headed again downstairs for dinner on the newly reopened steakhouse: The Landmark Prime Rib. I used to be delighted to see the spacious, glamorous eating room, as I used to be simply discussing what number of Dallas eating places stuff their tables approach too shut collectively. Not at The Landmark!
The chandeliers, art work, and flowers have been completely love. My jaw dropped after they introduced me a French 75 within the prettiest champagne flute I believe I’ve ever seen in a restaurant. That is the sort of luxurious I need at a steakhouse.
We kicked issues off with the spicy ahi tuna crudo, the right mild starter in the event you don’t wish to wreck your urge for food.
I completely adored my filet mignon: completely cooked, a bit smoky, and melts within the mouth. The addition of herbed butter, mushrooms, and loaded mashed potatoes was simply excellent. 10/10 in my guide!
We break up the strawberry cheesecake for dessert, which actually went above and past so far as garnishes. There was whipped cream, fruit, a blue chocolate leaf, and edible gold!
Breakfast
There isn’t a Starbucks or fast service stand on the Warwick, however they do supply room service or you’ll be able to order the night time earlier than and decide breakfast up on the entrance desk. On Saturday, I obtained a bagel with smoked salmon and shredded egg and on Sunday, I ate the eggs benedict (I’m positive none of you might be shocked by both order!) at The Landmark, which was fairly hoppin.’
