My husband and I stayed here for a romantic getaway. We were very disappointed in the size of the rooms. The whole hotel was very dark and quite. The bathrooms were nice but the tile was broken on the floor and it look like someone stuck it back on with toothpaste. the hardware in the large bathtube kept falling off.... more

Stayed 9 days for business - liked the fact it bordered a neighborhood and I was able to get out and walk around, yet it was easily accessible to NC Expressway. Unlike some other reviewers I got a nice room with separate bathroom and a kick-ass shower. Had at least a few meals at Social which were quite good, although... more

I had previously stayed at the Palomar Hotel in Dallas many times and decided to try the "other " Kimpton property when Palomar was not available. I agree with previous respondents who commented about thin walls- I was awakened 2 different nights by alarm and phone in the room next door. I did find the service to be quite helpful.... more

The walls are very thin, so when the neighbors next door came back at midnight and talked until 2 am, I heard every word (even though I put earplugs in and had a pillow over my head). Also, my room was in the same hallway as the management offices, so during the day, there is a lot of talking and... more

Hotel Lumen is in a great neighborhood in Dallas. It's a very small, trendy hotel. It's extremely comfortable, and they offer a variety of different rooms. Great decor and in-room electronics (generous LCD flat-panel TVs, iPod/MP3 player compatible alarm clocks, etc.). One thing I do need to add is that a few of the rooms are NOT family friendly; some... more

I was pleasantly surprised by this little hotel. The location was great - close to SMU, dining, shopping, Dallas Love airport and major freeways. The room was spacious, well appointed and the shower was gorgeous (glassed walk-in with multiple jets). I love Kimpton chain hotels and this one seems much smaller than others, but it was still really nice. I... more

We decided to stay at Hotel Lumen due to its close proximity to the family we were visiting. The hotel turned out to be great! Small hotel but great amenities. Free wine and beer in the bar nightly from 5-6. Friendly service throughout. The studio rooms are great for families. It is basically a two bedroom suite. Overall, we were... more

Stayed at the Lumen on a recent business trip to the Big D and found the hotel to be a little jewel across the street from SMU. The hotel is nicely renovated with lots of personal touches. Nice lobby, bar/resturant, good room,gym and great shower. Inaddition to the great decor , is the friendly staff - who go the extra... more

This was our third stay at the Hotel Lumen. Our daughter is a student at SMU and this hotel is very conveniently located to the campus, art museum, shopping and neighborhood dining. Excellent parking both covered and in lot next door. The front desk staff double as housekeeping in the late night and were happy to bring extra towels and... more
