Hotel Revel

Excellent and private

The room was BEAUTIFUL?! probably one of the nicest rooms ive stayed in! walls were a little thin and neighbors did NOT obey the 10pm excessive noise restraint but besides that it was wonderful

If I could give Hotel Revel zero stars I would.
The website touts the hotel as a luxury location. It’s a disappointing hostel at best.
The amenities listed on the website were nonexistent. We had no mini fridge, blow dryer, steamer or bath robes. These are the things Hotel Revel lists on their own website as expected.
We arrived and realized there was no mini fridge (after purchasing perishable grocery items) we contacted Shelton, the hotel manager. His solution was to move us to a room on a different floor where we could share a community refrigerator with strangers. We looked at the “lounge” which was merely a community kitchen, which contained leftover food from other guests and open sauce pots with cooked food. We declined the offer to switch to an identical room on a different floor.
That evening after showering, we realized there was no blow dryer of steamer. Again, I called Shelton for assistance. He stated that our room didn’t have the promised amenities, but he’d bring them at 8pm. I asked for compensation for the frustrating experience and he had the audacity to offer $20. I declined his offensive offer and asked for a $100 compensation. He agreed, but never sent the refund. He also never brought the promised blow dryer and steamer. He bold faced lied to us.
The housekeeper only came on one night, so we only received new towels once and had to go purchase our own toilet paper.
This hotel is a scam.

Love the windows!

Check in was terrible. They use an app for everything, which is significantly less efficient than traditional check in. App smart key wasn’t activated at check in time, so we couldn’t even enter the building to get to the front desk. Some other guest finally let us in so we could check in at the desk. Guest said they’ve never seen a single hotel employee. Not a soul in site - pretty weird. Restaurant/bar is permanently closed. We called the listed phone number and it took about 10 mins to sort out our problem and get the proper “smart key” on the app. Room was kinda cool with the big windows. Bed was comfy. Shower body wash was empty - only had a single tiny bar of soap for showering and washing hands. Parking costs extra. Overall it was a huge, unnecessary pain in the butt. Would 100% never stay again.

Super clean. It is a little noisy in that area but I was aware as I have stayed her before.

The area around the hotel is pleasant enough. There are some restaurants nearby but the road outside is busy and a bit noisy. The hotel furnishings are clean and minimal - lots of concrete and metal - so there is a lot of noise that travels from room to room and from outside.
The check in process required and app and we used that to unlock the doors to the hotel and room. I wasn't expecting anyone there at check in but someone was on site, and he was very helpful and friendly.
The bed was quite comfortable, but we could have used more towels.

The room had a beautiful industrial luxe vibe, which I really appreciated! Unfortunately, there were several drawbacks. There was no microwave, the in-room coffee machine was missing, and the fridge didn’t work.
What really made the stay feel off was the atmosphere throughout the hotel. When I went up to the fourth floor where the patio and kitchen are, all the lights were off—and the same was true for the patio/bar area downstairs. With no staff presence and so many common areas in the dark, it gave the impression that the hotel was partially closed. It made the space feel uninviting and even a bit unsafe, which was disappointing given the excellent views and prime location that deserve to be highlighted, not hidden.
Access to the building was very easy, which I appreciated, but the overall vibe left something to be desired.
Most disappointing of all: I had filtered my search to only show places that included breakfast, so I was genuinely surprised to learn this hotel didn’t offer any—especially at this price point. I had to order Uber Eats for breakfast, which worked out fine, but it was an unexpected extra expense.
That said, if these issues were addressed, I would 100% stay here again. I'm in Dallas often, and this place has great potential.

Property was modern, cute & quiet. It was great for walking to restaurants, bars, and has cvs next door, The concierge was just lovely. Shelton was accommodating, personable & so warm and helpful. We would definitely come back!

Super low water pressure, couldn't check in until 4pm, and the a/c was on overdrive despite putting it up to almost 80 degrees, room was freezing cold and traffic and noise outside was so loud

Everything is automated. If there is a problem with the app to check in or park, it’s a phone call. The apps didn’t work.

Cold and bizarre space- minimal amenities. You can hear all the neighbors and traffic all night.

Very weird. I've been to staffless hotels before, but this was just odd. It felt empty, like desolate. I literally didn't see another person the whole time. Ammenities were basic and even some showed wear already. If you are staying overnight or just need a place to sleep, it's fine. If you're there to hang out at all I can't recommend it. The bed was comfy and it was quiet, so got what I needed.

It was perfect for us friendly staff and a great location the only thing that I would add is a grab bar in the shower and sweep strips under doors because I see in the future it a small rodent gets in the building it would be very bad

The customer service was great from the start. I do wish there was a private parking lot versus a shared with the businesses next to it. I loved the hotel, nice and simple, and different. I do wish it was quieter to where we couldn’t hear the neighbors opening and closing their back doors. I also wish the balcony wasn’t shared with the rest of the hotel floor. The room was very clean and there was so many unique art pieces to look at. The bar was so cool!

Very different. If you are introverted this is your place. Keys are through an app. You don’t have to see or deal with anyone if you don’t want to. No amenities really but a nice big bed and a decent shower. Retro modern brutalist atmosphere. I’d do it again.

The road noise was awful… the shared porch meant we were woken up at 1a by people yelling at each other next door and feeling pretty scared. There is no staff at the hotel so the only option is to dial 911. I was approached by a panhandler when I arrived. Overall not a good experience at all. You at least need a security officer. So much sketchiness. Definitely not for solo female travel.

Very noisy and hard to sleep because of road noise. Room did not cool down well.

Nice no-frills modern style property, near many conveniences. Friendly & helpful front desk attendant, mainly reachable by phone. Not at front desk full time. My room was on the 2nd floor facing 8th Ave. which was a bit noisy due to traffic and vocal homeless folk hanging out across the street in front of the Subway sandwich shop. One homeless person came out of the dark from between the buildings and approached me when I had checked out in the early morning at 5:30am while it was still dark, even though parking lot is well lit. I'm surprised this section of town has become a bit more intense due to the homeless from downtown migrating this way. Also, walls not soundproof...could hear the couple quite loudly in the room next to mine having sex from 2-4:30am, then staying up talking for the next hour after that.

too minimalist, has potential, but missing the mark, there wasn't anyone to check us in (someone eventually showed up a few minutes later), the parking payment process was confusing, the bar (which is closed and has a ton of potential was closed, but was an open space with a movie showing on a huge screen and completely dark, which created more confusion), the bathroom was huge (as was the room) but was totally open and had very little space for items, there was a cool sitting area right off of the elevator, there were no normal room items--not even kleenexes, i don't recommend staying here
