Hilton Anatole, Hotel skyscraper in the Market Center District, Dallas, United States
The Hilton Anatole is a hotel tower in Dallas's Market Center District, made up of two pyramid-topped wings and a central tower with over 1,600 guest rooms. The building also holds large event spaces, several restaurants and bars, and an outdoor pool complex.
The complex opened in 1979 as part of the broader Market Center expansion in Dallas, then grew with a new tower added in 1984. It quickly became one of the main venues for large conventions in the region.
Throughout the public areas, visitors can see works from around the world, including segments of the Berlin Wall integrated into the interior. Walking through the corridors feels more like moving through a gallery than through a hotel.
The public areas are open during the day and easy to enter, with good signage throughout the building. The layout is spread across several levels, so it helps to pick up a map at the front desk before exploring.
In the early 1980s, the hotel hosted major political gatherings connected to national elections, drawing figures from across American public life. Few visitors walking through the lobbies today are aware of that chapter in the building's past.
