The W Hits Big D

Nights
When it comes to the Ghostbar on the 33rd floor of the hotel, it's pure Vegas, baby. A see-through, glass platform bar looks down on the city. When I was there, Vince Vaughn walked into the room. That's the kind of joint this place is. Brushing elbows with celebrities is the norm.

Sleeping at the W is quite comfy. Some rooms boast 11-foot ceilings, flat-panel TVs, and Bliss products. The bath opens to the bedroom, with a curtain for privacy, giving the space an open feel.
