Hotel Dryce

We loved our stay at the Hotel Dryce !! We were attending an event at Dickies Arena, it was super convenient and only a couple of minutes walk there. The room was small but very comfortable, and the decor was a really cool rustic vibe. The staff was great, the reception and checkout folks were very friendly and accommodating, it felt like we were guests at a friend's house !! And the bar was AMAZING. Foster was the bartender, and he is a rock star. His craft drinks were beautiful and delicious, and his knowledge of different liquors was impressive. I had an amazing gin and tonic, and we had a great discussion about our favorite gins. Will definitely come back.

Hands down a better experience than one at any impersonal big-name hotel. A complimentary drink of choice was offered upon checking in, a delightful way to unwind after a long day of travelling. No drip Folgers or Keurig coffee here because they get fresh roasted beans from a local shop each week and grind them here themselves. I'm not a big coffee drinker, but I really enjoyed starting my days here with the cold brew they had out. They also keep a dispenser with ice-cold water in the lobby that I used often to refill my water bottle. No complaints about the room. Very clean! So quiet that when you close the blackout curtains it feels as if you've escaped into your own little world. Genuinely friendly and thoughtful staff who even held onto my luggage after I checked out until I was ready to leave so I didn't have to worry about it. I originally only picked the place based on its proximity to the nearby museums as I wanted to be somewhere walkable so I wouldn't have to get a rental car or use ride shares the whole time. Usually, my only criteria for selecting a hotel is cleanliness, so perhaps it's not hard to exceed my expectations, but I would absolutely stay here again because Hotel Dryce is a gem that I look forward to returning to on a future trip to Fort Worth!

Really close to the Dickies' Arena. This used to be a dry ice factory. Pleasant atmosphere, great cocktails and location. They have a very nice bar with indoor and outdoor seating. Outdoor seating will be wonderful for the cooler months.

Was hear last month to attend the Ado concert at Dickies and really enjoyed our stay. Everyone was nice and friendly, the location was perfect for going to the concert, and the bar drinks were lovely. Will definitely come back if we go to another concert at Dickies!

Had an amazing stay at Hotel Dryce. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Their cold brew in the morning really stood out. The shower had the best water pressure at any hotel I've ever stayed at. Would book again!

Hard one not to gatekeep.I love this boutique hotel! Melissa is a rockstar and an exceptional part of their Management team. In this current epidemic of poor “customer service” in restaurants and hotels she’s sets the bar really high and is fantastic in her position. Excellent communication skills and it was refreshing to deal with a professional who understands hospitality and is great at their job. I am an experienced traveler and stay in a lot of hotels for business all over the country and she definitely deserves a raise because she is “rare air” these days and made a total difference in me booking the hotel after my first experience. Staff on site were really friendly and I enjoy staying there when I am in Fort Worth. Perfect location if you have an event at Dickie’s to stay at and walk to the stadium. Love the vibe and extremely easy to navigate. Definitely a Fort Worth thumbs up!!!!

I work in travel, and was trying to connect with someone in marketing for a few weeks with no luck. Each time I called the front desk person had no clue, and said to me that the hotel manager does everything the social, the hotel management, sales and marketing. I was told that Melissa the manager was too busy to probably get back to me. When I was finally given an email address she referred me to someone, who in turn replied then stopped replying. My point is if this is the quality of service I received without even staying there, imagine what it would be like as a guest. Fortworth has other great hotels, might be best to spend your money elsewhere. Its unfortunate as I was really hoping to check out the hotel.

We had a very disappointing experience at this hotel on June 21, 2025. We had requested 2 rooms to be ready at a specific time for a bridal preparation; they were not available until over an hour later. While we were about to leave the hotel, we asked the front desk and only one room was ready. Because of the delay, we were unable to start the bride’s makeup on time, which caused unnecessary stress on an already important and time-sensitive day.|We had clearly communicated our needs in advance, so the lack of readiness was extremely frustrating. For an event as important as a wedding, we expected a higher level of professionalism and reliability. Unfortunately, this experience fell short.

Always a good time. This time in particular I may have been the only customer so I got one drink and left but the bartenders are super polite. Although it's the lobby of a hotel it def has neighborhood bar vibes and I enjoy that

I can only post on the patio in the bar area. I came to get some food from the Soca truck outside, which only comes on occasion. What I can say is the patio looks like it would be a lot of fun. Must've been a redone space because the floor looks old but the building looks new. Plenty of places to sit and heaters and a fire pit. I hear lots of laughter and people having a good time. Looks like there's mixologist in there not just bartenders. I will come back for a drink sometime.

Long overdue review, but this place was much better than I'd hoped when I stayed here for The Lone Star Film Festival. I'd give 10 stars for the front desk staff if I could. Every one of them was awesome! The Dryce is very fresh and hip in a smart way. It's not a cozy place, as it was an industrial bldg originally, but I found it quite comfortable and relaxing. The lobby area is also the bar. It was a great place for the opening night party for the Festival, as it spills to a large L-shaped outdoor area with seating and a big fire pit. The bartenders were kind, friendly and helpful. The house special drinks were super tasty. In the morning, there's coffee at the bar/front desk area, and hot water for tea. The Standard room I was in seems particularly well set up for a single overnight, but I was staying 4 nights. I knew it would be small, but I was impressed how well they used the space. It had no closet, just lots of hooks, and I'd brought a full wardrobe for all the Festival photo ops. I requested extra hangers and got them promptly with a big smile. The clothes steamer they provided was high quality and much better than the typical iron/board hotel option. The bed was very comfortable, the pillows were not all the same - love that, as there's no "perfect" pillow for everyone. The "desk" in the Standard room was a fold-down wall-mounted unit. It was surprisingly solid, tho small; not great for a long day of work, but perfect for my needs. I wish there had been towel hooks/rods in the bathroom. That wasn't great. But honestly, that's my biggest complaint. Oh, the weather turned cold and windy my last day. Accidentally discovered a great hack, by using the door lock as a hook for the robe they provide. Because it blocked the seam of the door, the robe kept any cold draft out brilliantly! Anyway, if you're looking for a friendly, boutique hotel with a hip vibe, please stay at the Dryce. They're possibly the most pleasantly staffed hotel I've ever stayed at.

The hotel's location is amazing if you are attending anything at Dickie's arena. The standard room is very small--think Scandi style. Our room was really clean and worked for what we needed. The lobby bar, patio, and library are really lovely. Great places to gather. The staff is very laid back. Two drawbacks from the experience--After the show it was really tough to get drinks in the lobby bar. The staff was totally overwhelmed. It would have been helpful to have a guests-only line and have everything charged to rooms to speed up the process. The other thing to be prepared for is that it is LOUD. There are earplugs provided in the room (but only one set for two people). Our room overlooked the patio and we could clearly hear conversation and the music. Also, the air conditioner in the room was loud, the mini fridge was loud, we could even hear the folks next door snoring. (Not kidding.) We were exhausted so it wasn't a terrible bother for us. Overall, it was a good stay and we would book again if coming to a show.

At 3:00 PM a girl comes in and turns up the music. It's constant bumping, annoying jarring your room. $700 plus for two nights and the worse hotel experience!! The guy who checked us in and helped us with towels, he's super! But No! It's ridiculous!! Constant Bumping music in your hotel room is a nightmare!! I wouldn't stay here for free! If I could get my money Back and go somewhere else I would!!! Addendum: The morning guy said he'd ask the girl to turn down the music. So the 2nd night was better. I appreciate that, So I'm adding some stars, Because It's a keeper other than the bumping music all the time after 3:00. So just ask them to please turn it down or if you're there to drink & stay up late it wouldn't be a problem..

I want to like this place, I really do, but with the exception of my first visit I can't say it's the most welcoming place. The bar is cozy, but there's abundant outdoor space. The bartenders historically haven't been welcoming, providing selective service, the drinks a bit pricey, but it's alcohol so expected, and the crowd a bit pretentious. It's almost like the regulars and the staff have a secret club you're not invited to. I don't want to give a poor rating since my first visit was decent and I was able to meet Jonathan there, and he himself was so kind and inviting, so maybe the 4th time is the charm? I'll have to go back soon and see.

Completely misrepresented online. No food available. No service available. Dirty cold concrete floors. Holes and stains on sheets. Refrigerator doesn't work. No coffe pot or microwave. Lotions and soaps were used and open. Towels were coming apart. No remote or working tv. No staff on-site at the bar area. Filthy elevator. Rooms are extremely small and closterphobic. Desk was a 2'x2' board hanging from wall. Heating was extremely loud and barely worked. No lights except an unplugged lamp and a wall lamp that didn't work. No nightstand for belongings next to bed where plugs are to plug in phones, fan, etc. Charged 500.00 for one night in a crap hole. Disgusting hotel. ​

Recently I'm into hotel lobby hopping. I work from home and spend a lot of time on my laptop -- sometimes I need a new and inspiring atmosphere. Who doesn't? Lucky for me I'm able to work anywhere and was excited to spend some time at Hotel Dryce for a little ambiance, a little work, and a little cocktail. This is a pretty new hotel over by Dickies Arena in the cultural district, so the location is fantastic, close to several incredible museums and restaurants. The building is very modern looking from the outside, and inside it's like.... industrial-western. Think concrete floors, high ceilings, lots of natural light, and modern decor and furniture in western patterns and colors. It's casual but chic, colorful but not busy, modern but nostalgic. The lobby has a fantastic little bar with local beer, wine, and a craft cocktail list. Friendly bartenders. They host events relatively often featuring local DJs, and rumor has it there's a "silent book club" where you're encouraged to hang out and read, and you don't even have to talk to anyone else... Haha, that's my kind of book club! I'm excited to pop back in sometime for a drink and music.

I venture here on suggestion from Art Exhibit Patron This Was The Second Part Of Event . This Boutique Hotel Is Beautiful. The Lounge Area. Outside Patio . Every Thing Was Good .Service and Ambiance Top Notch. Service Was Great. Very Cozy Place. Great Group Hangout. Date night . Wow I Need Company. Lol . I Keep Yelping These Amazing Places . Parking Is Game On. Good Luck With Parking. They Use A Vegan Menu. I tried A Mocktail Of Organic Mixture. Amazing.Did Try Hotel Rooms Maybe Next Time.

Stayed here during a concert at dickies arena. It is literally across the street and such an easy walk! This place is a small boutique style hotel very modern and simple. Love the fact that this place isn't carpeted the rooms just seemed cleaner because of it! The bathroom counter space is definitely lacking but they did have carts in there for that to help. Hotel Itself was very clean and crisp! As an added bonus the beds were comfy!

Great ambiance but the tv remote was busted. Maybe that added to the ambiance. Very chill vibe. It's a converted ice plant, so there's that. Wife said the bed was uncomfortable but I slept fine. Definitely not your average hotel which may appeal to you.

Attended an event here and with beautiful weather the space was perfect. The lobby is anchored by a handsome bar and comfortable seating almost like someone's living room. The patios with ample seating surround the lobby space and are formed from the original historic building - a dry ice house. The staff was friendly and hospitable. A second bar was set up on the patio to help manage the crowd. Good food was provided by a food truck in the drive way since the hotel has great cocktails but no kitchen. The location is set in a neighborhood, very close to Dickie's Arena and the Cultural District's museums. Parking was very easy. It would be a fun place to stay.

Great service and atmosphere. Sorry no food here, but the drinks are perfectly priced for happy hour and on we went on half priced bottle Wednesdays. Great for after work happy hours or just a drink when you're in the area.

Hotel Dryce is very cute and has the kindest staff. Every worker I interacted with was very friendly and looking to chat. The rooms are decorated very cute, you get a large shower and literally the MOST comfortable hotel bed I have ever had. The bar tender was telling me and my friend about their silent book club and other events they host. Unfortunately I was only here for a short trip but I hope to come back and partake in the book club!

Hotel Dryce is a new hotel and bar in Fort Worth that in January, was touted by Forbes Magazine as one of the year's "most highly anticipated hotel openings" in the world. We didn't see the hotel rooms. This review is for the bar. The hotel is situated on Montgomery across from the Will Rogers parking garage. Parking suxxxx unless you're staying at the hotel. I drove four blocks from Montgomery into the neighborhoods and every street was marked "permit only". Can't blame residents as I'm sure every event would fill these streets with cars otherwise. But the hotel parking is adequate for hotel guests only, not bar patrons. The building, bar, and outdoor patio are chic-ish without being revelatory. We were there with a group that provided a free drink token for all 50 attendees or so. This resulted in a slow line at the bar. Self service ice water is available, which I appreciated. We tried the Coco Mondo and Refresh + Repeat. The Coco was good but not standout. R+R was eh. The staff was great, though the bar was overloaded. In the patio area is a fire pit with dry ice (Dryce=Dry Ice, get it?) which was cool to watch for a while. So overall, a cool new spot in Fort Worrh to try with warning about the parking and a drink menu to explore. Not sure why Forbes made the bold claims it did, but barely four stars from me.

Issa vibe! A chill relaxed atmosphere with a lot of thought, charm, and charisma. I stayed here for my birthday because I wanted to relax and it was the perfect place. I was able to work in the lobby while enjoying a curated playlist (Hotel Dryce on Spotify). I enjoyed a few cocktails - the Dryce Marg is tasty and I had some bacon and cheese tator tots from Gusto's, the food truck. The room was simple yet thoughtful (comes with a robe and ear plugs) with a huge shower. Their shampoo, conditioner, and body wash smell amazing. I'm not 100% but I want to say the blanket was scented also. It's a small boutique hotel that's excellent for hanging out, working, and socializing. And to top it off, Rabbit, a fluffy Frenchie greeted me at check in.

Came here for Gustos. Cool trendy independent hotel just outside of the 7th st area. Had a couple of drinks at the hotel bar. Bartender was nice. Hotel manager was present and friendly as well. Seems like a nice place to chill and have a drink. Our main purpose was to check out Gustos for a smashburger, they hang around the back of the hotel and I'm not sure I went through the right entrance to get to them. Burger was good, I wouldn't go back for it though unfortunately. I'm a big Dayne's fan. Nice hotel however.

Was looking for a hotel near our venue and could not have done better. Front desk person was very friendly and made checking in a breeze. Room was perfect with a modern bohemian style decor. Did not eat, but drinks from the bar were perfect.

We stayed here to attend an event at the Dickies Arena, and the 5 minute walk was very convenient. Our King View room overlooked the arena, too. The room was comfortable and had everything we needed. (I agree the counter space in the bathroom was lacking, but I think the cart made up for it.) We loved the huge shower and premium toiletries. The bed was very comfortable! The heater worked very well, and I even had to get up once to turn it down. We appreciated the free drink tokens for the bar. Since it was very cold outside on the night we were there, there was nothing out on the patio. It did look really nice, and we would have loved to be able to sit out there on a warmer night. The inside bar was funky and comfortable, and the bar staff was friendly. Overall, we would gladly stay here again!

Just swing in waiting for our Gusto Burgers. Such a vibe small intimate setting. They had a DJ on the turn tables... just a chill place to pop in and enjoy you friends. No crowd just simplicity at its BEST! It's not 5 stars just because I only been once and only had one drink. But imma be back

What a fun night! We wanted to have some cocktails and listen to some music and the Dryce was the place to be. Not crowded at all, the DJ was a really great mix of old school and reggaton, and the drinks were doing their job! I could not get over the art installations in the bar, it was every single thing. To sound like the kids, it was a whole vibe. I wish the menu wasn't fixed so I could have tried exactly what I wanted, but the mix of drinks that they did have were great! I drank the Next Episode all night and it was delicious. Mezcal, a mango/Tajin mix, and a candied mango on top! Really good and refreshing. The owner was there mingling about, I didn't realize that until after my friends told me, but bravo to him on setting up such a cool place.

Great service, very friendly. This is not a big box hotel chain. It is a small boutique hotel just steps away from Dixie's arena. Room was smallish but very comfortable. Great stay in Ft Worth.

A fantastic find that has great character, warmth and all of the vibes. Don't miss hanging at the bar where the cocktails are made with love! Great job Hotel Dryce! Don't change a thing!

What a wonderful gem in downtown Ft Worth. It has a Scandinavian minimalist Vibe. Doesn't have all the fluff, but very reasonable rate. A smallish hotel, but incredibly clean quiet and well appointed

Stayed for the first time and had a wonderful experience. Such a cool, laid back vibe. Super easy and "chill" check in/out process. Awesome lobby/bar. Friendly staff. Very clean rooms with the essentials and comfortable bed. Loved the design and overall atmosphere. Will for sure be returning!!

Absolutely amazing! From booking to checkout, the staff is friendly, helpful & attentive. Super aesthetic atmosphere in both the lobby/bar and throughout the hotel. I appreciated the hotel's attention to detail. Extremely clean & cute, we will absolutely be returning on our next stay in Fort Worth.

I started at 3 decided to go to 4 stars, probably more like 3.5. They did a decent job here have a bar and patio. Our dog was welcome on patio not in room. We stay at these boutique hotels a lot, many in Manhattan so I will share some thoughts. The bed was very comfortable, but as it was custom made I wonder why not move it 6 inches to the left to allow a small surface to put my phone and a drink? Missing the minibar in room, there is an income stream they are missing - I enter Ian client out of them before going out for the night. No place to hang any clothes? Bathroom nice but the little metal roll around cart does not give you much work space, then a spacious shower with no hooks for your towel or shelf for sundries? Thermostat set to 72 reads 65 and room never warmed up. Blackout shades were good and tv options fine. This is across the street from the new Dickies arena - so I would stay again if I were going to a show - book it early I bet it is sold out quickly when a concert is going on.

Good. The staff was kind and the rooms were nice. The sheets were kinda sctratchy tho. My big complaint is that at 11:45 at night, the lobby was blasting loud, booming music. My roommate went down to see what was going on, and the person who was running the lobby said O iM aBouT tO tUrN iT OfF. But otherwise a great experience.

Stood at the bar as two people were served in front of me, the bartender apologized then split and never returned. They have only a few drinks on the menu but apparently were overwhelmed by that fact. I'll never go here again, very disrespectful.

The bar manager Ally was extremely rude to my friends and I. When we arrived the bar was empty and she asked us to leave the bar area for other patrons with no explanation. She touched our belongings without permission and she also asked us to move our purses from bar stools. Again, bar was empty and she had no valid explanation. I will not be back to this location due to horrible customer service.
