Dallas, United States Harwood Hospitality Group Full time
Who We Are

Harwood Hospitality Group, Dallas' premier Hospitality owner-operator, introduces its most complete expression of a multi-generational vision in Harwood District's first hotel, Htel Swexan.

The hotel is a new destination, with an uncompromising mission that values experience above all. It is a place like no other that draws inspiration from the world's greatest cities - New York, London, and Paris - together in one location to create something completely new. Local expertise with an international influence. Classic and contemporary, the hotel is a twist on conventions.

Part collection, part creativity, and always elegant. Guests stay to get lost - in culture and conversation. The hotel is a world of its own, a meeting place, a hideaway, and a stomping ground. For celebration or solitude.

Designed with all generations in mind, Harwood District's hotel plays host to an eclectic mix of personalities. It is a timeless setting where locals mix with out-of-towners and old souls and encounter the young at heart.

Intimate, immersive, and transportive. Htel Swexan has a surprise around every corner. Forget, for a second, where you came from, and leave with a memory that keeps you coming back.

Our Concepts Include:

Stillwell's

Inspired by deep Texan roots and featuring beef from the in-house HWD Beef program, Stillwell's is the hotel's signature, classic steakhouse with a modern twist. Oenophiles will be impressed by the first-rate wine list featuring rare and hard-to-find wines from around the world. Stillwell's is located on the seventh floor and open to both guests of the hotel and visitors.

Stillwell's is open to the public.

Babou's

After hours, the late-night lounge comes to life. Located on the lower level, Babou's is a hideaway night club featuring a lively dance floor and intimate nooks for a rambunctious audience. Open to both guests and visitors, every night is a show, and the scores of merrymakers are the headlining act. Right next door just a bookcase away, The Library at Babou's is a prelude to a night of revelry. Sip on crafted cocktails and sink into the cozy furniture while surrounded by the words of the literary greats.

Babou's is open to the public.

Isabelle's

Located on the lobby level and inspired by the sidewalk cafes of Europe, guests at Isabelle's can enjoy continental breakfast options or a light lunch. In the evening, Isabelle's showcases classic martinis from around the world.

Isabelle's is open to the public.

Pomelo

Pomelo is the hotel's rooftop pool bar, inspired by the divine silhouettes of the Mediterranean. Hotel guests only can lounge the day away poolside or enjoy a cabana-side cocktail in the company of the unmistakable Texas sunset.

Pomelo is open for hotel guests only.

Leonie

Resting high above the Harwood District, Lonie is the crowning jewel of Htel Swexan. She is calming and awe-inspiring all at once. Lonie is a gentle nod to the past, with her own creative flair that is both timeless and unique. We invite you to indulge in the romance of a sunlit, rosy room beneath an emerald canopy that transforms slowly from morning to noon then night.

Leonie is open for hotel guests only.
