FORT WORTH, TX (July 10, 2023) – The Crescent Hotel, Fort Worth – the Cultural District’s first luxury property – debuting in late summer 2023, will welcome guests with its sense of community and invite them to discover all the neighborhood has to offer. The hotel is the newest project in Crescent Real Estate’s platinum portfolio of properties. Inspired by Fort Worth’s surrounding world-class museums and historic neighborhoods, The Crescent Hotel mirrors the unique history, diversity and character of the city.
“Rising at the cultural crossroads of a vibrant downtown and the surrounding neighborhoods, The Crescent Hotel will deliver a local experience,” said owner, John Goff. “From thoughtful on-property programming and culinary experiences and partnerships with renowned local museums and attractions to a curated art program inspired by international as well as local artists, the hotel experience will serve as Fort Worth’s living room – an extension of the inspired surrounding areas.”
Conveniently located steps from Fort Worth’s top destinations like The Modern Art Museum, Dickies Arena, and the Kimbell Art Museum, the hotel was designed at five stories by OZ Architecture to blend seamlessly into the noted Cultural District, with interiors designed by Rottet Studio. The authentic, natural materials used throughout the space – including a balanced marriage of stone, wood, metal, concrete, and locally sourced brick – are thoughtfully positioned to create a tangible sense of place from the moment guests arrive. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide a clear view of the lush courtyard oasis and fill the lobby with natural light that lends to its striking ambiance.
The hotel will feature 200 masterfully crafted guestrooms including 12 luxury suites. Simple elegance and comfort are at the forefront of each room’s design, from the rich marble accents to the refined décor. Guestrooms feature local artwork, mini bars, lounge seating and an ample workstation.
Guests and locals will enjoy dynamic dining experiences from morning to evening including upscale Mediterranean restaurant, Emelia’s, partnering with Fort Worth’s top purveyors and local farms, and an extended fine dining offering – Blue Room at Emelia’s. The main dining room’s refreshing ambiance and energy, brought to life by AvroKO Hospitality Group, serves as the inviting backdrop to relish in the light, bright flavors of each dish thoughtfully developed by the restaurant’s talented Executive Chef, Preston Paine of Food Network’s “Ciao House.” The hotel’s lobby bar, The Circle Bar, champions the Mediterranean mood and mindset by seamlessly transitioning from day to night. From morning espressos to afternoon aperitivos and a rich variety of cocktails, wines, and bites from Emelia’s menu into the evening, The Circle Bar will be the welcoming social center of the hotel. Finally, The Crescent Hotel’s exclusive rooftop bar will stun, with panoramic views of Fort Worth and craft cocktails curated by expert mixologists.
The Crescent Hotel will boast more than 14,000 square feet of special event space across 10 unique venues, featuring a mix of indoor and outdoor spaces, each complete with state-of-the-art technology. “The hotel’s 8,000-square-foot courtyard will serve as the heart of the community with a custom climate-controlled tent for year-round memorable events, weddings and celebrations, while The Grand Ballroom with floor-to-ceiling glass doors creates a space flooded with natural light and indoor-outdoor possibilities,” said General Manager, Robert Rechtermann.
The Canyon Ranch Wellness Club, which will open Oct. 2023, will create a nurturing haven for a well-balanced lifestyle. Hotel guests will have access to the state-of-the-art fitness center and the renowned spa, which will feature 10 treatment rooms and a salon.
