      HOTEL ZAZA

      Looking for a cutting edge getaway? One of a small Texas-based chain of boutique hotels, Hotel ZaZa brings a dose of over-the-top Mediterranean glamour to uptown Dallas. From the lobby's crystal chandeliers to the guest rooms' rain showers and nearly Olympic-sized tubs, this is one place where big is definitely better. The pool lounge is known for prime celeb spotting, but if you really want to live the high life, reserve one of seven fit-for-a king residential suites.
