Best Hotels With a Restaurant in North Richland Hills

Eating without a car near the tracks

Both Hyatt Place Fort Worth/Hurst and Candlewood Suites DFW West - Hurst sit within a nine-minute taxi of Trinity Lakes Station, each pairing a restaurant or bar with the kind of late hours a TEXRail arrival actually needs. Hyatt Place runs a coffee-and-cocktail bar alongside its restaurant tag, while Candlewood Suites backs its bar with an in-suite kitchen, giving a traveler two different ways to eat without leaving the property after a train ride in from Fort Worth or DFW Airport. Both also carry free parking, useful if a car sits idle while the train does the work.

La Quinta Inn & Suites DFW Airport West-Glade and La Quinta Inn & Suites Fort Worth NE Mall both carry a restaurant and bar tag alongside free breakfast, useful for a trip that starts early and ends late. The Glade property sits nine minutes by taxi from Grapevine Vintage Railroad, a different rail line than TEXRail but still evidence of how thoroughly this corridor was built around getting somewhere by track; the NE Mall property is seven minutes from Trinity Lakes Station itself, the shortest ride of any hotel on this list.

Hilton Garden Inn Dallas at Hurst Conference Center connects its dining room directly to a conference center, eight minutes by taxi from Trinity Lakes Station, aimed at business travelers who want a meal without leaving the building between meetings. Holiday Inn Fort Worth - Alliance and Four Points by Sheraton Fort Worth North both run a straightforward bar-and-restaurant combination, the Holiday Inn adding room service on top, priced at $66 and $87 a night respectively, neither one tied closely to the station itself but both within reach of Fort Worth's northern edge.

Radisson Hotel Fort Worth North-Fossil Creek closes out the list with the most nightlife-leaning restaurant of the group, a dining room paired with a nightclub and room service, nine minutes by taxi from Fort Worth Stockyards. At $63 a night it is one of the cheaper options here, proof that the restaurant tag on this corridor is not reserved for the pricier end of the list, and that a livelier evening does not have to cost more than a quiet one back near the platform, spa and hot tub included for the morning after.

This corridor grew up around freeway exits and airport traffic rather than a main street, so hotel restaurants here function as the neighborhood's actual dining scene for anyone without a car. Fort Worth Stockyards and downtown proper sit a real drive away, which is why a property like Radisson leans into its own nightclub and dining room rather than pointing guests toward a walkable strip that does not exist nearby. The result favors travelers who plan to eat close to where they sleep.
