Courtyard by Marriott Dallas Plano Parkway at Preston Road
About this hotel
This is the furthest-out property in the cluster, roughly nine miles from the historic Allen station site, and makes the most sense for travelers whose plans are genuinely centered on Plano's Preston Road corridor rather than Allen. The on-site American restaurant covers meals without a drive back toward Allen, and free parking and WiFi hold steady even at this distance, confirming the free-parking standard across the wider corridor. The outdoor pool rounds out a fairly standard, dependable Courtyard property built more for business travelers and Plano-based visitors than for anyone chasing the historic Allen corridor specifically. Marriott loyalty members will also find the standard Courtyard points-earning structure applies here just as it would at any other property in the brand's portfolio.
