My wife and i expected the hotel and the room to be nice from the booking site; however what pictures and booking descriptions can’t quite capture is all the people and the accommodations that far exceeded our expectations. The hotel is located on the brick paved Main Street in Fort Worth across from the Capital Grille and Ruth’s Chris. It’s a historical 24 floor landmark building with a beautiful exterior and while renovated inside, maintains the character of the expert craftsmanship and beauty of the original building. The hotel lobby or checkin is on the 24th floor and provides spectacular views of the city. It’s quite breathtaking. There is comfy and stylish seating in the event that you have to wait for a room and where you can grab a bite or a cocktail in the adjacent bar with a bartender who is warm and friendly. Sean checked us in and you immediately Feel welcome similar to how you’d feel visiting friends. Sean notified us that our room from upgraded from a standard King to a beautiful 650sq foot suite on the 23rd floor. Sean noticed that the upgraded room, while ready, was near an elevator and below the lobby and might be noisier than we’d prefer and accommodated us with an equally beautiful room with a breathtaking view of the city and the beautiful Texas skyline. He gave us complimentary water and beer while we waited and had our room prepared and quality checked before we could finish our drinks. 🍺 The room was conveniently located close enough to the elevator and was perfect for my wife and I. The decor was so stylish and contemporary that we research many of the items to bring in similar ideas to our home in California. Everything was well thought-from the wall decor and comfortable bed and sofa, to the work space and televisions in each room that allow you to stream all of your favorite movies and shows directly from your phone at no cost. The minibar was well stocked, the in-room dining robust and covered much of anything you’d want during your stay. The hotel stocks many amenities that you may need and that they loan or sell including a nespresso coffee machine upon request. We didn’t eat at the Refinery 714 Bar and restaurant however we did eat breakfast and dinner at Il Modo. Josh delighted us breakfast each morning and Patrick made our dinner even more warm and romantic with very attentive service. We loved the hotel and the people so much that we decided to come back to celebrate our birthdays in December—not for the city or anything in Fort Worth or Texas per se, rather solely for the extraordinary service and amenities this downtown gem provides. Sean, Josh, Patrick and all the wonderful people including the valet—many thanks for turning a business trip with my wife, a relaxing and romantic getaway. PS, while we didn’t have pets, the hotel is very accommodating to pets and we saw several cuties during our stay.
We always love our stays at the Harper-the service is excellent, the rooms are lovely and spotless, the social hour and coffee service are superb, and the valet service was fast and reliable. A special shout out to Stephen M at the concierge desk. Lou is an Inner Circle member -Stephen looked him up online and recognized him when we arrived-a first in our very numerous stays at Kimptons! It made us feel very special. We love Fort Worth and look forward to staying at the Harper again. Beverly Milam and Louis Cusimano
