Start your day with a coffee and pastry from the hotel café—fuel up for a morning of art, architecture, and a touch of Texas charm.

Just steps away across the street from the hotel, you’ll find two world-class museums:

The Kimbell Art Museum, home to timeless masterpieces in a serene, light-filled space

The Modern Art Museum, showcasing bold, contemporary works in a stunning building by Tadao Ando

Take your time exploring whichever speaks to you (or both, if you're feeling ambitious!).

When hunger strikes, head to Café Modern inside the museum for a light lunch with sweeping views of the reflecting pond and museum grounds.

Or, cruise over to Hudson House for oysters, martinis, and a stylish, coastal-inspired vibe!

Modern Art Museum

Housed in a stunning building designed by Tadao Ando, “The Modern” showcases an impressive collection of post–World War II art from iconic names like Warhol, Lichtenstein, and Kiefer. The serene reflecting pond and airy galleries make it a destination as visually inspiring as the art itself.

Kimbell Art Museum

Known for both its world-class collection and architectural significance (featuring designs by Louis Kahn and Renzo Piano), the Kimbell is home to rare works by Michelangelo, Caravaggio, Monet, and more. It’s the perfect blend of old masters and modern elegance.
