For the rate you pay here, it is an awesome hotel. Highlights: Friendly staff Great bar Quick, grab and go food 24 hours a day Nice sized room, with everything you need Note: Love the shampoo and body wash dispensers in the shower :-) Cant beat it......!!! read more

I stayed here with my son he goes to UTD. We like that it is close to great restaurant's. The manager was rude to us. I can't stand bad customer service because I work in the public. I called his boss twice. No response. Enough said. Delete read more

I spent a weekend her, and overall liked it. The staff was friendly, and the gym was nice. My room was facing the pool, which is apparently a hotspot with loud music on the weekends. I called the front desk, and they promptly moved me to another room no questions asked. I will definitely stay at Aloft again. read more

Elizabeth is absolutely amazing! Very attentive and makes an amazing old fashioned! Highly recommended - make sure to ask for her at the bar! read more

Aloft by Marriott Plano - Amazing! - Hotels Near Me - Plano, Texas

Mediocre property: anemic gym, slow elevators, minimal storage space (clothing), and convenient to nothing (you can't walk anywhere as the property is on the main highway). And what's with the complimentary coffee cutoff? This is supposed to be a hotel for working folks and supplying coffee around the clock is a small perk (pun intended) that costs virtually nothing. This place is hip. And hip is a poor excuse for substance. read more

What I was looking for: affordable trendy overnight stay before taking my mom to DFW airport. A room with 2 queen beds on my spg app came out to $77 with taxes. Location is great, near the legacy shops in Frisco, eating, drinking in the suburbs. The beds are okay. Don't stay for longer than 2 nights because your back will hate you. But you can't beat the price, the vibe, and the friendliness of the staff. It is completely non smoking (yay), you do not get breakfast or lobby coffee or anything, so don't expect it. But there is coffee in the room. Not packed tonight so no problem with noise. There is a bar downstairs that looks pretty cozy, in a modern minimalist kind of way. The bathroom is pretty small and darkened- with a severely muted overhead light. Do not stay here if you're claustrophobic, or afraid of dark places. Summary: This is the cadillac of motels. It lacks all the amenities that a hotel would have. It is bare bones, with nice decor, clean surroundings and helpful staff. Do not overpay for this place, have the right expectations, and you'll love your stay. read more

Tour guide sally says "Great little cafe, a pool table right by the bar and flat screens everywhere. And just out the front door are our friendly longhorns." Seriously. Loved the design and decor, everything was modern and fun. The staff were relaxed and sporting polos while pouring me an orange infused water. Normally I am a Marriott guy, but if i am back in the Plano area I will deviate for this cool Oasis of a hotel. Seriously, there were cattle next door. read more

There were a few things I liked about this hotel. Good location and the service was friendly enough. There were coffee pods in the room, (and therefore two outlets in the bathroom for my hair dryer and one for my hair straightener), a mini fridge, soap dispenser in the shower so nothing goes to waste. However, while I like the concept of the hotel is what I was looking for, it ends up feeling like a cheap version of the NYLO hotel. At the end of the day, I would just rather have stayed there. Again, 3 stars because there was nothing majorly wrong. Just that you can tell that some parts of the hotel were cheap and needed updating. read more

Great hotel. Small and quiet. Love the modern decor. We had issues with our shower door and bathroom door, which they were quick to fix and very accommodating. There is no room service, but there is a small "store" which has salads, salads, cereals, bagels, hummus. Fruits, and frozen and microwaved foods. Quite a large selection. The pool was FREEZING but the staff turned on the heater when we asked. (Who wants to swim in a 70 degree pool??) it took several hours for it to even come up a few degrees, thus the four stars instead of five. If you're going to have an outdoor only pool, it has to be comfortable enough for people to get in. read more

The service at the front desk was phenomenal, she went out of her way to find a room than met my specification, which was top floor so no one above and away from traffic. The room was nice, modern, big flat panel TV, raindrop shower head, mini fridge, lockbox, except the furniture placement was a little odd, not very efficient, and there was no closet, no drawer, just a big shelf with curtain and a hand full of of hangers, I requested a few more hangers and they were delivered in no time, I found the iron and ironing board hidden on the other side of the bed. Seems they only expect travelers to stay a night or two the most. The exercise equipments downstairs were new and clean, and they provide new headphones and plenty of towels, would be nice to have empty bottles for the water cooler. And beware of a bunch of giggling 12-13 yr old girls, perhaps future Brandi Chastain and Mia Hamm, having a mini soccer match in the exercise room, nothing like a big @ss exercise ball whacking you in the back when you're on the treadmill. The lounge/bar was cool, they have a pool table, and a pool outside in back, people tend to hangout next to the pool to smoke, I was on the fourth floor and I could still hear them until 1 am in the morning, there was no window, I guess the noise came in through the AC opening. Thursday night was the worst, since I had to get up early the next morning, wasn't so bad on Friday night, cuz I was down there with them. The grab and go was convenient, I had enough coupons for breakfast, baked goods, coffee, juices, and water for the entire time. FYI, the egg and sausage sandwiches are frozen, nuked to order. Wouldn't mind staying there again. read more

A clean, minimalist hotel. The room is VERY basic with little room for two people. This would be an excellent place for overnight business travelers. The bed is comfortable, the towels are too small and the TV programing is a pain. Parking is right next to the hotel with easy on and off for the highway. read more

No room service. Terrible food served at the bar in the lobby. To be more specific, I landed at 9pm on Sunday and ate "Chicken sliders" at the bar-- which were microwaved chicken nuggets on tiny buns. Really disappointing. For business travel, it stinks to stay at a place without room service. It's a strange choice for Aloft who is clearly targeting business travelers. I'm moving over to the NYLO hotel which isn't more expensive, and looks much nicer. With that said, if terrible food options are ok with you because you have business dinners to attend every night and breakfast out on site, then the room is pretty nice and so are the staff. read more

These a loft properties are very consistent with regards to room size and amenities. As a platinum member of spg you will get a breakfast included with your stay. The gym is ok and they even have a very nice pool and fire pit area. Bar is only open til midnight most nights read more

See all

Used Aloft Plano as the cheaper option for some of our wedding guests (and ourselves). The prices, room itself and location are good, but as far as choosing this place to block out rooms and book in bulk, meh, don't do it. I started off talking to Samantha and then she suddenly disappeared and her e-mails would bounce back. When I tried to contact Aloft to see who our new rep would be, it never goes through to a person directly and you'd have to wait on the phone for a really long time, often just leaving a voicemail anyways. Getting married in the area? Check out Marriott across the street at Legacy Town Center - they are AWESOME. Following our stay, we were sent a survey by corporate with these sentiments of our experience. No feedback or anything. Just come here if you're spending a quick night in the area - don't come here for the service. read more

Clean, comfortable, quiet and inexpensive. European feel to the rooms with a good use of space. The shampoo and shower gel in the shower is a big step above what you usually get in this price range. The bed comforter is a big plus compared to the typical blanket. read more

I stayed here recently while in town for a reunion (hosted at the hotel) as well as business travel the few days prior. I had stayed at an Aloft before, but really didn't have a chance to appreciate all it has to offer. Possibly one of the best features is the Green program, where you can skip having your room made up in return for a $5 voucher. I saved up two of these and had free breakfast on the third day! It's pretty much a grab and go counter, but I tend to travel with breakfast bars and other snacks, so the lack of a full restaurant didn't bother me. The pool was small but I had it to myself most days, so that didn't matter. The fitness room was WAY more than I expected! There was a location of my gym nearby but I never went because the hotel gym was so fully outfitted with cardio, weights, yoga mats and stability balls. The staff on duty (particularly Joseph at the front desk and the bartender) the night of our reunion were awesome. I don't think they had a clue how big our group was going to be (even though we told the sales person who booked our meeting room). They were very patient and accommodating even though we kept them hopping all night. Parking is just fine...plenty of spots. Most of the time, I parked in view of my room. A few times I was on the side of the building, but I was closer to my exit door then. Can't beat that for free parking. I would definitely stay at an Aloft again, and particularly, this one when in this part of town. It was a good value for the $. read more

The front desk staff here is incredibly unwelcoming. The hotel is filthy. The elevators are caked with grime and smell like cigarette smoke. With so many other options in the area, there is never a reason to stay at this dump. The condition of the hotel would never prompt me to leave such a dismal review, but the service will. I've stayed here twice, traveling to Plano regularly. I am a SPG/Marriott elite and stay roughly 200 nights per year at various properties across the US. This is quite possibly the least hospitable front desk service I have seen anywhere. Sometimes ambivalent, at times downright rude. During both of my stays, I felt as though the front desk could have cared less if I were there at best and generally just didn't want me to be there for the most part - Message received. read more

Very cool place with some interesting rooms. I love the eclectic, art-deco look and the pool table in the lobby. The large flat screens in the rooms were great, and the desks and beds were amazingly comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the amenities were great. The lobby has some very funky furniture and a great bar for those after meeting conversations. If you need a different, cool place to stay while you're in Plano then I'd definitely stay here. read more

Great service, friendly staff, modern decor and in the middle of cornfields, what's not to love ? Seriously, generous space for rooms, very updated and wired. Internet speed is great. read more

The hotel is nice and new. Rooms have no tubs. Honestly not very homey a bit depressing. The bar at this one is totally dead. Pool looks like an after thought which is a shame. Gym is really decent Staff friendly. Like their Green program dont use maids get a 5 buck voucher. Wifi fast and free. read more

Aloft by Marriott Plano - room desk - Hotels Near Me - Plano, Texas

Whoa. Someone said ikea went nuts on this place, they were right. Cool looking at first, noisy at night with paper thin walls. I was not on my own dime here, otherwise I might have felt I overpaid. The rooms were fairly small but adequate for one person, two might have actually been a bit crowded. Odd design and the lack of a fullsize ironing board make this a tough one for business travelers. Overall, it's probably on par with the options in the area. The morning breakfast options could use a lot of work, seeing as there isn't much within walking distance otherwise. read more

I liked it. I liked the colors, the logo, the interior design. The rates were extremely reasonable, too. It is a very nice change from most other hotels and if I am needing overnight accommodations again in Plano, this will be my first choice. read more

On star for lying to me. So i have stayed at this hotel before, when we got to our room i noticed right away that is want a regular room but a wheel chair accessible room. I was good with that minus the shower, it felt a lil odd. We went downstairs to ask for another room. I told the girl my concerns and asked for a new room. Mind you i would have been okay with a double bed or being told they were booked but it doesn't hurt to ask. The girl immediately understood and went to the manager, Less then a minute later me response is "ah, I've been here forever and is embarrassing to say but i never knew , all rooms are like that"....... so your decision is to lie to me. To me that is worse then anything that could have happened and i won't ever be spending my hard earned money on this establishment again. I'm still so disappointed. read more

Aloft by Marriott Plano - According to the receptionist this is what you get - Hotels Near Me - Plano, Texas

During a two weeks stay at aLoft, I have many good things to say about the hotel, and very few that are not so good. The location is very convenient, near Shops at Legacy and several corporate offices in Plano, and a short ride to downtown Dallas or the Fort Worth airport. The rooms are really good. After getting used to a very particular open concept bathroom and common space for clothes, security box, coffee machine, fridge and everything together, you actually have no problem having everything a little bit too close together. Even so, having an actual closet or separate space for non-bathroom aspects would be a nice to have. The service in general is really good, the staff is super friendly and proactive, the lobby and shared spaces are comfortable and nice. The bar is good and the mini market at the front is pretty complete for snacks or quick meals. Nice gym, nice open space with pool outside. Only con here would be the aisle to go to first floor rooms, which is completely freezing even without being in winter. It's a short but hard walk to your room. For the rest of it, totally recommended. And a HUGE PRO, at least from my point of view, it's a pet friendly hotel! Awesome! read more

How can you give them anything less than 5+ stars. Above and beyond friendly service. Fast easy checkin. Very pet friendly and pet understanding. Nice clean and modern facilities. Walking distance from Dart stop. Close to everything in DFW /PLANO. Cant ask for anything else. I highly recommend and will most definitely stay again. Amanda thank you for making this stay so wonderful you were so helpful. read more

I am writing this review on the final night of our stay in Aloft Plano. It is a great hotel to bring dogs to, as they are super dog friendly, and we brought our 3 little dogs with us from Houston. We were in Dallas on a business trip, and heard that Aloft was a great hotel for the price. Pros: Decent food selection, excellent bar area, good room size, great shower, super dog friendly, majority of staff was very friendly. Cons: Would like the coffee to be out longer than 10AM. Also, the bartender on Friday night, a 30 something blonde bartender gave below average service for a W or Aloft hotel. Front Desk attendant told my wife that she couln't use the meeting room even though it was not in use by another person (around 11AM on Wednesday). Overall, I would stay in an Aloft hotel again. I have visited W Hotels in Seoul, Korea, Austin, Texas, Miami, Florida, Chicago, Illinois, Dallas, Texas, and a few other cities, and visited Aloft Hotels in many more. This hotel had the usual Aloft design and feel, which is great for couples in my wife and I's age group. The service, as I mentioned earlier was great. My favorite Aloft is the one in Austin, as well as the W Hotel there. I look forward to visting Aloft or W in a future city. read more

I stayed here on business last week. I was pleasantly surprised by the modernness. I was not expecting this type of atmosphere. I've never stayed in a place that had soap dispensers in the shower. ( I don't travel a lot) Great idea. The pool was nice, the workout room was great, the set up of the room was unique, the room was clean, loved the artwork. I really liked, although unnecessary and unexpected, how tidy housekeeping organized my makeup and other toiletries. If ever in Plano again, I would absolutely stay here. There wouldn't be any need to look for anywhere else to stay. read more

Beautiful Hotel - Spacious (Clean) Rooms - Comfy Beds - Accommodating Staff... I'm not sure I could have asked for more with as cheap as it was. This was my first stay with Aloft Hotels and I must say that I was pleasantly surprised. I am a Starwood Preferred Guest and chose this hotel because of the points system that they offer - and the fact that they are VERY pet friendly. I booked this hotel for 2 nights which was approximately $200 + taxes. My husband and I both enjoyed the bed and the softness of the pillows, the rooms were large enough, and very clean. The hotel has a very up-to date modern and almost art deco feel - there was a bar in the lobby, pool table, and a "shop" that offered drinks and snacks. The hotel was very accommodating towards my husband and I as we were (extremely) late arrivals and late checkout. The only reason why I docked one star is because were traveling with a family member from Saudi Arabia and he also requested a late check out and the lady at the front desk allowed for him to also have a late checkout but acted as if it was a major inconvenience. Outside of that my stay was fantastic. read more

I really like this place. It has a very Northern European flavor to it...Furnishings, service, decor...evident the moment I entered the lobby. As you read other reviews, recognize that this may not fit with many American's taste or expectations: the room was somewhat small and spartan by US standards. Yet the furnishings are highly functional, the room quiet, bed very comfortable, and the housekeeping impeccable. If you are a fan of IKEA furnishings, you will feel right at home. (Speaking of: there is an IKEA store nearby) Even the parking lot paving looks European. Pluses: -Clean, minimalist, European modern decor. -Lovely strong European Coffee in lobby. -Green: Vouchers if you forgo housekeeping, recycle bin in room, body wash & shampoo dispensers in shower. -wifi was fast enough to stream video without buffering...wonder if this is upgraded after review saying otherwise. -No wait for hot water. Minuses: -No microwave oven in room. -The 'fridge is a TE type, so no freezer compartment, but large internal volume. Almost cool enough, but at least you needn't worry about freezing your lettuce...but no frozen fruit for my smoothies. -if you want ice, it's in the lobby. It would be nice if there was something to tell me this so I didn't wander the halls in vain. Note that I consider these minor, and more so if you are not trying to eat kosher/halal/vegan/vegetarian. read more

I can't say enough about this place. I travel a lot for work and continue to stay here because of the incredible service. Jessica, Krystina, and Bri are consistently attentive and helpful. The rooms are surprisingly comfortable and the hotel itself is easy to get to. As long as I travel to Plano, I will continue to stay at Aloft. read more

Cool place, and caters to pet owners. Small but stylish - very nice for the price.

Aloft Plano is a cool hotel concept. The check-in was a simple process. As we walked in we noticed how guests were hanging out in the lobby. They looked like they were enjoying themselves. They have board games, a bar, and snack bar. The rooms were clean and chic. I don't know why Robert G. had so much to complain about. I liked the minimalist idea of a room hence the "loft" in the name of the hotel name. Personally, I had a great experience with Aloft Plano. read more

This was my first stay at an Aloft and I wasn't very impressed. It seems like the brand is trying to be hip and boutique, but really it is more Ikea-esqe. Though less functional and comfortable than Ikea. I noticed the floor in my room wasn't very clean and the wall had smudges on it. The mattress was thin and hard. My colleagues told me they didn't have hot water, but thankfully I didn't have to experience that. They didn't email me my folio as requested. Bar food wasn't that great, but I didn't expect it to be. The wine glass was smudgy, and didn't appear very clean. Next time, I'll pass on this property. read more

Bar area and service was good. Bed was comfy enough. Room was clean. I prefer the faux wood floors compared to carpet most hotels have. More sanitary in my opinion. Walls were super thin. Heard every door opening, every conversation in hallway, even heard the room next door closing their window shades. Heard a tapping outside room but never descerned it to be our room. Moments later housekeeping let themselves in our room at 9:30am. We hadn't checked out and checkout time is Noon. This was a bit unacceptable but when they came back at 10 and did it again I had to tell her not to return until Noon. Given the noise and this issue I wouldn't recommend this hotel. read more

No communication whatsoever that they oversold and had to move me to another hotel. Make sure to add your Marriot number beforehand or be ready to be treated like a second class citizen. 2 stars because they did comp the room, but I'm too tired to care, no more aloft hotels in my future. read more

The Aloft is a good place to stay if you want a place that's clean and modern but don't care too much about a comfortable bed or taking a shower without getting the floor OUTSIDE of the shower totally wet. Huh, you ask? This is something I just can't wrap my head around. The shower door is not sealed in any way around the frame. There is a gap on the sides and bottom of the shower door, so water gets out onto the floor, soaking your bath mat. I don't understand... who wants to step out of a shower onto a soaked towel? And it's not just a regular floor, it's tiled so there's water in between the tiles in the grout. I hate the bathroom floors at this hotel. I already don't like walking barefoot in any hotel room (because you just never know what people have done in there or if they had athlete's foot or something) but having this sort of tile makes it even worse. Ok... I'm starting to sound a bit neurotic now. Back to the wet floors. I had to use additional towels every time we took showers to soak up all the water on the floor. Even with pointing the shower head down and in towards the wall as far as it would go, and trying not to splash any water near the door, it got totally wet outside the shower. WTF?!?!?!?! Oh, and the drain inside the shower looks like you're in some public bathroom or something, not in a private hotel room shower. Just sayin... These beds are not comfy at all, and the pillows are even worse. We spent 3 nights here and I didn't get a single night of decent sleep. I woke up with a stiff neck and shoulders each morning. They don't have any sort of complimentary breakfast. They have an area downstairs in the lobby where you can get some drinks and snacks. Definitely not the place for a romantic getaway. More of business trip stay kind of place. Definitely not a place for me. read more

Very modern and eclectic vibe. Quickest check-in ever. Staff was friendly. My room was very spacious with large beds. The beds were very comfortable and had a nice view from the mounted flat screen.The bathroom was spacious as well with awesome shower. I love that they use soap dispensers in the showers instead of the thin bar soap. They have a little store/breakfast area downstairs which is surprisingly reasonably priced for a hotel. The only con I had was the location. It is off the highway surrounded by tall office buildings. There are no restaurants or gas stations close so you have to travel 10-20 mins to get food. I knew this beforehand but it didn't bother me until I actually got there lol Overall I had a nice stay and the staff were professional and welcoming. I prefer NYLO which is similar in style. But not to forget I paid $75 w/taxes(hotels.com)which was a steal for 2 queens! read more

This was my first time here and I loved the very modern and upscale look. The room was very updated and had a nice 42" plasma. I definitely felt as if I never left Silicon Valley and I love all of the touches. It definitely looks like a loft but very classy. The only reason that I didn't give it 5 stars is because it doesn't come with a complimentary breakfast. They have a few over priced snacks and what not. The bar and pool table are very nice. I will deinfitely be back next time I'm in Plano. read more

The style of this hotel is hip and contemporary but the wine list leaves something to be desired. I've never in my life paid $10 for a glass of Cooks champagne. Ew. I couldn't even drink it, but by the glass it was all they had. read more

Stayed here in a date night with my husband, for the price you can't go wrong. They thought everything out and you can tell.
