Why it's on the list
The Waterproof pool on the 19th floor is a rooftop scene with a panoramic downtown view, loungers, and cabanas (21+ up top; a quieter pool downstairs). A restored 1950s landmark with the roof to match.
The stay
The Statler is the fun one — a restored 1950s modernist landmark on Main Street that reopened as a lively, entertainment-forward hotel, with the Waterproof rooftop pool and bar up top and more going on downstairs than most Dallas hotels bother with. You're in the walkable downtown core near the Joule and the Adolphus, easy to pair with the Arts District. At $$$ it's a strong value for how much personality you get — the pick if you want a downtown base with buzz, not a quiet retreat.
