Owned by family and led by women, this stunning boutique values edgy sophistication over traditional tea and doilies. 

What it's like

This is not your grandma's bed and breakfast. As you step through the door of this craftsman bungalow, you'll be struck by the sophisticated design – contemporary but honoring the house’s heritage. Moody wallpaper is paired with traditional crown molding, textures like marble, brass and brick are balanced by plush velvet, buttery leather, and live plants – the effect is both striking and inviting. As a female-run business, the property was designed by Liz Gibson. Her mother, Maureene, runs the day-to-day operations of the property – you'll get to know and love her throughout your stay. 

Independent spirit

Family-owned + female-operated = killer hospitality. 

Small touches

Each of The Gaston's five suites is unique and inspired by a different element of Dallas's history including Bonnie & Clyde, JFK, and the Texas State Fair. Unlike some B&Bs, each room has its own en suite bathroom. And just like the rest of this property, even the bathrooms are expertly designed and rich with amenities. Sleep well on plush mattresses from Brooklyn Bedding,  luxury linens, and in-room heat and air conditioning controls. Fast free Wi-Fi and Smart TVs keep you as connected as you'd like to be. 

Eat and drink

The Gaston Speakeasy is a prohibition-inspired lounge, where you can step behind the bar to craft your own cocktails. There isn't a bartender on staff, but the “honesty bar” is stocked with popular mixes and libations for you to enjoy.  Complimentary breakfast is served daily in The Gaston Speakeasy. On weekdays, guests enjoy a continental-style breakfast with tasty options like pastries and croissants, fresh fruit, and yogurt. For weekend mornings, don't miss the home-cooked breakfast alongside the continental offerings.
