Sleeping
Budget motels cluster near highway inter-changes and along the Jacksboro Hwy (Hwy
199), northwest of downtown. You'll find decent chains along S University Dr, near the
Cultural District. Staying near the Stockyards puts you close to the fun night and day.

Hotel Texas
( 817-624-2224; 2415 Ellis Ave; r $90-100; )
This 1939 'cattleman's home away from
home' is a good deal, smack in the center of the Stockyards action. It's a real find, with
simple, clean rooms decorated with framed Western art.

A retro vibe
pervades this surprisingly stylish hotel, 1 mile southwest of downtown. The 132 rooms are
spread across three floors. Guests receive a full breakfast and there's a shuttle to nearby
attractions.
Miss Molly's Hotel
( 817-626-1522;

;
109 W Exchange Ave; r incl breakfast $100-175; )
Set in
the heart of the Stockyards, eight-room Miss Molly's occupies a former bordello. Its heav-
ily atmospheric vibe will feel authentic to some (Miss Josie's room still looks like a bor-
dello), eerie to others (they say it's haunted...), but probably at least a little charming
either way. Look for cheap deals during the week - as low as $50.
