Activity Calendar.

We plan in-house group activities so you don’t have to! Join fellow travelers for our Sangria Social Hour, live music events, or mixology classes, where your attendance is wholly voluntary. Looking for some solitude in your sojourning? We also provide a bespoke city guide written by locals, describing our favorite nook bars and TexMex restaurants. For an entirely customized activity schedule just stop by the SOVA bar and chat up one of our travel guides.

Convenient Location.

We love walkability. So, setting walkability as a goal, we spent over 6 months touring every available location in Dallas to try and find the best location so you can sleep where you want to spend your time. We are walking distance to Deep Ellum, Downtown, and Farmers Market. This gives you walking access to dozens of bars and restaurants, to urban features like AT&T Discovery Plaza, Majestic Theater, and Klyde Warren Park, and to the local greenery and freshness in Farmers Market.

High-End Furnishings.

SOVA was created after the design team visited just under 50 countries and compiled the best and most unique features from around the world.

After you are done exploring the city, come back and indulge in our luxury grade mattresses, 7-foot-high SOVA Monsoon showers, free blazing fast WiFi networks, and even our cutting-edge Japanese robotic toilets, and more. We even purchased custom furniture to fill our rooms and public areas, because let’s face it: you’re worth it. To sum up: our team combined 50 countries’ worth of global travel experiences and distilled it into the details you see at SOVA. Discover every bit of it today.

What does this mean? Find out by lounging in our cozy, 15-person speakeasy (click here!), or have an internationally-inspired cocktail at our bar downstairs. Subtle, modern, and convenient, the attention to detail that we dedicated to our amenity options resulted in a visitor experience that is unique to our Dallas boutique hotel.

Co-Founders (Also Twins)

Our inspiration to create SOVA came from our own passion for travel and adventure. After being shown excellent hospitality in over 40 countries, we are excited to pass it along to our guests. We set out to create a hotel experience in Dallas that is unlike any other – an experience that is focused on you. 

We brought the best aspects of our global adventures and optimized them, outfitting them for the Dallas scene. Our luxurious micro-rooms incorporate elements from all over the planet. Our carefully considered public spaces put a strong emphasis on community and meeting new people. People are our focus, so we want SOVA to not just be comfortable, but fun.

There is a story and a person behind every aspect in SOVA from the furniture to the coffee. Ask us about the names and faces that have made SOVA a reality!

We are so excited to host you here in Dallas, our home city. We look forward to showing you around and letting you discover all of the amazing adventures Dallas has to offer. Our goal is to make your stay as memorable as possible, so please let us know if there’s anything we can do to enhance your visit.

We hope to see you soon.

SOVA Amenities.

In an effort to make your stay at SOVA as unique and memorable as possible, we have specially developed a set of globally-inspired amenities that brings pieces of every corner of the globe to your Dallas travel experience.

Sangria Social Hour: Be transported to the beaches of Spain with our signature SOVA Sangria! Every evening, meet new travelers and enjoy a delicious, complimentary glass of sangria.

Travel Guides: We like to call our front desk bartenders “Travel Guides”. They live in Dallas and know where all of the fun is at! Take a seat at the bar, grab a drink, and chat with one of them. We love making friends with our guests and giving tips for things to do nearby!
 

WiFi: Buckle up your seatbelt when logging into the SOVA Wifi. Several guests have already been arrested for speeding when surfing the web on our waves. Our Wifi is fast and free and we hope you finish your Netflix series on it. The SOVA team knows that sometimes you just want to spend the evening under a cozy blanket watching your favorite show.

Showers: Shout out to individuals over six feet tall… Tired of hitting your head on outdated 19th-century showers? Our SOVA Monsoon showers are seven feet high and were designed to feel like the heavens opened up on a warm afternoon.

Bespoke Furniture: Some call it “custom,” but we prefer the term “bespoke.” Mostly because it sounds fancier. But yes, we have custom furniture. It is special, just like you!

Toilets: There might be more technology in our toilets than in our founder Blake’s Jetta. In 1992, Japan graced the world with the most advanced robotic toilets humanity had ever seen. We selected a model that includes drying, heated seats, night lights, and adjustable water temperature. Enjoy getting spoiled with a new level of hygiene and cleanliness. Once you use an electronic bidet, your life will never be the same.

SOVA Bar: Have a drink from our menu, which offers some of our favorite local brews, as well as some top international cocktail recipes from our favorite countries! Take a seat at our community tables and get to know your fellow travelers before hitting the town!

Speakeasy: try to find the most hidden speakeasy in Dallas… Room 520 is a cozy lounge that lends itself to conversation. With only 15 available seats, we highly recommend making a reservation. We invite you to unwind, enjoy our seasonal cocktails, and join our vibrant community.

However you decide to spend your visit to Dallas, we hope it’s memorable. We can’t wait to welcome you here with open arms and show you around our beautiful city.
