Getting around from Hyatt Regency Dallas: transit, walking and local tips
Hyatt Regency Dallas (300 Reunion Blvd) sits in downtown Dallas directly connected to Reunion Tower and an underground concourse to Union Station, so public transit, walking to central attractions, and short rides to local airports are all easy. For airport travel use Dallas Love Field (closest) or DFW via DART rail connections at Union Station; downtown attractions like Dealey Plaza, the Sixth Floor Museum and the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center are all walkable.

Getting to and from the airports
Dallas Love Field (DAL) is the closest airport to Hyatt Regency Dallas and is typically a 10–15 minute drive; taxis and ride-hail services are common. Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) is the larger regional airport and is generally reached by car in about 15–20 minutes in light traffic, though times vary with traffic.
Public transit to/from DFW is possible using DART light rail (Orange Line) with a transfer to reach Union Station beneath the hotel; check schedules and fares before travel. If you prefer private transfer, taxis and app-based ride services operate from both airports to downtown hotels.
- Closest: Dallas Love Field (DAL) — short drive (10–15 min typical).
- DFW — reachable by car (15–20 min in good traffic) or via DART rail connections to Union Station.

Using Union Station and DART light rail
Hyatt Regency Dallas connects to Dallas Union Station via an underground concourse; Union Station is a hub for DART light rail (Red and Blue lines), the Trinity Railway Express (TRE) commuter rail and Amtrak. That makes the hotel a convenient base for rail travel across Dallas and to nearby cities.
The Dallas Streetcar terminates at Union Station as well, and regional buses and some intercity bus services stop nearby. For light-rail trips around town, purchase a DART pass or fare card and check route maps and timetables before you go.

- Union Station is directly connected underground to the hotel — you can reach transit without going outside in many cases.
- Use DART schedules and pass options for single trips or multi-day passes.
