The Highland Dallas is the inaugural member of the Hilton's Curio Collection.
DALLAS—The Dallas Hilton Inn opened in 1967 with a private 10th floor nightclub with a view of the growing skyline and a Trader Vic's restaurant in the north wing. The location, 5300 E. Mockingbird Lane, at the crossing of Central Expressway and Mockingbird Lane had access to downtown and Dallas Love Field Airport.
It was a favorite with the well heeled in Dallas. With the palm-tree framed courtyard surrounding the swimming pool and celebrity sightings, it was the place to stay. However, some concepts of the 1960s stayed in vogue and some were not so lucky. By the late 1980s, the Dallas Hilton Inn was not part of the Hilton chain and closed in 1991.
