Located just east of Downtown, the historic Corinthian offers rich old-world charm mixed with luxurious service. As one local travel blog notes, it’s a “lovely” Dallas home near Deep Ellum that has several suite options and common areas to relax and unwind.  The innkeeper here really spoils couples: you can arrange limousine rides, in-room massages, fresh flowers, dinner reservations or even spa visits – literally everything is on offer . Guests rave that it was named one of Dallas’s “most romantic” hotels. Despite the pampering, nightly rates are reasonable (around \$150–\$220 ), making the Corinthian a superb value for a romantic splurge.

The Gaston is tucked into Old East Dallas in a restored 1912 craftsman bungalow. It’s a “bespoke” boutique inn with five uniquely styled guest suites, a hidden speakeasy lounge and cozy common rooms . The décor mixes vintage wood and fireplaces with contemporary comfort – think lofty ceilings, polished floors and king-size beds. Couples love starting their day with the Gaston’s gourmet breakfast, then unwinding in the evenings at the on-site cocktail bar. As one travel guide describes, you can enjoy a luxurious king bed and updated bathroom fittings, and then sip a nightcap in the sleek cocktail lounge . With its garden and elegant gathering spaces, The Gaston feels like a private romantic retreat right in the city .

Outside Dallas, McKinney’s Neathery Estate turns a historic inn into a resort-like hideaway. This centuryold home has been restored top-to-bottom, and couples consistently praise its “Southern hospitality”. Highlights include a private salt-water swimming pool surrounded by flower gardens. They even supply oversized towels, plush robes, and mixers so you can mix cocktails poolside – truly a resort vibe in smalltown North Texas . After a swim, guests wake up to a country-style breakfast featuring the freshest eggs (often from the inn’s own hens!). No wonder it’s been voted McKinney’s #1 hotel for years running . All these perks come at a reasonable price, making the Neathery Estate a wonderfully indulgent yet affordable option for a romantic weekend.

Slightly northeast of Dallas lies The Oaks, a quaint 1937 home turned B&B in Sulphur Springs. With only three guest rooms, it feels very private. Each room has its own private bathroom and charming antiques-style décor – in fact, the owner used local antique dealers to furnish the suites . One room even has a second-story balcony perfect for sipping coffee as the morning sun rises. Guests describe The Oaks as relaxing and beautifully maintained; breakfast is made fresh each day in the country kitchen. The atmosphere is serene and homey, and nightly rates undercut many city hotels. For a genuine country romance – imagine porch swings, homemade biscuits and privacy – The Oaks is a delightful budget choice in North Texas. 2 3 2 4 5 6 2

Morning light on the front porch at The Virginia May, where couples can relax with coffee before breakfast arrives. The Virginia May is a romantic getaway in the woods just 25 minutes from downtown Fort Worth. Rather than one big house, this B&B offers two private cottages on a wooded half-acre by Eagle Mountain Lake . You can pick a cozy one-bedroom cottage or a larger two-bedroom cottage (both have a kitchenette and living/dining space). Each morning a homemade breakfast is delivered right to your door – perfect for lingering over pancakes on the porch. In the evenings, couples can unwind in the hot tub cabana, a secluded little pool house on the grounds . The owners even offer extras like charcuterie boards and wine for porch-side picnics. With winter weekday rates around \$169–\$199 , it’s an especially good deal for a private cabin escape, giving you lake-side tranquility and B&B service in one package. 7 7 8 3

Colorful cabins at the Old Irish Inn, a quiet alpaca ranch retreat near Denton. For something a bit different, check out the Old Irish Inn (a.k.a. Alpaca Inn) north of Denton. This is an alpaca ranch with a handful of colorful cottages set around a pond. Each cottage has homey touches (covered porch, comfy linens, and in-room basics like a fridge and microwave) and private baths . Some suites even feature four-poster beds or private outdoor hot tubs, adding a romantic surprise. The grounds are what really set it apart: friendly alpacas (and other barnyard animals) wander nearby, making this feel like a fun country retreat. Reviewers rave about the owners’ hospitality and the delicious homemade breakfasts, so you get warm service in a secluded setting. It’s an “adults only” ranch feel with modern amenities, all at very wallet-friendly rates – a whimsical yet budget-friendly couples’ getaway. 9 4

Finally, Four Winds Victorian Venue & Suites is a unique alternative to a traditional B&B. Housed in a beautiful old Victorian home in Bonham (north of Dallas), Four Winds blends the privacy of a small hotel with the charm of a B&B. The owners describe it as a “home-away-from-home” for travelers on a romantic retreat . Couples love the antique decor and cozy suites – one guest said it was “the perfect place to enjoy Victorian style” – and breakfasts here are hearty country fare (fresh eggs, warm biscuits) served family-style . Because it operates like a private inn, the hosts can easily add personal touches (fresh flowers, extra fireplaces, special pillows, etc.) to make your stay memorable. Yet the pricing is comparable to a mid-range hotel, so you get historic charm and one-on-one attention without a huge splurge. In short, Four Winds gives couples a taste of Victorian romance (porches, parlors, and all) with the comfort of modern amenities – a sweet choice if you want something a little different from the ordinary. 

Each of these North Texas B&Bs has earned rave reviews for its ambiance and service. Whether you’re dreaming of a downtown Dallas mansion, a spa-like pool retreat in McKinney, or a lakeside cabin, one of these spots is sure to kindle the romance – without straining your budget.
