About Us

Originally built in 1906, The Thornton Inn has lived many lives, from a private residence and fraternity house to the distinctive boutique inn it is today. The historic home now offers five individually appointed guest rooms and two private apartments, blending original character with the comfort and convenience modern travelers expect. Tucked into a quaint, quiet neighborhood near Downtown Arlington and the University of Texas at Arlington, the inn provides a peaceful retreat just minutes from Front Street, Levitt Pavilion, AT&T Stadium, Globe Life Field, and Six Flags Over Texas. Whether visiting for a campus event, concert, game, family getaway, or extended stay, guests can experience a more personal side of Arlington while remaining close to its biggest attractions.
