When it comes to traveling to the Sheraton Fort Worth Downtown Hotel from the airports in Dallas, namely DFW International Airport and Love Field, you have two options. However, we highly recommend flying into DFW International Airport for your convenience. This airport provides a direct train service that can take you directly to the Sheraton Fort Worth Downtown Hotel.
