What to pack for a stay at Omni Fort Worth Hotel (seasonal checklist)
Pack seasonally for downtown Fort Worth: light, breathable clothing, sun protection and swimwear for the heated outdoor pool in warm months; layers for cool evenings and a light jacket in winter. Bring business attire if you have meetings or a dinner at Bob's Steak & Chop House, and don’t forget photo ID and the credit card used at booking (check-in requires a guest 21+).

Basic in-room amenities (linens, toiletries, robes in many rooms) are provided, but bring anything you prefer like specific hair tools, a favorite pillow, or motion-sickness remedies.
- Toiletries you prefer (hotel provides standard shampoo/soap)

Pool, sun deck and seasonal swimwear
The heated outdoor pool on the sun deck is open daily (6:00 a.m.–10:00 p.m.); the Water Horse Pool Bar and seasonal bars (Water Horse, Tiki Social, Blitzen’s when active) operate on seasonal schedules and may be closed in winter months. Pack swimwear, a cover-up, flip-flops, and a quick-dry towel if you prefer your own.
Bring sunscreen and sunglasses for daytime on the sun deck—Fort Worth summers are hot (average highs above 89°F from June–mid September) and sun exposure can be strong.

- Waterproof phone pouch or small dry bag

What to pack for dining, bars and evenings out
