Quick Verdict: Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center vs The Stoneleigh, Autograph Collection

When Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center wins: choose Gaylord Texan if you need resort-scale amenities — a seasonal 10-acre Paradise Springs Water Park, indoor atriums, on-site spa, and tens of thousands of square feet of meeting and ballroom space — or if you’re traveling with children or a large group.
