Where to Stay When Visiting Caterpillar (Dallas–Fort Worth)
Caterpillar's headquarters is in the Las Colinas / Irving area of Dallas–Fort Worth. Book near the campus, not by reflex — the hotels that matter are right there.
Caterpillar is the world's largest manufacturer of construction and mining equipment, headquartered at 5205 N O'Connor Blvd, Irving, TX 75039. That's Las Colinas, the master-planned business district in Irving between the two downtowns — its own cluster of corporate campuses and canal-side hotels, with DFW airport a few minutes away.
“Caterpillar moved its global headquarters to Las Colinas. Stay in the district by DFW, not downtown 20 minutes east.”— Rachel Julian, Founder & Editor-in-Chief
Which airport — and how far?
DFW International is right here — about 15 minutes / 7 miles, one of the easiest airport runs in the metro. Dallas Love Field is farther, roughly 20–25 minutes east.
Where should you stay near Caterpillar?
Stay in Las Colinas itself, near Caterpillar — the district's hotels sit minutes from the campuses and about 15 minutes from DFW. Downtown Dallas is 20 minutes east and adds nothing to this trip.
