Uptown probably has the most bars and clubs for young people.

There is action on lower Greenville, Deep Elm, and some downtown too.

I don't club and am too old to give you any real advice as to where the action is for someone your age.What area should I book my hotel in Dallas Texas near bars/lounges/clubs?
Addison is probably one of the most popular spots but isn't in Dallas proper. If you want to be near the downtown action then maybe Deep Ellum, but I've not been down there for so long that I have no idea what it's like now. Personally, I find downtown Dallas to be rather dead and unexciting most of the time. You may want to consider Fort Worth instead, it has a thriving square which is always busy.What area should I book my hotel in Dallas Texas near bars/lounges/clubs?
Downtown would be great. A lot of people specially the party people.
Addison is the place to be these days. All sorts of new bars, clubs and restraunts are sprouting up all over the place!
