From Google Maps, it looks like there are some service roads (toll-free) adjacent to International Parkway, but I've seen some conflicting information (the majority of which says you must pay a toll to enter DFW).

Lastly, if a toll is required to be paid, I know that the Grand Hyatt DFW offers complimentary self-parking, but does anyone know if that includes payment of the tolls as well?
I wouldn't attempt to reach the D parking area on any but the normal entry routes from N or S entrances.

You'll pay the "toll" when departing the airport, and the last time I attended a function at the Grand Hyatt, the "Complimentary Parking" endorsement at the hotel desk included the 'toll" (which is not really a toll in the strictest sense, simply a part of the parking charges if you use a garage/lot. I'm not sure how the hotel would treat a request for a "parker" who does not occupy a room, dine in the hotel or attend a function there.
