Pleasant stay.
I was pleased with the breakfast offerings. The hotel has a charming, albeit slightly dated, decor and is conveniently located near a bustling street filled with attractions. I liked the view of my room.
The decoration and facilities of hotel are a little bit old. The in-room service was lacking; during our stay, they only changed the towels and replenished the toilet paper without cleaning the room.

It was an enjoyable and memorable birthday for me with my wife.
Clean and quaint. I like older city buildings refurbished into classic hotels.
Parking was a bit pricey but it was better then parking on the street I guess.

Anniversary trip
It’s very clean, everyone is so friendly. I love the history behind the place. The room was comfortable.
I did not know that the only parking option was valet and it was $50 a day. The site said there was a parking garage. Definitely not true. Our room was across the street from a bar so the music was very loud until 2am every night.

The staff was exceptional. Jenny at the bar was so great, personable, smart, and efficient. Anna, who was also helping at the bar was wonderful. Holly at the front desk was very helpful and gave me a list with restaurant recommendations that I really liked.

Overall very nice stay.
Beautiful hotel and rooms. Location is very easy to find. Great location within Houston area. Well staffed at the front desk. Love all or the ornate details.
Valet parking cost is incredibly expensive. Only 4 hangers were in the room and I called down for more which were never delivered. Drinks were good but expensive.

The ambiance was top notch and possibly one of the best of all the hotels in the Houston downtown area and it’s walkable
Prime location in the Houston downtown area. It’s a walkable distance from every bar/club you’d want to visit in main street.
No free parking.
