Very nice and lively place to be but attention to the client could be improved,

Situation of the hotel. Size and comfort of the room. Goo bed.

Nobody answering the telephone when we call the reception. When leaving for dinner we asked the reception to put additional towels in our romm. We never got them. I do not like the concept of destination fees. Why advertise the price of the room at $300 or $400 when you are automatically charged $25 of destination fees whether or not you use the supposed perks offered by the hotel (the free public parking for example ). Very difficult in this large parking to find where the clients of the hotel have to park. Lack of visible signs indicating where to park and how to get back to the hotel. Suggestion: give the clients a map of the parking. The decoration of the rooms is pretty plain, lacks warmth. Prior to the date of our stay, I probably received 5 messages o f the hotel (5 times the same message) . This is too much : 1 or 2 timely reminders would be enough.

New Years Staycation

I like the new remodel rooms since the last time I visited. Decorated very bright and luxurious. The staff was nice. Love the access to all the restaurants and live music. We had an amazing view from our room of city center.

I wish they had something going on for New years for the guest. The party was way too expensive and blocked the pool area. Parking was confusing, but it seems like shared parking for everything. Couldn't find the elevators.

Lots of potential

Great hotel and great location. Unfortunately it's currently under construction and makes checking in unprofessional, but understand there's not much you can do about it. I'm sure it'll be very nice when the construction is finished.

Frankly, I felt our stay was not worth $450+ per night.

Our room, a junior suite, was comfortable.

Simple buffet was over-priced given the few choices available. 2nd floor lobby did not offer a warm, inviting feeling. No comfortable waiting area to meet friends. Free bottled water in the room would be appreciated. We had one bottle provided for our four-day stay. One per person per day would be a nice, simple treat. Our TV (both sets) had transmission problems which was annoying and kept us from using either one.

Lots of fun

Very nice hotel, very clean. Room was very spacious, clean, bed comfortable and pillows were perfect. Air conditioning did not disappoint. Did not visit pool area. Multiple stores to shop at and multiple places to eat within walking distance we did not have to take the vehicle off the premises until check out. Staff very friendly and helpful.

No vending machines in the hotel-can drinks were $4 so definitely bring your own snacks

I tried to order sodas to the room but was told I had to go down to the bar to get them. The bar was located outside and around the corner from the hotel. Very inconvenient considering I just wanted a coke and a couple of waters.

Nice location. Hotel construction is an issue. Confusing entrance.

Convenient location for shopping, hanging out, movie theater, and restaurants.

A lot of construction at the entrance and at the main level. Very confusing. Took awhile to figure out where the entrance was and find help with baggage. Lobby is actually on the second level accessed by a somewhat hidden single elevator. Pool area was not accessible when we tried to go there due to construction. Self park is a bit of a trek.

Great Hotel Great Location!

The Moran is in an excellent location. It's located in the heart of top rated restaurants,coffee shops, shopping, and things to do. The hotel is beautiful and clean, with spacious rooms and bathrooms. I loved that the shower pressure was great with hot running water. Also glad that the shower had a barrier between floor and walk in shower (many hotels don't have this which leads to water on the floor outside of the shower). Room comes with a refrigerator, coffee maker, additional toiletries. No microwave, but that was no worries. If you're looking for a beautiful hotel, great location where you can avoid Freeway to go to other attractions nearby this is for you!

I didn't like the fact that there's construction at the hotel until April 4th. I wish that this was communicated to me prior to booking this week because I would've postponed until pool, gym, and live music in hotel were open. Thankfully, there was a small live music event right next door at Radio Milano. My husband also had back pain from the bed. They do sit low. I was fine though. (Extra pillows may help for those that get back pain). If pool and gym were open I believe I'd give this hotel a 10. I will definitely be back.

Wonderful stay - utopian feel

Loved how friendly the staff was. They went over and beyond to accommodate all of my needs. I loved the modern & chic aesthetic of the hotel Location is perfect in my opinion Breakfast was also very yummy - lattes and cappuccinos available for purchase

The Moran is the perfect stay. Extremely family friendly, great location & nice scenery.

Perfect location. A plethora of restaurants & shopping centers in close proximity.

The room got pretty humid often. Anytime the a/c unit wasn’t actively blowing cold air the room would feel stuffy, & humid. Breakfast is also extremely bland. Parking is a headache on busy days like the weekend.

Excellent where the package of location, restaurants and hotel quality is hard to beat in Houston

If you travel to Houston and are looking for a place to stay where you have a good selection of restaurants and shopping within walking distance from the hotel, I would highly recommend looking at the Citycentre where Beltway 8 intersects with I10. In this area, The Moran is an excellent option to stay. I have used this hotel for 10+ years and always come back. The hotel was a little bit "shinier" some years back, but the package of location, facilities, restaurants and hotel quality is hard to beat in Houston.

The hotel has changes name over the years, but very little renovation has been conducted. It is still a very good hotel, but maybe it is time to freshen up some parts of the hotel?

Book this hotel! You will not be disappointed!

It was an ideal location m, the continental breakfast was really good, and the area has great restaurants! It is also plenty of shopping strips directly on the street of the hotel. The hotel is also very beautiful and there’s a lounge right on the property! I highly recommend!

I didn’t like that the pool closed earlier than expected.
