Top University of Houston - Downtown Hotel Reviews

Magnolia Hotel Houston, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel and great location."

Cambria Hotel Houston Downtown Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"To say my stay was amazing is an understatement!!! The check in process was quick and easy , the customer service was amazinggggg , Alexia , girl your customer service skills are top tier. I can’t remember the names of the other staff I interacted with but they were just as amazing. I also like how there is a restaurant/bar within the property ! Highly recommended"

The Sam Houston Hotel, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"This is going to be our go-to stay in Houston from now on. The hotel was easy to find and absolutely beautiful. It was very well maintained. The rooms were smaller than other hotels I Have stayed in but they were cozy and personable. The decor was very boutique and personal: I did not feel like I was staying in a big-box hotel. The Pearl was pricy, but the food was worth it. Everything we had was fantastic. My one complaint is that the dining room was not open when we came down for dinner: we had to eat at the bar. I understand why: it was a Monday night and it was around 8 by the time we got in, so if you plan to enjoy a quiet dinner with your significant other, check when the dining room closes first. The valet staff were very helpful and attentive. My advice for travelers would be to anticipate the additional charges. Valet service is required if you bring a car and it was $56 plus tax. It's also a good idea to make sure you have cash: they help with your luggage out front and escort you to your room. Overall, we highly recommend it, especially for couples on a getaway."
