Blossom Hotel Houston, Curio Collection by Hilton
10/10 Excellent
"Great hotel, great staff, super impressed! 5 star hotel vibe for $150? Book it. Valet is $50 though so factor that in since there’s not any parking. But, great restaurant, rooftop bar, etc. I recommend "
The Whitehall Houston
10/10 Excellent
"The Whitehall was an amazing place to stay. My daughter doesn't live far from the hotel, so it worked out perfectly for us when we needed to meet up. Above all, the staff from the front desk to the restaurant where absolutely amazing. Everyone was so friendly and went out of their way to make sure i had what i needed and was comfortable. Considering I was there the weekend of the snow storm and they were short staffed, I would have definitely understood if they didn't meet the mark, but they did. Great job to everyone!"
