Top East Downtown Houston Hotel Reviews

Blossom Hotel Houston, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, good breakfast nice stay"

Hotel Zaza Houston Museum District

8/10 Good

"Hotel ZaZa Houston was a great stay with a true luxury feel. The staff were amazing and made the experience feel very personalized from the moment I arrived, including a lovely glass of bubbly rosé at check-in. The hotel itself has a beautiful old Hollywood vibe, with stylish decor and a signature scent throughout that makes the whole place feel elegant and memorable. I really appreciated the thoughtful amenities like the morning coffee station on each floor and the afternoon cookies in the lobby. The complimentary car service within a 3-mile radius was incredibly convenient and made getting around feel easy and safe, especially as a solo female traveller. My only small drawback was that the air conditioning unit was quite loud when running. Overall, a wonderful stay and I would definitely return."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Houston Bush IAH South

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was top of the line i would definitely recommend if you are coming to the area to check them out. My only concern is that the wonderful employees were having to suffer from it being overheated in their work space down in the lobby."

Holiday Inn Houston Downtown by IHG

8/10 Good

"The hotel is currently under major construction, making it difficult to give a full rating. The bed was comfortable, and while the room was very small, it worked for sleeping and showering. The bathroom lighting is very dim, making it difficult to apply makeup or do hair. Breakfast is available for $10 but is not included and requires a ticket; the attendant is very strict about this. Parking is $30 per day in a garage that is somewhat in disarray due to construction. A major plus is that although checkout is at 11:00 AM, garage access is allowed until 11:59 PM, which was very helpful. We were in town for the Lone Star Regional Volleyball tournament at the convention center, and with Sunday game times being TBA, the extended parking access added convenience. The rail train is located across the street, but there is significant walking between connections. While inexpensive (about $1.25 per person per ride), it can be confusing and frustrating if you’re unfamiliar with the city. We found Uber/Lyft to be a more convenient option."

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel & Suites Houston by the Galleria

2/10 Terrible

"This review is specifically about the staff working valet parking morning of Sunday 5/17/2026. He had a very bad attitude and I seriously recommend some customer service training for him. I misplaced the valet ticket given to me the night before, in spite of the fact that my jeep was parked right in front of the hotel he refused to give me my keys. My last name and my room number was written on the tag on the keys but he just refused to open the key cabinet to look for my keys. He kept asking me over and over what my tag number was and I kept telling him that I did not know what it was so he simply said he couldn't help me. What was I supposed to do? Leave my car there and walk home? Very poor management. Will never stay there again."
