Blossom Hotel Houston, Curio Collection by Hilton
The Blossom Hotel is absolutely amazing. The staff was friendly, the room was gorgeous and the lobby is beautiful. Every area of the hotel was clean. The breakfast was delicious. I stayed for one night and hated that my stay couldn’t be longer. I will definitely stay at The Blossom when I am in Houston ...

The Whitehall Houston
The property is really rundown and in a bad area. The staff was friendly, but unfortunately, we left after a few hours and found a different hotel to stay in. The room was also very dirty dust everywhere dirty windows, etc.
