Top Downtown Aquarium Hotel Reviews

Hilton Americas-Houston

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, and friendly staff"

C. Baldwin, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"I had an amazing solo staycation at the C Baldwin Hotel. I booked the corner room and absolutely loved how big it was. The best part was definitely the windows — the room was basically surrounded by them, and the nighttime city views were beautiful. Honestly, it didn’t bother me that there wasn’t a pool or extra amenities because that’s not why I booked the stay. I wanted a relaxing, upscale getaway and that’s exactly what I got. I also appreciated having the valet option available because it made everything easier. I was disappointed that the restaurant was closed during my stay, but thankfully I was still able to order food at the bar. The food ended up being really good, the drinks were delicious, and the staff was super friendly. I also loved how quiet the hotel was overall. A few small things I noticed: the bed was a little hard for my liking, the bathroom vent was extremely loud and randomly came on, and I do wish they had hand soap in the restroom. Also, for the price of the hotel, I really feel like they should offer complimentary breakfast. The breakfast was delicious by the way, but $27 for an omelette and bacon is kind of crazy. Overall, this hotel — and pretty much everything around it — is definitely on the expensive side, but if you enjoy staying somewhere nice and treating yourself, it’s absolutely worth it. I would definitely stay here again."

Holiday Inn Houston Downtown by IHG

8/10 Good

"The staff were very helpful and polite. I just wish the fan in our room was not so loud while it was running. We had a hard time sleeping due to that. Regardless of that, the location was perfect and easy for us to get around town. Josh, and the other staff working in the kitchen and front desk were very polite. Kudos to the team!"

Aloft by Marriott Houston Downtown

4/10 Poor

"My stay at the Aloft Houston Downtown was disappointing overall. The room was poorly designed, and the water pressure throughout the hotel was terrible. The walls are extremely thin — I could hear my neighbors clearly, along with all the noise happening outside. From bushes stopping and unloading to motorcycles zooming by, it was untenable. Even the valet workers talking outside my window kept me awake, making it very difficult to sleep. The bed was also uncomfortable, which only made the experience worse. On top of that, parking is $57, and my card was charged twice for it. For the price, I expected a much better experience."
