    The Westin's elegant decor and inviting atmosphere made me feel right at home, perfect for enjoying leisurely strolls around the lobby and access to local dining and attractions.

    More accessible seating in public areas would help.

    high rates

    great location but slightly pricey

    The location proved ideal for attending the Astros game right across the street. The cleanliness of the room and the comfort of the bed exceeded my expectations.

    The rates felt a bit high for a single night stay.

    A balance of wins and fails

    The location is ideal for catching an Astros game, and the beds are some of the most comfortable I've experienced. The friendly valet service further enhanced our stay.

    Struggled with communication regarding my reservation, and late-night dining options were limited. It would be better if these aspects were improved.

    Can recommend for a fleeting pause

    Spacious room, clean room with a fitness center that helped me stay active during my stay, and the location's convenience made it easy to explore nearby attractions, including a short 20 km distance from the airport.

    No complaints.

    quick service
    poor communication
    inaccessible room

    Dining options were on point! From the Ballpark Cafe just a hop away to Irma's Southwest for some serious flavor, we feasted like royalty. Also, the valet crew deserves a shout-out for their friendly vibes and quick service. An overall solid score for the stay!

    We got placed on the 7th floor initially, not cool since my son needs some extra care. The room we switched to wasn't even a handicap room, and it left us high and dry. Front desk support simply said sorry and the manager never came through with help.

    I absolutely loved the inviting lobby, which was decorated elegantly and filled with natural light, making it feel cozy and welcoming. The staff were always nearby to assist, ensuring everything was accessible for seniors like myself.

    More seating options in common areas would be helpful.

    spacious room
    quick valet service
    poor room placement
    lack of handicap access

    The stay was enjoyable, especially being so close to the baseball park, which made it easy to catch a game with friends. The room was clean and spacious, perfect for unwinding after a busy day. I particularly appreciated the welcoming atmosphere and the quick service from the valet team. However, the initial placement on a higher floor wasn't suitable since we needed easier access due to my son's needs, and that was a bit disappointing.

    We checked out the local museums and enjoyed the nightlife. The hotel had comfortable beds and a nice room despite some maintenance hiccups. Just a heads up for future guests, double-check the fridge and coffee maker to avoid any surprises!

    The check-in experience was a bit lacking. the staff seemed uninterested, which was disappointing. It's key for staff to make guests feel welcomed.
