Nice place to stay for business and good for ball games
This is a very good convention hotel it is attached to the George R Brown convetion center so if the weather is not great you do not have to go outside. The Toyota Center is just across the street so we caught two games while we there. Also, Minute Maid Park is an easy walk of about two blocks for baseball games in the summer. On our last visit to this hotel we were upgraded to a corner room which was very spacious and had great night time views. The staff was very accomodating, even offering the services of the "hotel car" to take me to a pharmacy when I fell ill and had to have a prescription filled. The concierge found a pharmacy open on a Sunday which would take a called in prescription from my physician back home. Housekeeping was good as well and the beds were extremely comfortable. I even checked into purchasing the same mattress that they have in the rooms. The only thing that kept me from giving this an excellent is the limited food choices in the hotel. They have expensive and very expensive. We ate in the lobby restaurant one night and the food was okay, but over priced. The wait staff was very attentive in the resaurant as well as in the convention venues. We walked to the House of Blues one night for a group dinner and I believe there are other places to eat that are very close. No problem coming here another time for a convention.
