An excellent hotel near Hobby Airport
My sister and I decided to attend the International Quilt Festival in Houston and decided to fly rather than drive from Dallas. Southwest Airlines flies to Hobby Airport. My husband searched for a Starwood Hotel for us and was surprised to find one very close to the airport. The neighborhood used to be iffy, but has improved and the hotel was great. We attended the show, had dinner and then checked in. We were told we were the last ones in-even though it was relatively early- and they had upgraded us- as we were members of Starwood Preferred Guest program. The room was very nice, had a refrigerator, microwave, WIFI, etc. and was on the first floor and easy to access from the lobby. Parking was just outside the lobby door. There was an exercise room across the hall, coffee in the lobby, computers available in the lobby (to print your return boarding passes) and it is very convenient to the George Brown Convention Center in downtown Houston. The weekend room rate was great, the bed comfortable and the pillows out of this world. We took breakfast at the hotel instead of looking around the area for it, and it was memorable with very fresh ingredients.
