Top South Central Houston Hotel Reviews

Houston Marriott Medical Center/Museum District

10/10 Excellent

"El Hotel y el servicio fueron excelentes. Muy importante la ubicación si tienes citas el el Methodist"

Houston Towers Inn Downtown Museum District Med. Ctr NRG - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"This definitely a different experience than your typical hotel--it's a weird old house with antique furniture and gothic turrets. Everything was clean and well maintained though, and the staff was quite friendly. Breakfast was adequate. Essentially it consisted of complimentary access to a well-stocked kitchen. The pool was not the most meticulously maintained but it was clean enough that we felt comfortable swimming, and the pool area is pleasantly shaded and private. Access in and out of the property is through a gated driveway. The parking is a little tight but ultimately it was easy to get in and out, and the location is very convenient to the museum district."

MorningSide Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Based on the price and the proximity to nrg stadium and the medical center I would say this is a amazing deal. The rooms are older however for the price you are getting a safe and clean place to stay for the night. The hotel staff where friendly and helpful when I asked for an extra key later at night. I went to a game at nrg and chose this place and will chose it again in the future would definitely recommend for a budget traveler who just wants a clean and safe place to stay for the night."
