My husband and I were in Houston for one night to see an Astros game. The location of this property is ok for getting to Minute Maid Park on foot - you have to walk a questionable path although hotel employees assured us it was safe. Because there was rain we opted to take a cab. Cab fare is $6... more

We were in town for an event at the Toyota Center, so the location couldn't have been more convenient. Easy walk to the facility. Also would have been a great spot if going to a game at Minute Maid Park. What little time we did spend at the hotel was just fine. The room was clean and functioned as expected.... more

This hotel was within walking distance of the Toyota Center, which was the main aim. It was reasonably priced, and the rooms were quite nice. However, it was noisy, and I asked the front desk to intervene twice to sort out a problem with the tv. No one ever came around to check on that. If you have an event... more

First, I'll say the location is great if you want to stay near the Toyota Center. These were my problems: - there was a roach in the room running around the bed and headboard. Front desk said they couldn't do anything - no bug spray, wouldn't move the room, etc. The manager offered to move our room the next day... more

I stayed at the Holiday Inn Express (Downtown Houston) for one night in October 2007. I was attending a concert (The Donnas) at the Meridian, a club on Chartres Street. I'd never been to Houston before, so I didn't know where to stay. I wanted a hotel within walking distance of the Meridian, figuring I'd have a few beers and... more

Wireless did not work in my room so needed an ethernet cable which they provided; NO Fridge; the 2nd floor STUNK like cig smoke because it is the floor with the most smoking rooms (and the only one with the lines to support Internet so had to take lesser of 2 evils!); AC is LOUD! THIS PLACE NEEDS AN UPGRADE!!!... more

Stayed here one night with wife and two sons (7 and 4) to be close to Minute Maid Park. I did this a year ago with the boys and returned for this year's trip. You can't beat this place for a downtown sporting event - free parking, walking distance to Minute Maid Park or Toyota Center (felt safe walking back... more

This place was great! The facility is near new! The bathroom had really long gorgeous granite counter tops...lots of space for toiletries. The bed was comfy. The air conditioning worked great! The room was quiet. I never heard anyone else showering, etc. Parking was FREE!!! The breakfast buffet offered more then I expected. Eggs, sausage, biscuits and gravy, yogurt, cereal,... more

We stayed in the holiday inn for three nights in february, and we got everything we expected, it was clean, well located (right across from the toyota centre where Christina Aguleira was performing while we were there) and the staff were incredibly helpful as is usual at a holiday inn. A really nice touch was the cookies and milk they... more
