What guests think

At Residence Inn Houston Downtown/Convention Center, travelers consistently praise the friendly staff, central downtown location near major venues and transit, and a complimentary breakfast that many enjoy for convenience when staying for business, events, or short city visits.

Rooms are frequently described as very spacious with full kitchens and comfortable beds, and some mention pleasant views. Cleanliness is usually solid but inconsistent, with a few reports of missed spots or pests, and the downtown area has visible homelessness that some guests found uncomfortable. Facilities feel older in places, and recurring complaints include expensive valet-only parking and occasional AC or maintenance issues, plus nighttime street noise affecting lower floors. Expect a convenient suite-style stay with warm service and some trade-offs typical of a busy downtown location.

Staff was very friendly. The breakfast had a good selection each day. My refrigerator wasn't working very well, it wasn't cold at all and it wouldn't make ice at all and after 3 complaints, I gave up. Also, there is ONLY valet parking at $60 per day, which was not what I was expecting.

The stay was fine, however, like most hotels, they bumped up the price for Valentine’s Day. But what was even worse, they charged $50 for their parking!!! The valet podium had a sign on it saying parking was $20. I called the hotel and they apologized for their parking price but said $50 isn’t a mistake. I think that is just price gouging and just plane wrong.

The staff and the room were good. The only problem was parking. The hotel shares the postage stamp-sized parking area with two other hotels. The only choice was in the street or pay $60 for overnight parking. There were no places available on the street that were within three or so blocks. As a single female alone at night, I paid the $60 which I consider to be gouging.

Convenient location in downtown. However lobby is also shared with Courtyard and Springhill Suites and can be busy with conferences. Rooms are clean but severely outdated and need a renovation.

Not so clean on arrival , found some dirty underwear left by a previous guest behind the door in the bedroom. Didn’t inspire confidence that the place had been cleaned properly. Overall it was average. A bit shabby in the rooms but not a bad stay. Adequate but could do with being cleaner on arrival.

My friends and I had a wonderful stay here! The staff was welcoming and attentive and our room was nice and spacious with a great kitchen space. If we’re ever back in area we already said we would be back. The only small thing that I’d ask for is for breakfast to be a bit versatile. I understand if that’s a big ask but that would be the only thing. Other than that keep up the fantastic work!

What a brilliant hotel!!! The staff were outstanding! My room was huge and extremely well-equipped (“full kitchen” literally means a full kitchen…!). The included breakfast was plentiful and the breakfast room was big enough to accommodate many people. I loved everything about this hotel! Being downtown, homelessness in the area is evident, but the hotel is secure. The area is walkable. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Houston. As I said, the staff were amazing and are a true asset to the hotel.

The hotel was clean and the front desk was especially efficient. Ray was very welcoming and helpful. We were on the 3rd floor. We did not know that people race their cars on the street right outside, especially on weekends. As a result, we could hardly sleep. If you stay here, request a room on an upper floor. Ask for one that is especially quiet.

All around, the hotel's location was very convenient for our stay. Being at the center of downtown, it made it easier to walk to places. The room was surprisingly big, would say one of the biggest rooms I've stayed in. Can't beat the price. Would for sure stay here again.

Rooms was clean but very outdated. Looked liked something from Addams family. If I was not with a group then I would’ve gotten a hotel elsewhere. Smallest tv ever. Tv was far from bed so makes your eyes hurt because it’s so small to see. No USB cord. No smart tv. We in 2023. Please keep up with the updates.

I double booked the stay and when I got there the lady pressured me into canceling the other reservation knowing I would not get credit for anything since I had already paid. I ended up without even Marriott points after throwing away $1K. When I asked her to see what she could do to at least credit me points she said she had already canceled it and could do nothing.

The location was perfect. We were in walking distance to good dining and entertainment options. I also appreciated the ease of access to public transportation (trolly, uber, etc.) I do wish that downtown Houston had more convenience store options in the immediate area. It would have been nice to be able to grab snacks and drinks from a place outside of the hotel without having to jump in an Uber.

Regrettably quite a large number of homeless around the district. Nothing the hotel could do about this though. Inter city transport nonexistent, to visit anywhere other than the city of Houston you need to use a cab.
