Can't beat the location for convenient access to the Museum District (and the hotel shuttle will take you and pick you up at the ones located a little further away. , although you may have to wait for the shuttle). Our room was advertised as a double, but really was a single (the bed was a short double rather than... More

Located conveniently in the museum district, this boutique hotel provides an alternative to the big chains. The staff are young and full of energy making this an ideal stay for either business or pleasure. I loved the pool area, the spa and the bar. My room wasn't that great, a bit tired and the air conditioning was noisy otherwise I'd... More

I spent 2 days / 1night in Houston to attend Tristan and Isolde at the Opera House and visit museums and galleries. I have a really good experience at Zaza Hotel. The location is absolutely perfect, close to all the main museums and the metro. The check in was fast and efficient. The check is at 4pm but they gave... More

luzzien! Thank you for the feedback! I am pleased to read that you enjoyed your first visit to Houston! The arts scene in H-town is definitely something worth experiencing! Hotel ZaZa is located in a lovely part of H-town's Museum District, and the metro is an excellent transporation option; however, if you are looking for a swanky, smooth ride through... More

I got a room here for my wife and I for our anniversary because everyone said it was the place to go. I'll get to the two things I always make a point to talk about in any review of a hotel or B&B, the bed and the shower. The bed was comfortable. Not the best bed I have every... More

My personal experience at the Hotel ZaZa was a nightmare. I was attending an evening celebration at the Hotel ZaZa. There had been multiple celebration events on the main floor that evening between 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm (est.). Upon leaving the event that I had attended. I could not find my valet ticket. I addressed the issue at the... More

Dear Klaus C, Thanks for your review. A little background for the audience.

Recently stayed at the ZaZa and unfortunately had to go home early due to unexpected death. Staff was very kind and understanding. It was very much appreciated by my wife and myself. The hotel itself was very nice and has an "attitude" which was very refreshing in these days of computer generated decor. Hope to return some day.

We stayed for several nights to recover from our transatlantic flight and to visit the museums. The location was perfect for the Museum of Fine Art which is just across the road from the hotel entrance. Our first impression of ZaZa was the very dark lobby area followed by the relatively small size of our room for an expensive upmarket... More

Our one night stay at the ZaZa hotel was enjoyable. On the Saturday in question there were three wedding receptions in the hotel. It is to the hotel's credit that we were not really aware of this apart from the fact that the cocktail bar was a little busier than usual. The valet parking was slick and professional. We also...
