I travel to Houston frequently, and when I do, I stay at the Crowne Plaza - Downtown. Its close to everything, the comp shuttle will take you anywhere downtown and the staff is awesome.

“Never, Never, Never Again”

Reviewed May 3, 2013

Single worst stay we have ever had at any hotel and I grew up in the military. The room was big and the breakfast was ok. Even though it was a Living Social getaway, a 250.00 room for 89.00 + taxes, the large crack in the sink in a tiny bathroom, the slamming doors and noise in the halls and... More

Had a night here while passing through Houston on business. Being a frequenter of CPs and ICHs generallty I was after predictable service levels in a handy location.

We stayed one night in the Crowne Plaza on our way back from Costa Rica. We didn't arrive at the hotel until 10pm so the restaurant was about to close.

“Terrible value for $350!!!!!”

Reviewed April 21, 2013 via mobile

There was a convention of some sort in Houston and this hotel had the gall to charge me $350 for one night. Even if it were the only hotel in the city, this hotel should never charge that much. It's a tired property not even up to the standards of an updated Holiday Inn Express. My room was probably nice... More
