I was booked at other property surrounding area, but when I found out that the price is cheaper for this hotel, I made a switched and found out that I made right decision. The room was very clean and spacious, the bed was very nice (bed quality really matters after 22 hours of flight) the bellman was nice enough to... More

We find Westin to be a reliably nice chain and this hotel was no exception. Rooms were huge, clean and nicely decorated. The hotel is attached to the Galleria which was convenient for shopping and there are many restaurants within walking distance (though most are chains). The workout room had a decent selection of new machines and we used it... More

We has a reunion at the hotel. We loved the location, very conveniently connecting to Galleria Mall. The rooms were spacious with comfy beds and roomy bath. The flaw of the hotel was its personnel. Front desk clerks did not know where the pool is, unhelpful with arranging for transportation to airports. Concierge men showed non guests how to use... More

This hotel was surprisingly much nicer than I thought looking at it from the outside. The building is burried in the mall and looks kind of dated. The lobby is a bit cramped and nothing to write home about but the room was large, very clean and comfortable. In this case the rooms are nicer than the rest of the... More

Never having stayed in the Galleria area before, I was very confused by the two Westin's essentially on the same block. Yes, there are two. The Westin Oaks Galleria and The Westin at the Galleria. The Westin at The Galleria has better reviews by and large than The Westin Oaks. I thought I was making reservations at The Westin Galleria... More

Hi, I normally stay at their other property, the Westin Galleria, but the rates on this one were particular cheaper for the dates we were going and since we were booking 2 rooms for 3 nights, it made sense to give it a try. The bathtub seemed very bad maintained, the enamel or the paint was coming off, not really... More

We stayed at the Westin Oaks Houston Galleria hotel this past November for one night prior to having knee surgery at Houston Orthopedics Hospital. The lobby is what you would expect of a 4-5 star hotel. A lot of granite, beautiful contemporary fresh floral arrangements, and an attentive staff. The rooms are a good size and more than accommodated the... More

This property is attached to the Galleria Mall and to several fantastic restaurants. The rooms are quite spacious, comfortable and clean. Their elevators are quite unique in how they are operated. You will have to experience them to understand them :-) I will stay here again without any hesitation.
