We stayed @ the Magnolia for 2 nights the first weekend in June. We actually went to Houston to see our St Louis Cardinals play the Astros. The hotel was great-the room was really nice and the location of the hotel was within walking distance to Minute Maid Park. We liked the staff they were real helpful and courteous. We did research before arrival and did not use the hotel valet service thanks to Trip Advisor. We used street parking one night & a $5 lot the other night. The hotel valet is way overpriced. We especially liked the hotels happy hour- drinks are reasonably priced for happy hour & they even had salsa & chips which was a good touch. Both nights we missed the milk & cookies which we really did want to try. I was way disappointed in Houston-nothing to do at night. For such a big city we were left to find our own entertainment even the internet couldn't help. Minute Maid was nice & the people in Houston are very friendly. If we ever HAVE to go to Houston again I would definetly stay @ the Magnolia. We paid $105 per night & think that was a great deal. Don't miss the hotel bar-free pool table & great hospitality.

My husband and I spent one night in Houston before departing for our cruise out of Galveston the next day. We went to a baseball game that evening Minute Maid Park and we couldn't have asked for a better location for our hotel -- its only a couple blocks away! The rooms were a nice size with comfy beds and new flat screen TV's. The bathrooms had a lot of storage space for personal items, as well as a nice selection of tolietries. The hotel has a nice size fitness centers and a rooftop pool and hotub with beautiful views of the city. We also had appetizers and drinks at the hotel's bar/restaurant after the game and got great service. Don't forget to have some cookies and milk before bedtime. They serve them in the bar/restaurant area around 9pm. There is also a free continental breakfast every morning too. Overall, we had a very good experience and would definitely stay here again if we ever return to Houston.

Recently stayed at the Magnolia when they hosted a conference I was attending. The rooms---I saw several---are nicely appointed with well selected furniture and accessories. This was one the quietest I have ever been in; the only noise I heard was the door across the hall slamming a time or two. The suites are massive. Nice bar, decent breakfast. Valet parking seemed overly pricey, but the service was exceptional.

Hubby and I stayed at Magnolia Houston for 2 nights while in town for the 4/21 Jimmy Buffett concert. Staff very nice, room service quick and tasty, beds and linens terrific, no noise from other rooms. Great location a couple blocks from Minute Maid Park and also a couple blocks from the train that takes you to museum district, zoo, MD Anderson Hospital(and others like Methodist, Memorial Hermann, etc) and Reliant Center...ticket is only $2.00 per person for 24 hour pass. Ben & Jerry's a block away along with 2 Irish pubs and several Mexican/ Tex Mex places plus Vic & Anthony's Steaks and Irma's Southwestern Grill.
