My husband and I went to Houston two weeks ago for the Microsoft Partners Convention. All the others hotels were already full, so we took our chances in the Lovett Inn and it was a very nice surprise. It´s in a very calm street and the owners are very friendly and helpfull. Clean and confortable.

I'm always a bit leery of booking B&B rooms online because you never know what you are stepping into however I was more than pleasantly surprised when I walked through the front door of this charming old mansion. Everything was clean, very well maintained and so QUITE!

Even though I arrived after hours Dan, one of the owners, was right there to greet me and show me around the house. He set me up with maps of the neighborhood and directions to the many great restaurants and attractions in the area. I walked around the neighborhood for two days and still did not see everything! It is very centrally located to downtown, gallery district, parks, shops, culture and everything in between.

There are a few negative reviews on the Lovett Inn and I can't help but wonder who these people are! While reading them I just couldn't understand how someone did not absolutely love this place! I'm a skeptic by nature but I couldn't find anything wrong with my stay.

The staff was very helpful and friendly, everything was clean and nice, the pool and garden were clean and very well maintained, the food was tasty, the tree-lined neighborhood is very cozy, my air conditioned room was the perfect temp and the house was so quite I thought I was the only guest, but I wasn't! The sleep number bed was so comfortable I took an unlikely nap one afternoon.

This was my first time in Houston and I keep patting myself on the back for choosing such a perfect place to stay. My only regret is not staying longer. I will definitely be back soon!

Forget about hotels in Houston, stay at the Lovett Inn!

The Lovett Inn in Houston is NOT your typical bed and Breakfast... if you want frills and lace.. this is NOT the place for you. If however, you'd like a clean, quiet home in which to stay where you will be enjoy a beautiful neighborhood, friendly, helpful innkeepers and restful surroundings... this might be just the place... it was for me.

I found this inn here and contacted them directly for a weeks stay. I booked the Lovett Suite and promptly received an email confirmation with throughough check in instructions. Their website represents the property very well and when I arrived I was very pleased that the property was even better than I expected.

The house is very clean and very quiet... I never was bothered from noise by other guests and did not hear footsteps in the hallway over or under me. The room was expansive and I enjoyed the sitting room, the jacuzzi tub and the wonderful outdoor balcony overlooking the gardens and the water fountain.

The location was perfect for me, I had business in the Galleria and Memorial Drive Areas and the drives were easy and convenient. The Randalls on Westheimer took care of my grocery needs and the Inn had plates and utencils available so I was able to use the refridgerator in my room to have light suppers or snacks whenever I wanted.

The innkeepers were all fabulous and quick to offer directions or to grant my special requests. (Only had one.. and they took care of it the same day.)

If I ever have a need to visit Houston again, I will definately return to the Lovett and I will recommend to others.

I stayed at the Lovett Inn twice recently, in May and July. It's proximity to where I was working and to restaurants made it ideal. (I rented a car but my colleague did not and could easily walk to a wide number of good places to eat.) Great B+B facility with thoughtful touches such as all day breakfast in the old parlor, books to borrow and DVD's to see in your room. Stayed in two rooms and enjoyed the amentities. (Web site does a good job of showing what rooms look like.) I highly recommend ths Lovett if you like B+B's and friendly yet not intrusive hospitality. Also well located in a hip, gentrified section of Houston near a couple of the top rated restaurants in the city.
