We stayed at the Icon for a 40th Anniversary in-town getaway. The room and ambience were excellent, and the staff did a great job arranging romantic amenities for our anniversary stay. The hotel is conveniently located near lots of great downtown dining and the theater district. Excellent service, and our king deluxe room was perfect for a weekend anniversary getaway.

This hotel is advertised as being elegant with great city views. Neither claim is accurate. The room was in mediocre shape at best, and the "high floor city view" rooms (which cost extra) are not very high (9th floor) with no view other than the roof of the building next door. I strongly recommend staying elsewhere.

Hotel ICON was an incredible stay. An older historic building with loads of charm, where the ICON truly shines is the service. I booked last minute, after plans changed for our 15 year anniversary. I booked the night before, and messaged the staff at 10am, just 3 hours before our planned arrival. I left the staff know it was our anniversary and asked if they could help me make it special for my partner. In just 3 hours the staff was able to find balloons, rose petals, have wine and snacks prepared, as well as finding the perfect room to impress. Upon check in we were greeted and wished a Happy Anniversary. I could not have asked for a better stay, or better service from the staff. A very memorable stay!

Everyone one of the staff was pleasant and helpful. Andres was very kind and helpful. He made me laugh, and feel at home. I loved getting to converse with him while I was waiting on the shuttle. The shuttle for downtown was perfect way to beat the heat and save some money while traveling downtown for a work conference.

The hotel is beautiful and my room was quiet and impeccably clean. I used room service twice and was very happy with the food and the service! Metropolis Parking provides the valet parking service and they were excellent. Daniel and Andres were fast, but careful, with my car - another example of great service! I confidently recommend Hotel Icon.

I ended up at this hotel due to it's proximity to the courthouse, and it was amazing. Everyone on the staff was so helpful, and friendly! The building is beautiful, and the rooms are tastefully decorated and include complimentary bottles of water and full size bottles of shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. The shower had good water pressure and was a nice size - and this is the first hotel I've stayed in where the towels don't smell like old beach. The bed was really comfortable too. There's artwork on most of the buildings which is nice to see out your window; and there's a drugstore a block away as well as several restaurants within walking distance. Overall a great hotel and a great experience!

This was such a nice hotel! We always stay near the galleria or Memorial city, but decided to stay downtown so we would be close to the theater district and ball park. We are so glad we did! This hotel has so much character and interest which we loved. Somehow we overlooked the fact that the hotel has shuttle service… So that was such an unexpected treat. Ramiro helped us with valet service and coordinating the shuttle. He was so kind & right on whatever we needed. We will definitely stay here again. (Taco place around the corner is delicious.)

Staff was excellent! Shuttle Service: Ramiro and his team got us to dinner and Musical at the Hobby Center with no fuss. Navigating downtown and parking was going to be a nightmare, they made it as simple as you could make it with front door service. Very grateful
