Treat Yourself to an Unforgettable Stay at These Hotels in Houston
Most Unique
Hotel ZaZa
In the middle of Houston’s Museum District lies the city’s most unique lodging option. Hotel Zaza has a variety of themed rooms like the Rock Star Suite complete with music-related decor, or the space-themed “Houston We Have a Problem” that has a real NASA spacesuit on display.
Even if themed rooms aren’t your thing, there are still luxurious balcony rooms, opulent multi-room suites, poolside villas and bungalows to choose from.
As a guest you’ll also have access to their fine dining restaurant, Monarch, which uses ingredients sourced from local farmers and artisans, and an onsite luxury day spa where you can get dusted in gold powder! An enormous compound of nearly 22,000 square feet, 12 stories and 315 diverse rooms, staying at Hotel Zaza is an experience you’ll never forget.
Hotel Ylem
You can’t miss Hotel Ylem’s mural-painted facade off Main Street in Houston’s Three Corners neighborhood. A unique, art-centric boutique hotel, Hotel Ylem has its own gallery of local artists with sales benefiting the nonprofit Charity: Water.
They have also partnered with many environmentally sustainable and socially responsible businesses and organizations that have provided them with everything from decor to bath products to their employees’ shoes.
Each of their modern rooms and suites come with a Keypr tablet allowing guests to watch Netflix in their rooms in addition to regular TV or order extra pillows, blankets, or even a leg massager. Some rooms come with a Jacuzzi tub or retro-style mini fridge. All in all, Hotel Ylem knows how to cater to their guests’ needs while making them feel like their money is being put to good use.

Marriott Marquis Houston
Conveniently located downtown with a direct connection to the convention center via skywalk, the Marriott Marquis Houston is a favorite for business travelers. However, even if your visit is just for pleasure, you’ll find a tranquil oasis on their rooftop terrace.
Here you’ll find the largest rooftop pool in all of Texas, a lazy river (appropriately shaped like the state), along with an infinity pool, Jacuzzi, firepits and cabanas.
Grab a cocktail at the poolside restaurant and enjoy panoramic views of downtown. Or try one of the other five onsite dining options ranging from a sports bar to a wine cave. If you’re lucky, you’ll even get a room with a pool view allowing you to photograph the hotel’s most unique feature to your heart’s content.
