"The staff is very friendly and responsive. We needed some help after check in and they fulfilled all quickly and in a friendly manner. The room was clean. There is no fan. A/C was good but a fan in the sitting area would be good. The bathroom was clean but old looking. The hotel is in a nice neighborhood and it was peaceful and safe. I stayed there with my family for the world cup match. The stadium was very near. We had a peaceful stay and its very value for the money"

"Facility was nice. DRIFTRS, the management company, is really bad. We were there for 4 days. Upon arrival we noticed no toilet paper and half the light bulbs burned out. The place was so dark I needed a flashlight to use the kitchen. We reported these issues immediately. They told us to use kitchen paper towels as toilet paper and did not respond to all the burned out light bulbs. We woke up every morning with the apartment hot and stuffy. The NEST thermostat is programmed to continually...

DoubleTree by Hilton Houston Medical Center Hotel & Suites

DoubleTree by Hilton Houston Medical Center Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent
"Was exactly what was needed for my family to stay together and connected while we we dealt with the primary reason for being in Houston's Medical District. Each day we came back to a beautiful, comfortable, clean and perfect environment and views. Had dinner together around the table after cooking a nice meal in our kitchen. Able to still have privacy in each of our separate bedrooms. The apartment was just perfect... almost as perfect as the chocolate chip walnut cookies handed out every night from the staff. Thank you for alleviating what could have been a very stressful few days."
