5/5 Excellent
"Great stay in downtown Houston! Room was much bigger than I anticipated and the bathroom was great."
A verified traveler stayed at Hyatt Regency Houston
"I was visiting to attend the FIRST Robotics' Championships. The hotel is about a half mile from the venue and the walk is hefty for someone my age. The hotel offered a shuttle service but it left too late for my needs. I walked and did just fine.
I was impressed by the friendliness of the staff (except for one person). The person who checked me in was a Mr. N. Holiday III who was genuinely amazing. HIs charm won me over from the beginning.
I chose not to use daily housekeeping which suited me just fine. The room and facilities were spotless.
I did not avail myself of meals or drinks at the hotel because they were provided at the venue where I was volunteering, but on a future visit I just might have to make time to enjoy a cocktail at The Dispatch.
I would come back to this hotel in a heartbeat."
