JW Marriott Houston Downtown
Houston, United States · ★★★★★ · 9.0/10 Exceptional · guest rating
Luxury hotel in downtown Houston, set in a historic 1910 building a short walk from Discovery Green, with a spa, gym, restaurant and bar.
The JW Marriott Houston Downtown occupies the former Texas Commerce Bank building, constructed in 1910, and its restored lobby keeps high ceilings and original architectural details. That blend of historic construction and current services is what most sets it apart in the city center, on Main Street, near the Theater District and the city's stadiums and performance venues. Its location suits both business trips and leisure stays.
The hotel has a spa, a gym, a restaurant, a bar and room service, along with laundry and a 24-hour front desk. Pets are accepted and there is electric vehicle charging on site. The rooms and sitting areas in the photos have a modern, restrained design. It is best to confirm the hours and conditions of each service with the hotel before you travel.
Why stay here
- Luxury hotel in a historic 1910 building
- In the heart of downtown Houston, next to a metro station
- Discovery Green and the Theater District a few minutes on foot
- Spa, gym, restaurant and bar inside the hotel
- Tip: ask for a high floor for a better view of the city
The setting
The building stands in the heart of downtown Houston, a neighborhood of offices, theaters and stadiums, with a nearby metro station. Inside, a classic-feeling lobby gives way to contemporary rooms: roomy beds, sitting areas and modern bathrooms. A high floor usually offers better views of the skyline, something worth requesting when you book, subject to availability. The nearby metro makes it easy to reach other parts of the city.
What we like
- Historic 1910 building with a restored lobby
- Central location near the metro, Discovery Green and the Theater District
- Spa, gym, restaurant and bar in the same hotel
- Stadiums and venues about ten to twelve minutes on foot
- Pets accepted and electric vehicle charging
Worth knowing
- The setting is urban and office-oriented: not a hotel for those seeking a quiet retreat
- On weekends with games or events, downtown tends to be busier
Don't miss
Walk to Discovery Green, Houston's urban park, about seven minutes away. If your visit coincides with a game or a concert, Daikin Park and the Toyota Center are a short walk from the hotel.
