Find the Cheap Houston Hotels

I visited the Mokara spa again for the first time in years and it did not disappoint. I relaxed in the jacuzzi, and used the walk in rainfall shower before receiving an 80 min massage. I loved it! I specified what I wanted out of my spa visit on the form I filled out and I got exactly that- an acupressure, stress relieving restful massage experience. I believe my masseuse’s name was Dan and he had a gentle yet firm touch. He was quite skilled with acupressure points and provided great customer service. I had a wonderful experience. After my massage I enjoyed time in the relaxation area (my favorite spot), lying on a private couch sipping my champagne and listening to music in my headphones. Next time I may take a dip in the beautiful outdoor pool. A few growth areas for the spa were: scrub the bathroom floor tiles in the corners and floor boards, replace the rusted Kleenex tissue box on the sink in the bathroom and remind all technicians to keep their nails cut very low. Other than those small things my spa experience was excellent.

Good good good good good

The bathroom was kind of “grubby” and the mattress and pillows were so uncomfortable that we contemplated leaving during the night and finding somewhere else

Very welcoming, and very clean, we got to stay on the 13th floor with a great view, and beautiful room and bathroom. We will be coming back!

I didn't have breakfast at the hotel, I don't know how it tastes, but the environment is still very good.

Room size is good, clean and no smell; the environment is prefect, nice decoration. The pool is nice, but not use due to cold weather at this moment. The experience is fine.

Everyone was so nice, especially Maranda. Maranda seems to have a 'Can I make your stay great' gene. Marriott has never disappointed me, this stay reminded me why I am glad I joined the Bonvoy family. Marriott hires good people like Maranda, glad she was here this weekend.

Just finished a very quick 24 hour stay at Post Oak Hotel. We stayed here for the Bears vs. Texans game. The location was very convenient to the stadium. Everything about this hotel is high-end and exudes class. While we barely scratched the surface of all the things available here, we really enjoyed our stay. We did have a chance to eat the Craft FnB. Besides the tap being down, everything here was great. The wings were unreal. The hotel lobby resembles what you expect while visiting Las Vegas but in a good way. Like a small private Vegas hotel feel. The rooms were very nice, with the bathrooms being extraordinarily nice. We also had breakfast in our room which was beautiful and delicious. Great hotel!

I'm currently on my last night of a five night stay. I was so looking forward to staying here as the reviews are generally quite favorable and I usually like the JW Marriott brand properties. Unfortunately, my own experience during this stay was not very good. The hotel seems quite busy (long waits for the elevator some days) so they do seem to be getting traffic through the property. My suite was nice...not extraordinary...but comfortable. As far as staff go, most are quite helpful and friendly which is good. Now the problems. I saw very little to discern this property from a standard Sheraton or Marriott. Nothing about it felt like ”luxury”. It didn't have those extra touches one would expect from a JW. The bar soap in the bathroom is so tiny that only a sliver is left after two showers. It was the size soap you would expect to get at a Motel 6. The Griffin Lounge was a big disappointment. I went the first morning for breakfast and it seemed like a standard Sheraton lounge breakfast offering. Nothing refined or special about it at all. Both the presentation and the quality of the food offerings were severely under par. I never returned after that even though I was entitled to get it free every day as an Ambassador Elite member. I ate breakfast outside of the hotel for the remainder of my stay. Also, after the lousy breakfast on day 1 , I never attended the evening reception so I cannot comment on what that is like. The most glaring problem at this property is that when you call down with a service request, usually no-one answers the phone. You want to have your car brought around? No-one responds. You want to arrange for housekeeping to clean your room? No-one responds. You want laundry picked up? No-one responds. You want to know why your laundry was not delivered as promised? No-one responds. All the above things happened to me. Out of a total of 18-20 calls down with service requests, the phone was actually answered only twice. That is a shockingly poor service fulfillment failure rate. Imagine, when you want to use your car, there is literally no way to get that process started from your room...because no-one answers the phone calls. I am stunned by what a failed process they have for handling calls from the guest rooms. I actually complained to the front desk about this. The guy says the phones are answered by staff behind the scenes. However it is that they manage it, I can tell them their process doesn't work. I get to Houston fairly frequently but I doubt I would return to the JW Marriott Downtown. The combination of the sub-par Griffin lounge coupled with staff inability to answer phone calls, deems this a no-go property for me. Interestingly, this is my second JW stay for me since the pandemic started. Both were big disappointments. Perhaps the JW brand is cutting back on quality and services generally...effectively moving JW properties closer to Sheraton/Marriott standards. Overall,
