Stayed at the Magnolia for two nights during Labor Day weekend. The location is great, convenient to Minute Maid Park and many downtown restaurants. The room was well appointed and comfortable. I did find the bathroom to be very small, though. We thoroughly enjoyed the cocktail hour and milk and cookies in the evenings. The free breakfast was okay, nothing... more

This hotel is just beautiful. Wonderful atmosphere, lots of extras included - breakfast, happy hour, and bedtime cookie bar. I got upgraded for the same low rate and the room is huge and beautiful. The hotel is right downtown with lots of restaurants and bars nearby. I would definitely stay here again!! more

My husband and I needed a nice trip away for a night and I though I would surprise him. After extensive research of hotels in Houston, I found great reviews and decided to go with it! Houston downtown is not very impressive, but it is a great place to stay if you want to go to the bars or the... more

I recently traveled to Houston for a friends wedding. The reception was at the Magnolia and I stayed there as well. Check in very fast and efficient. Check in dude was not the nicest in the world, but he wasn't rude either. Just going through the motions of the day I guess. For checkout they have an "express" where you... more

I love the Magnolia for many reasons. It is a beautiful historical landmark which has been transformed into a supremely unique, classy and 1st class Hotel. I have stayed there atleast 14 nights in the last year. It is located in the heart of downtown Houston, one block from Main Street, on Texas Ave.-within walking distance of several high-scale restaurants,... more

Check in was a little slow with only one front desk person. Stayed on the 16th floor and had NO noise. Smaller size of lobby and hallways makes for a... more

First of all, we prefer Boutique hotels with no kids, so if you are a couple seeking a romantic retreat (like us) or traveler wanting to stay away from families/children - this is not the place for you. We went on Labor Day weekend and there was an Astro's game going on just down the street, so there were lots... more

Stayed there on a business trip and was very pleased with the hotel's decor and cleanliness. I could swear I could smell the scent of magnolias when I entered the hotel lobby. The hotel also has a great bar where my colleagues and I enjoyed after a long day of business meetings. The bathroom was beautiful - marble everywhere! Very... more

My wife won tickets to see Chris Daughtry at a venue near this hotel so we booked a room. It was a great stay. We arrived late but had no problem getting a room. The staff was friendly but check in was somewhat slow. There were four customers ahead of us and yet it took about twenty minutes to get... more
