The Houstonian Hotel Club & Spa

On 18 acres of woodland, this refined hotel, part of which was once the residence of President George H.W. Bush, lies 0.8 miles from Memorial Park Golf Course, and 2.6 miles from The Galleria shopping mall.

Plush rooms and suites come with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the surrounding woods, flat-screen TVs and coffeemakers.

Dining options include an upscale restaurant, a cafe and a lively poolside grill. There's also a bar. The fitness club has 3 pools, a rock-climbing wall, a boxing ring and 8 tennis courts. Other amenities include a spa (fee), meeting facilities and free transportation to The Galleria.

A place of tranquility, luxury, and elegance. When it comes to Houston hotels, there truly is nothing like The Houstonian.
