This hotel does not meet the Renaissance standard. It is an older hotel that needs updating. The service at the hotel restaurant was exceeding slow, such that it makes up wonder if the kitchen was in another building. At lunch, when we were the only 2 persons in the entire restaurant, we waited over 30 mins for a simple burger... more

I wish I could write glowing remarks about this place, but I am so frustrated. If you are a business traveler that needs wireless connection (and not LAN), do not stay here. Wireless is available only in the lobby...expect to work in the lobby (or check into another hotel). more

We visit Houston to see family about once a year. Given the proximity to ther home and the great weekend rates, we always stay at the Renaissance. The rooms are large and the bed is very comfortable. The Health Club is more than adequate. On our last visit, breakfast was included. The food was delicious and the staff was excellent.... more

As always, the standard excellent rooms at a Renaissance. Its located a bit south of the city which is OK if you don't want to be downtown. The only thing i was less than happy with was the food service. For a Renaissance, the food quality was pretty average. more

Hotel is located just off the freeway yet very quiet, can't even hear the cars from the rooms. Only 10 mins from both Downtown & the Galleria. Hotel Shuttle Bus very usefull & has regular tranfers to the Galleria. Hotel lobby was pleasant & Staff are very friendly & there was always someone at the reception, breakfast was quite nice... more

I wanted to write this review after I remembered the great customer service I received during my night at the Renaissance. This review is a little late (stayed there Aug 2003) but I really enjoyed my stay. I booked this room since I wanted to have a special place for my wedding night (flew out the next day to Jamaica).... more

We recently visited the Houston area, mostly to visit Space Center Houston, and due to the reviews in TA we picked this hotel - we stayed 3 nights. Finding the hotel property went fairly well, though the entrance from the road kind of comes up on you quick - stay alert. And, like I guess many people have mentioned, finding... more

Great beds, large bath with excellent toiletries, good location with easy access to Rice Village and freeways. Theater, shops and restaurants attached and Starbucks located in the lobby. Two parties with bands were in progress when entering from the parking garage but the room on 18th floor was very quiet. Easy check in and check out. more

The stay turned out ok but I was truly disgusted at first. We had trouble finding the hotel as others have mentioned. The vast concrete parking structure is a nightmare. I gave up and used the valet. We checked in and were happy, felt the room was nice and settled in and headed out to dinner. The next morning my... more
