Lonely Planet "Sleek yet low-key, the smallish rooms at this historic 1923 property have a contemporary decor done in all-grey."
Travel + Leisure "An understated counterpoint to its ravishing neighbor, Hotel Icon, the Alden is an exciting player in Houston's downtown revival." Full review
Frommer's "The decor is modern, and I use "modern" in the best of senses -- sleek, uncluttered interiors that seek simplicity but avoid the "lab" look, which always leaves me with a chill." Full review

Fodor's "At first glance, this tower in an office complex may seem all business, but it's attached to a Starbucks and the underground Greenway Plaza shops." Full review
Gayot "The 382 guest rooms have been designed with comfort and convenience in mind, and the decor tends toward the minimal, in shades of tan and cream."
