Frommer's "With the guest rooms, the designers have succeeded in creating a space that is functional for the business traveler while having the feel of a "pad" with all the accompanying informality." Full review
Lonely Planet "After shopping at the Galleria, you can lay your head in high-fashion style." Full review
Star Service "This large-scale independent design-hotel answers most travelers' calls for a calmer, cuddlier version of a sharp-toothed W Hotel operation in oil-rich Houston." Full review

An unusual twist is the staff training, as each member can handle any guest request, from extra bedding to theater tickets.

""Fabulous" for "weekend getaways" but "convenient" for business travel, this Galleria venue (about a 10-minute drive from Downtown) offers assorted rooms and suites."
Fodor's "With a peaceful water garden in its atrium lobby and grounds with a 2-acre lake, being at the Omni is not like being in the city at all." Full review
