    Truly enjoyed Houston, the hotel was great and pretty in a luxury car anywhere in the downtown area. The room was bright and quiet with a shower, a hairdryer, and robes in the functional bathroom. The property was in a marvellous position really close to night life. There was an attached restaurant nearby.

    Big windows, a coffee table, and a chair in the room and the exceptionally comfortable bed. Particularly nice views of city. Wonderful location in the theatre district, in the busy area. Also, easy access to Jpmorgan Chase Tower.

    Cozy room with a nice bath tub, all the essentials and even champagne 🥂. Quick and convenient check-in process, and they let us have a late check-out too.

    The breakfast at The Lancaster Hotel was delicious and amazing, with a great variety including waffles, healthy options like salmon, and various breads. The staff, from the doorman onwards, were courteous and very welcoming. The hotel's central setting near the theaters made it a convenient choice for my next stay in Houston.

    Marvellous location, we were very close to a museum, that celebrates the best contemporary art made by artists with a Texas Connection, and the center.

    Fairly large reasonable value hotel with a marvellous location next to the theatre, restaurants, Buffalo Bayou, Discovery Green, and Houston's extensive tunnels and downtown locations. Outstanding eggs, sausages, bacon, cheese and meats in the morning. Bright rooms with champagne and the same refined style and all the good things and incredible staff.
