Thompson Houston, Part of Hyatt

Great Service, Lovely Breakfast — but Room Noise and In-Room Dining Could Improve I recently stayed at the Thompson Houston and overall had a great experience, especially thanks to the excellent service. Every staff member I interacted with was friendly, helpful, and professional. Their attention to detail really made me feel welcomed, and I was touched when they surprised me with a graduation cake — a thoughtful gesture I truly appreciated. The hotel breakfast was a highlight. The food was fresh and well-prepared, and once again, the service stood out. Dining in the morning felt like a treat thanks to the welcoming atmosphere. That said, there were a few downsides that affected my stay. The room was quite noisy, even late into the night. It was hard to relax or fall asleep with the amount of outside noise coming through. Also, I ordered in-room dining on two occasions. On the first day, everything was great. However, the next day the fries were noticeably soggier, the salad was just a bowl of greens with six tiny avocado cubes, and — most concerning — the aioli on the side looked like it had already been used. Overall, Thompson Houston left a positive impression on me, mostly due to its exceptional staff and quality breakfast. I hope they can improve the soundproofing and ensure consistency in their in-room dining service.

A perfect stay from start to finish From beginning to end, our stay was nothing short of amazing. The hotel had everything we needed—and even things we didn’t realize we’d want. Every corner of the property delivered top-notch service, and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Room service was quick, friendly, and the food was delicious. The rooftop pool? Hands down the best one we’ve seen out of all the Thompson hotels. It was the perfect spot to relax, take in the views, and feel like we were truly on vacation. We also dined at Sol 7, the hotel’s restaurant, and it was just as impressive. Eating poolside on the 7th floor somehow felt breezy and comfortable, even in the humidity. This place has officially become our go-to hotel—already looking forward to our next trip back!

One of the nicest hotel experiences I’ve had in years. Unique and beautiful… Really special.

Had an awful experience at the Thompson Hotel in Houston. From the moment I checked in to the moment I left, the staff—valet, front desk, everyone—were rude and unwelcoming. If you’re looking for a true luxury experience, this isn’t it. Save yourself the disappointment and book The Post Oak Hotel instead. That’s real five-star service.

Disappointing. Poor value. It’s new and clean, but pretty much a faux luxury hotel if you’ve experienced luxury hospitality. Located in a generic tower surrounded by parking lots. Awkward entrance sequence caused by elevators that do not connect directly from ground floor level to room level. Finishes in rooms are cheap. Elevator was audible from room. And to top it all off—and this is the biggest red flag that a property is not luxury—the guy at the reception desk asked if I was here for business or pleasure and after I said pleasure he asked only for one night? Well, actually we just change hotels every night to experience different hotels. But he kept prying for information. Not a good first impression.

Stay Elsewhere - Better Options in Area Do not spend your time at this “luxurious refuge/luxury oasis” as there are MUCH better options. Please give your time and money to the Houstonian, Four Seasons, or St. Regis. Pretty interiors don’t equate to paying more to stay at the listed hotels if you can’t provide service. From beginning to end The Thompson missed the mark. 2 parking options overnight - $55 for self right across from the hotel 5 ft away or $60 for valet (which meant parking my car right next to self park). Upon arrival at 2pm we went to the restaurant on-site for lunch. We left at 4:10pm. Between the 2 hours we ordered 2 salads with chicken and salmon. Took almost an hour for our first round of salads to come out - they completely messed up the order and it had to be sent back. They brought the same salads when we ordered different ones a second time. Forgot salmon and then brought it out completely raw. Left avocado off a salad that comes with avocado. Forgot fries. Entire thing was a mess. We utilized the on site car service to go to dinner. After drop off the driver tells us they don’t do pickup. Never mentioned their prior. It was no problem as I can operate ride share services - for someone older who couldn’t, they would have been stranded. Next morning AM yoga from 7:30-8:30 on the roof. Great experience, until 8:05 when they turned on the super loud techno music for the pool. You couldn’t even hear the instructor and this obviously took away the zen.
