IHGMission-inspired lakeside hotel
The hotel brings Spanish mission style to the water, where cabanas and fire pits line a heated lakeside pool.
What it’s good at
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Beside Cathedral Lakes east of Interstate 45, with The Woodlands a short drive away.
The rooms
Guest rooms are finished in warm earth tones. The four suites add wet bars and deep soaking tubs.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The heated pool looks over Cathedral Lakes, with a water fountain and wooden pergolas lining the stone deck.
Restaurant
CRUDO
Mornings start with Katz coffee. By dinner, the kitchen serves Texas beef burgers, wings, and Houston craft beer.
At the table
The covered poolside bar sits beneath exposed timber beams, serving craft cocktails and light bites to the terrace.
How it began
Esperanto Developments modeled the building on the Dominican, Jesuit, and Franciscan missions of colonial Texas.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene

Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
