Where it shines
What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
The Memorial City version is clean-lined and bright, inspired in part by the mid-century modernism of Palm Springs.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Located along the Katy Freeway in Memorial City, the hotel sits moments from sprawling shopping at Memorial City Mall and commercial towers.
The rooms
Interiors pair bright modern lines with C.O. Bigelow amenities, while signature concept suites showcase marble bathrooms, whimsical decor, and private balconies.
The pool and sauna
Bring a swimsuit.
Submerged loungers line the heated terrace pool, and an infrared sauna sits steps away inside.
The spa
Dimly lit treatment suites host customized facials, holistic bodywork, and body wraps beside candlelit soaking tubs.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Tipping Point Restaurant & Terrace serves regional American dishes and craft cocktails beneath suspended copper pitchers.
How it began
Debuting in 2017, the property was created as a breezy, modern West Houston contrast to the brand's ornate Museum District predecessor.
