We spent our 4-year wedding weekend anniversary with a staycation at The Houstonian Hotel, Club & Spa, and had the best & most relaxing time.
Henry and I usually take a trip outside of Houston for our anniversary, but due to my travel restrictions after having my gallbladder removed, we opted for a staycation at one of Houston’s best hotels. This was our first time staying at The Houstonian, and I’m sure it won’t be our last.
The Houstonian Hotel, Club & Spa is located on a 27-acre wooded oasis in the heart of Houston, near the Galleria and Memorial Park. It offers a rare opportunity to escape the city while remaining in the city. Guests of the Houstonian Hotel enjoy complimentary access to the exclusive Houstonian Club, one of the nation’s top private health clubs. The Trellis Spa welcomes guests with an award-winning day spa with treatment rooms, outdoor soaking pools, a garden, and hair and nail salons. There are also four on-site restaurants, classic bars, and various monthly events.
We had the opportunity to spend a weekend there, which was just the right amount of time for us. During our stay, we had breakfast and dinner at their restaurant, TRIBUTE, experienced a couples massage at the Trellis Spa, spent time in the spa’s private garden and soaking pools, enjoyed lunch at the Arbor Grill, got a couple of treatments at The Covery located in the Club, and walked on the hotel’s trails. The Houstonian is a resort-style hotel with plenty to offer, all without having to leave the property. Henry & I truly had the best time at this hotel. It was so nice to get away without having to travel far. Walking the trail had us forgetting we were in Houston. This hotel is beautiful inside & out, their staff is amazing to say the least & everything they have to offer is high quality. I’m so thankful to their team for inviting us in. If you’re ever traveling to Houston or looking for a place to have a staycation. I highly highly recommend you consider The Houstonian Hotel, Club & Spa.
