The Sam Houston Hotel opened in 1924 as a luxury hotel with in-room bathrooms and telephones. Today, the 10-story hotel combines classic architecture with contemporary design.
In the lobby, whimsical lighting fixtures shaped like the San Jacinto Monument and a full-wall mural depicting the Battle of San Jacinto blend with an attractive and comforting chocolate brown, cream and ice blue color scheme. The award-winning 17 restaurant serves American cuisine with a unique flair featuring seasonal dishes and decadent desserts. Guests can unwind at the Sam Bar, a sophisticated watering hole that serves delicious cocktails.
Three meeting rooms and one outdoor function area are ideal for meetings and special events. Event rooms feature the latest technology and are naturally lit and accented with historical artwork.

Standard service at the Sam Houston Hotel includes all of the things that discriminating travelers have come to expect, such as complimentary shoe shine, complimentary access to a nearby fitness center, complimentary car service in the downtown area, wireless Internet access in public spaces and spa and concierge services.

Each of the Sam Houston Hotel's 97 guestrooms has a city or ballpark view and features complimentary high-speed Internet access, CD/DVD player and contemporary décor accented by granite-walled bathrooms with glassed-in showers. Guests can enjoy the latest film flick on a 27-inch flat screen television before sinking into the comfort of 400-thread count linens and feather pillows. Data port telephone, laptop computer safe with charger outlet and twice-daily maid service complete the picture.
