Delightful place to stay in the theater district
This place is fabulous. It is not like all the cookie-cutter hotel chains. Each room has unique artwork, which is also found throughout the hotel. Free snacks in the room! Sparkling wine at check in! The complimentary breakfast is pretty good. Overnight parking is expensive but you can park in a local lot instead. I loved staying here.

Lancaster
We had a lovely stay at the Lancaster. Check in was swift and precise, the room was spotless, and the complementary sacks a welcome surprise.
Location next to Jones Hall meant it was only a 2 minute walk to the event.
Bar was small but the staff attentive and fast.
We will definitely come back.
