Although the location was good, the hotel is old, run down and dirty. The toilet in our room was broken, they put us in a different room at our adamant request, and the toilet in our new room was on it's last leg. The carpets were filfy and the rug in our bathroom had hair and dirt all over it.... More

I chose this hotel because it was central and naively I thought I could reach everything more easily. This is not the case in Houston where you need a car. If you have any problem for walking, you must consider that there is no lift in the hotel. A help is however provided to bring the suitcase in your room... More

I've read mixed reviews about this hotel, negative being mostly about the reservation process. I thought making reservations 7 months in advance will be good enough to avoid any problems. After numerous phone calls and emails back and forth (yes, online system didn't work), I had my reservations. I called the hotel again to confirm and was assured that I'm... More

We stayed at the Athens Hotel recently when my wife was there for the Sweet Adelines Competition. The hotel was close to the Toyota Centre were the competition was taking place. We found our suite to be clean and confortable, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Price of suite included breakfast. There was a good variety of food to... More

Very competitively priced hotel near Houston's convention center (a walk in fact). Nearby is the House of Blues and a few decent places to eat and shopping. Not a luxury option, though clean and comfortable. My room had a small kitchen area (medium-sized fridge, sink, countertop and microwave and coffee making equipment). I would certainly rank it as a good... More

Much less expensive than other places in the area. Nice short walk to House of Blues. Kitchen seemed recently refreshed (appliances etc). We liked having a ceiling fan. If you're disabled, be aware that there's no elevator. All the drawers were full of previous guests' trash and personal effects. Surprise items were left planted around the room, showing further the... More

This is a small hotel located really close to the restaurant and shopping area. I went to Houston for an academic residency, and the service was great. Since it is a small place, the hotel personnel was able to distinguish who was a guest and who wasn't. That gave me some comfort and made me feel a little more secure.... More

I enjoyed my stay at Athens Hotel Suites very much: very neat and perfectly clean rooms, absolutely perfect location, very friendly, helpful and lovely stuff, good breakfasts, I couldn't ask for more! Highly recomended, I'm sure going to go back there next time I'm in Houston. More

We had booked the Athens Hotel more than 7 months prior to our May 2011 travel. However, they did not honor our reservation and claimed that we had been notified that there were no room. I had a "guaranteed reservation" for that time period, just no room. It reminds me of the old Jerry Seinfeld skit, where you can take... More
