My girlfriend suprised me with an overnight stay for my birthday. We found the hotel staff nice and friendly. Valet parking is $25 a day with unlimited in/out privileges each day. They have a shuttle service available for area venues. My girlfriend purchased the "Romance package" to add to the occasion. The room had silk rose petals spread from the... More

I just arrived at the Alden hotel. I have 30 minutes before I have to meet friends at Ginger Man in the village, and then dinner reservations at Spindletop. When we arrived at the Alden, the room's phone, refrigerator, shower, and iron were all broken. As I'm writing this, I'm still waiting for a new iron to be brought to... More

We stayed here on 12/31; booked their full New Year's Eve package, which was a great deal! I asked for a room on an upper floor, no smoking (be sure to specify, they do have a smoking floor, but we never smelled a hint of smoke on the 10th floor). The Sam Bar that is attached to the hotel was... More

I have nothing against the hotel or its facilities. Its the pesky parking incident and how the manager dealt with it, which made me give 2 stars (I didn't know how else to say how I felt). We were there as a group of 15 people from our office, for our Holiday get together. After parking my car in the... More

Very impressed with this Hotel, rooms were a good size, and well appointed.The Hotel itself was very quiet when we were there as we stayed between Christmas and New Year so it lacked a little atmosphere in the bar and communal areas. For the most part the staff were great especially the concierges Oscar and Max, who were both really... More

I travel frequently and I live out of hotels. The Alden-Houston Hotel is fantastic. The amenities and the service was really unparalled. The staff went out of there way to make sure I was taken care of. It is in the middle of downtown Houston and I had a great view and within walking distance to Allen Parkway running trails.... More

The staff and accommodations were excellent! My wife and I truly enjoyed ourselves. We were treated like royalty. I stated to the stay that our stay was a weekend get-away and the management (Jessica Howell & staff) turned it up a notch. We are considering staying again at the beginning of the year for wife’s birthday. The food was delicious... More
