Great hotel

The hotel smells great and the staff is wonderful. Beds are extremely comfortable. Second time here and i would definitely recommend! Bathroom lighting sucks and shower was good pressure but could have been better if the shower thing pulled all the way up. Bath was filling up as I showered you get the point. Room 630

The top 3 for Whitehall Houston during my stay. 1) The staff is WONDERFUL!! Very professional, greeted me every time I entered the lobby area and valet station. If I called with a request it was given the attention required at that time, no delay. 2) The appearance in the lobby, loading area, and hotel restaurants had modern finishes that gave hints of upscale and comfort. 3) The hotel had a peaceful atmosphere; very quiet but inviting.

2 night business stay downtown

Business trip 2 nice stay. Close enough to downtown meeting locations and easy commute to airport. Rooms seem a little dated but lots of onsite amenities restaurant, nice outdoor bar. Staff was extremely friendly always said hi or welcome back when I came through the lobby. WiFi worked great throughout the property. Perfect for a 2 night business stay.

Nobody cleaned my room. Parking was expensive, room was outdated, hotel gym had a huge hole in the ceiling, employees did not communicate well with one another about our needs and request. Incorrect information was giving on multiple occasions by these two staff no microwave in the rooms or anywhere in the facility available for hotel guest. I will not be rooming with the Whitehall again 3/10

Loved our stay thanks to John. We were having a Christmas staycation and the hotel was beautifully decorated. It was quiet and clean with WiFi and affordable breakfast. I got a very upscale vibe from it although they didn’t advertise it as such. We walked to a couple of food places and staff was again, kind and hospitable.
