Hotel Derek Houston Galleria

My stay at the hotel was a wonderful experience. From the moment I arrived, Courtney and Mr. Kyrus made me feel truly welcome and right at home. My sincerest thanks and congratulations to both of them. The common areas felt extremely comfortable and beautifully designed. The room was also very cozy and inviting. As a small note, I would kindly suggest checking the lamp outlets, as only one out of three was working. What truly deserves special applause are the incredible Crabtree & Evelyn amenities, I honestly wish I could have purchased them. They are simply exquisite.

⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ My cousin and I had a great stay at the DoubleTree and really appreciated the excellent service throughout our visit. The staff went above and beyond by upgrading us to a full queen suite because I needed a freezer to store ice cream I was flying back to Chicago with—such a thoughtful and much-appreciated gesture. The location is very convenient, the surrounding area is nice, and everyone we interacted with at the front desk and bar was friendly and welcoming. While the rooms/bathroom/kitchen could use an update to feel a bit more modern and new, they were very clean, cozy, and comfortable overall. The only downside was that parking is a bit pricey, and we wish it had been included with the stay and they could do better in providing more inclusive non pork items for breakfast such as turkey bacon or turkey/beef sausage links or patties. Overall, we truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely consider staying here again.

I had an amazing stay at the DoubleTree by Hilton Houston Galleria, and I want to give a special shoutout to Ginita at the front desk. She truly went above and beyond to make my birthday feel special and surprised me with a room upgrade. Her kindness, professionalism, and warm attitude made me feel genuinely valued as a guest. The hotel itself was clean, comfortable, and perfectly located near the Galleria. And of course, you can’t forget the famous warm DoubleTree cookies at check-in, such a simple touch, but it really makes you feel welcomed and sets the tone for the stay. Thank you, Ginita, and thank you DoubleTree for such a wonderful experience. I will definitely be back!

Fridge not functioning correctly would not get cold, my food spoiled. Micro was hard to close same w dishwasher but bottom line they worked. Valet parking staff was kinda rude, told us we could not park in front on the hotel to unpack! This is an extended stay, like a mini apt hotel room we had groceries, luggage, little kid,etc. Then they told me my truck would not fit on their garage and that i had to park on the back of the garage aka employee parking lot at the end of the block very sketchy and dark, for the same price of gate protected selfparking on the garage, insane. Talk about inconvenience! Come to find out there were taller vehicles in that garage raised suspension trucks and jeeps! Guest greeters at door were too busy talking among themselves to greet, some of us.The price of this hotel was bc of the location not bc of the service and amenities. Pool was dirty w lime, pool chairs broken, no towels. Room had stains on rugs I was expecting alot better for a "4 star hotel" I didn't find the 3rd nor the 4th start anywhere. Lobby looks nice but that's it. I didn't even go to the galleria bc I was so over the whole experience but it was too late to cancel. I would say try somewhere else if you want to stay at a nice place. This is the same as any hotel on the expressway but w a balcony. I'm a Hilton honors member and was so disappointed.

Was her for a workshop 2/21-2/22. Front desk and staff were very friendly. Room was very comfortable and clean. While we had a pleasent experience, during our conference the AC in conference room went out, making it a little warm and temperature challenging for us bodyworkers in there who were learning manual therapy techniques. Coffee can definitely use an upgrade. One disappointing moment was when I ordered an espresso martini and the bartender upgraded my vodka to kettle one (without asking), up charging my drink from $19 to $23 (not including her tip $4) that’s one expensive drink.
