I like a hotel that's not afraid of a bit of fringe, a splash of gold damask, a touch of refined decadence. So many hotels I see opt for the zero-risk approach to traditionalism: conservative furniture with American Colonial or neoclassical elements -- what I call the George-Washington-slept-here look.

This is where classic meets contemporary. Hotel Icon is a boutique hotel that is housed within a rehabbed historical building built in 1911 with modern upgrades.

Located on Main Street, there are endless dining options whether it be the hotel's Voice restaurant or many others within walking distance.

Hip amenities in classic surroundings give this hotel its advantage.

Room was nice and big with great views of downtown Houston. Hotel staff was very nice and helpful. The only negative was no lock on the bathroom door. Good location to go do any number of things in town.

This lovely hotel is in Galleria area. The premises count with 135 welcoming bedrooms. Travellers will not be bothered during their stay, as this is not a pet-friendly hotel.
