The Best Hotels in Houston, USA

The StarTripper Journal presents the best places to stay in Houston, both international luxury and boutique choices.
Our team in Houston are native born Americans. They love to travel, they love America and they love to introduce you to the best restaurants and hotels.

Houston, alive with energy and rich in diversity, a dynamic mix of imagination, talent and first-class attractions that makes it a world-class city. Houston is home to a vibrant economy, beautiful surroundings and a population full of optimism and spirit that turned it from swampland into the fourth-largest city in the U.S., a very popular international destination in the south, near the Mexican Gulf.

Everything is big, from the towering skyscrapers to the city's prominence in business. Even the architecture makes big, bold statements. With a thriving business centre, the city has become increasingly cosmopolitan, with an influx of diverse ethnic groups and a strong emphasis on opera, ballet, symphony and theatre.

The midday heat is easily escaped inside the numerous attractions and shopping areas, particularly in the pedestrian-friendly 6.5-mile underground city.

We recommend shopping. Houston offers something to fit every budget, from the exclusive shops in Houston's Uptown area to the outlet malls just outside the City. And try one of the countless restaurants available, offering cuisines in everything from Tex Mex and South American to French and Middle Eastern.

We do love this city, where everything is big, and big is beautiful.
