    Staff were all great. Eric’s restaurant staff was wonderful as well. LOTS OF CONSTRUCTION GOING ON ( July 2026)!!!!!!There was very little visibility/instruction provided as to how to get to the property. My gps took me to the area and I drove around for 1.5 hours trying to figure out how to get to the hotel. This was my first time in Houston. It was raining and very dark. The signs were not pointing in the right direction and the area to the garage said road closed. I was so disappointed. I then ended up on a street that lead to a very “interesting looking” part of town. I got lost called the property twice. The female who answered said she would send someone to meet me that didn’t happen. The other person basically just told me to use my GPS. This after I told him 10 times I was using the GPS. It appeared English was neither of their first language( not trying to be offensive. Maybe they didn’t understand what I was saying) . After waiting for the person to come meet me for about 20 minutes in this “interesting” neighborhood I made the mistake of calling Houston police. I was in full meltdown mode at this time because I was completely lost, unaware of my surroundings and didn’t feel safe. They gave me the run around and finally the dispatcher said he would send someone(7/23/26 approx 9pm—10pm). I waited for 45 minutes the police never showed up …wow …thanks for nothing Houston police!!!!!! I called the property again and this time I was able to speak to William at the front desk who became an instant life saver. Though the first 10 minutes he had to hear me meltdown, he was exercising as much patience as possible. William stayed in the phone and was my personal gps until I arrived. So thankful!!!!! Overall stay was good. I DID NOT like how dark the rooms were. I’m not understanding this new decision with hotels to have less light. I could barely see how to apply cosmetics in the bathroom it was so dark . Night reading, for me, was also a challenge.

    Always an amazing experience at the Hilton University of Houston hotel! It has always been my choice of hotel to stay at when I go to visit my daughter at the University of Houston. The associates are very friendly and always go above and beyond to make our stay more comfortable! The hotel is immaculate! The rooms are spacious and the beds are very comfortable! Breakfast isn’t included, but Eric’s restaurant on site serves delicious breakfast, lunch and dinner. There’s also a nice gym on the 3rd floor with up to date equipments. Overall, my family and I love this hotel! It can be expensive on some nights though!

    This hotel will be rated even higher once UH completes this massive construction project (in 2027) - the front entrance is completely blocked, and it’s confusing to know where to be dropped off due to detours and one-way streets. However, once you enter the hotel, it’s quite nice here, and the front desk staff is excellent.

    The hotel hence take advantage of this particular clientele to overcharge for they offer. The Hotel is old, the carpets are old, the AC unit not only old and very noisy but the air sanitation is questionable. The Amenities are poor, the checking/reception area is uninviting, they have those showcases of the hotel history, who gives a damn about their history, but no comfortable seating, no TVs, no continental breakfast, not even complimentary water or coffee/tea you find usually hotels of comparable stars. This is done in purpose to force patrons to use their cafeteria (Eric’s Restaurant which is a restaurant only in the sense that they over charge for their plates). Parking is a separate surcharge. The flagrant greed is apparent in that the hotel is staffed essentially by students in The Hospitality Département taking advantage of them and paying them peanuts without benefits. Add to all of that, the hotel, because it is part of the hospitality department of the university, may be benefitting from low or no state/federal taxes, low utilities bill, and low or no cost of the landscaping and beatification environment. That means taxe payers are subsidizing the hotel indirectly and paying higher prices for their stay than what they would pay at a comparable hotel, and getting shittier accomo

    We've stayed here a number of times and have always been happy; this time was not the same. We tried to check in at 4:30 and were told the room wasn't ready even though it was past check-in time. We ended up having to wait in the car until 5. They offered to waive parking, but then when we go the receipt, we found they had waived it and then re-added it. We had dinner at the restaurant, and it wasn't very good at all. My rare steak came out well done, and food quality wasn't anywhere near what it was in the past. Then the fire alarm went off and we had to evacuate while fire department investigated. Finally, water pressure in the shower was awful, it would get very strong, then very weak and alternate ever 3-5 seconds the entire time, like the pump couldn't keep up. The shower didn't drain well either, so you were standing in an inch or more of water waiting for the pressure to come back enough to wash your hair. I think we'll likely look for something else next time.

Hotel is ON the University of Houston campus that uses some students for different areas of work, teaching hands-on learning which is cool for them. If u have business on campus, perfect spot. Area around the campus, pretty sketchy and not advised to walk around there at night.
