Reviews
The hotel is generally well-liked for its quiet and serene atmosphere, friendly staff, and clean, beautiful rooms. However, several guests have expressed dissatisfaction with the expensive valet parking, lack of self-parking options, and issues with the rooms such as old furniture, broken air conditioning, and slow or noisy elevators.

The property was beautiful. Valet staff were always kind and welcoming. Front desk staff were very minimalist and unwelcoming, unfortunately almost dismissive. I acknowledge it’s an only hotel however did not expect the taps to ring at a high pitched rate whenever we ran the hot water. All in all the hotel was beautiful but the experience was ok at best.

Some items in the room are dusty, like the movable mirror on the wall, the tissue holder, the table. Missing slippers and bathrobe maybe you have to request that

Room and bathroom were spotless. Bed was excellent, very comfortable--linens and pillows were great and fresh. Bathroom towels were high quality like new. Lobby was great place to hang out, comfortable, large and quiet. Free breakfast was excellent with omelette station, fresh fruit, ect. Restaurant was very good and convenient. Location is best for downtown business travel.

What I liked about the property was it was very clean. The staff was very nice. The valet parking was nice. The gentleman were very nice. The location was very convenient. What I disliked about this place was the little refrigerator in our room did not work. So our drinks were hot the whole time. The hotel was a little back dated and old but still was nice. We had a city view room which costed us extra but the view wasn’t so great. I couldn’t take good pictures looking out the window due to the window being really dirty. They need to clean the inside and outside of the windows.

Beautiful hotel and rooms! Staff were helpful and kind! The only thing was the jetted tub didn’t work and that was the entire reason I booked there and it was a one night stay (11 yr. anniversary) We let them know and stayed another night, they moved up to a room with working jetted tub and compensated us with strawberries and champagne.

Very big cockroach in the room, no bathtub which was advertised on the room we reserved. There was no food available for those with celiac, and even the food that was edible for celiacs was served on top of bread. The bacon and sausage.

Also valet parking is super expensive at $58.00 a night. We will stay there again because it’s a beautiful hotel and convenient to get around. I wish they wouldn’t nickel and dime us to death.

My wife and I love this hotel! It's so unique and the atmosphere is amazing. It's also perfectly situated smack-dab in the middle of Houston. The breakfast buffet is really good and a great deal for the cost. The wait staff are very helpful as well.

Had a stay booked after midnight. Front desk said they wouldn't accept my reservation. So I paid them directly to stay the night. Was not resolved so I paid for 2 nights to stay just one night at the property. No attempt was made by front desk to assist.

I liked this hotel. The shower was pretty awesome. It had two shower heads but no bathtub faucet. The room was large and wide for two people. the only thing that was annoying is the air conditioner always sounded like someone was opening my door when it started up but there is no way in summer months to stop the air conditioner in Texas it’s so hot! also it was pointed away from the bed so it was nice that it wasn’t blasting while we were sleeping. The location was central to places I wanted to go in downtown and river oaks area. I would totally stay there again!

This hotel was super cool. Love that Marriott maintained the historical feel of the property. A little disappointed with the restaurant. There are a lot of really cool food choices in the area and it would be nice if this was one of them. The breakfast that you have to pay for is the equivalent of a holiday inn or another “free” breakfast property. The bar drinks are awesome though, and totally separate from the restaurant. For as expensive as this property is, I expected more from the restaurant. And the parking is crazy expensive. But overall would definitely stay again.

Julia from housekeeping at Hotel ICON is truly top-tier—easily among the best I’ve encountered. Her work was meticulous, consistent, and clearly done with pride. The room was spotless, well-organized, and thoughtfully cared for every single day. What really sets Julia apart is her professionalism and attention to detail. She went above and beyond what’s expected in housekeeping, and it showed. It’s clear she takes her role seriously and genuinely cares about the guest experience. Hotel ICON is fortunate to have Julia on their housekeeping team. Employees like her are the reason guests return and recommend
