My colleague goes to Hotel Granduca (HG) for meetings and lunches, and after my time there last week, I can see why! The hotel is beautiful, old world, elegant, and classy. The team at HG are friendly and attentive, but never intrusive. The WiFi is strong and the accommodations provide great options for meetings or quiet work. The real treat came when lunch was served. We were provided with a gourmet meal at the prices of a quality but reasonably priced restaurant. The food was delicious, and as silly as it sounds, they do this crumbled crouton thing on their Caesar salad that adds that extra unique flavor and mouth feel that has stayed with me since I ate there. I can see why my colleague spends so much time there, and I hope to spend more time in the future. I know it's silly, but the restrooms are beautiful, and they have hand towels to dry your hands after you wash them. You just can't go back to paper towels after that.

We decided to have a staycation at Hotel Granduca for our wedding anniversary. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted and provided with quick, courteous service. The hotel is beautifully maintained, and no matter where we went, there was always someone ready to welcome us and offer assistance. After heading back from dinner. We enjoyed cocktails at the bar—the drinks were excellent, and the service was fast and attentive. The next morning, we had breakfast at Remi. The dining area was spotless and well-kept, service was attentive, and the food portions were generous. Everything we ordered was delicious, and the coffee was fresh and flavorful. Overall, our stay was outstanding. The price was very fair for the experience, and Hotel Granduca truly feels like a hidden gem in Houston. We highly recommend it!

We always have a fantastic stay here! They recently completed a remodeling as of April (so I'm told). The lobby is very upscale and rich with a very high-end decor. The rooms are very spacious and well-appointed. The beds are some of the most comfortable I have ever slept on. All of the staff are very kind, polite, and helpful. They all make you feel very much at home. It is such a classy, intimate atmosphere. Even traveling with a toddler, they make you feel very welcomed. The restaurant serves excellent fare, we had the breakfast service this morning and our food was absolutely delicious. There are no shortage of options in Houston especially in the surrounding area, but it is hard to beat the quality and value you get staying here. It truly feels like a home away from home. The only critique I can even think of would probably relate to Internet. I got very slow download speeds on my laptop. For checking email and general browsing, I'm sure it's more than adequate. If you're looking for an elegant, upscale hotel in the heart of Houston that is in a fabulous location then look no further!

Hotel Granduca is my favorite place to stay in Houston, and I have just returned from another wonderful visit. Every detail of this hotel is so thoughtful, the decor is really beautiful. The staff are very welcoming and friendly, we had great service. Granduca has a special and unique vibe being an independent luxury hotel, and is the only Leading Hotels of the World property in Houston. Highly recommend!

If you’re looking to plan your next event or gathering, look no further than Hotel Granduca. From start to finish, their team made our book launch celebration seamless and unforgettable. We hosted our event in the beautiful Library, but the hotel offers many versatile spaces that can accommodate all types of gatherings. We had the pleasure of working with Briana, who had every detail perfectly organized before we even arrived. Troy was fantastic throughout the evening, ensuring everything ran smoothly. And our server, Nikia, went above and beyond—she was absolutely amazing, taking care of every single one of our guests with such attentiveness and grace. Thank you to the entire Hotel Granduca team for making our night so special! We can’t wait to work with you again.

Two weeks ago I stayed at the Hotel Graduca and my vehicles was broken into. The back window was shattered and the items that were in the back of my car stolen. The hotel did a great service and had my window replaced and paid me for the items that were stolen. They were great to work with and LOVED that they took care of everything!

A mix of feelings about this 5-star hotel. Upon arrival, we were dazzled by the tasteful décor, with beautiful paintings that began the experience we were about to have—the Western Experience. The room impressed us with its spaciousness, the bathroom, and the kitchen/coffee area. When we arrived, we received a tray with fruit and a lovely welcome note. While we waited for the rest of the group, we went downstairs to have a drink and something to eat. The espresso martini, the fries, and the meatballs were incredible! The next day, however, the experience started to change. When we went down for breakfast, we had to cancel it because it took more than 30 minutes to arrive and we had to leave for some commitments. That morning the service felt very slow and of poor quality. On the last night, when we returned to the hotel at 11:00 p.m., after having left the room at 10:00 a.m., we found everything exactly as we had left it—our room had never been cleaned. The towels were still on the floor, the sink had hair in it the entire time, and the area around the sink had not been wiped. This is not what you expect from a 5-star hotel—or perhaps it should have fewer stars? Additionally, the amenities were never restocked during our stay. The shampoo and hand cream, for example, were never replaced.
