Convenient Location in the Heart of Houston
Review From: NexTag Editorial Review, Jun 9, 2008
Situated directly across the street from the Reliant Astrodome and two blocks from both the Six Flags AstroWorld theme park and WaterWorld, the Park Plaza Hotel Reliant Center provides easy access to Houston's biggest attractions. The hotel, a longstanding Texas landmark in itself, underwent a $32 million renovation to bring it into the new millennium. It now boasts an impressive 55,000 square feet of meeting space as well as Houston's largest ballroom. The 18,750-square foot ballroom features 20-foot ceilings and dual stages - perfect for hosting any event. The guest rooms are comfortable but sparsely decorated. Wood cabinets and faux plants adorn the stark white walls. Fresh flowers, instead of silk, would have been a nice touch. The rooms could also be a little noisy due to the hotel's location right off the highway. Despite the rooms' shortcomings, there are many perks to this hotel. The elegant waterfall whirlpool is a perfect mix of beauty and function. Soak in the koi pond-like Jacuzzi while a tranquil waterfall trickles down the layered rocks into your enclosure. Another advantage is the onsite pizza delivery. With just a call to room service, the Chef's Specialty Pizza can be delivered fresh to your door.
