Great

Great service upon arrival and every day, nice rooms, nice pool and gym (with heavy weights!). Was here for business for 3 days.

Friendly, Laidback and Inviting

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 days ago

I couldn’t have asked for a better stay in downtown Houston. Whitehall truly felt like a home away from home. The staff made all the difference—Ana Maria and Josh at the front desk went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and safe, while James at Edgar’s Hermano delivered the kind of southern hospitality that made each meal feel special. From the laid back outdoor pool, to the sun-filled room in the mornings; the building itself carries so much history and charm; it’s character only added to the experience. Warm, friendly, and comfortable—Whitehall is a place I’d happily return to.

Do not recommend.

Old facility. Very poor sound insulation, very very noisy at night due to the outside traffic. Saw one cockroach on the floor!!!

Fight night

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 days ago

We stayed two nights at the Whitehall and the hospitality was excellent. John and Shirley both took care of us at the front desk and answered all of our questions and always greeted us in the lobby when we came through. They made our stay special and we really appreciate that kind of attention to detail.
