Moonrise Hotel

Houston, the Eagle has landed! This place was a successful moon landing if I ever made one. The whole place is themed after the Apollo missions, but also has other NASA memorabilia on display. From the moment you walk in, and see the colorful lights flickering away on the stairs, to the awe-inspiring relaxation to be had on the rooftop terrace, you can relax with ease. My only complaint was that there was no pool, but then again, I don’t think there’s water on the moon. I didn’t get a chance to try the restaurant, but if it’s as good as the rest of the hotel, then you won’t be disappointed.

Eclectic but fun place. Great staff. Animal friendly. Cool area of the city. Clean, a little dated but not tired.Decent breakfast. Would stay again.

Location was perfect for the Delmar Hall concert we were attending. At first, the atmosphere was quaint and quirky. The room at first glance was spacious and welcoming. Once we unpacked and started using the room, we noticed how dirty it was... almost every surface had a layer of dust. The mirror was filthy and the bathroom was really terrible. The floor was sticky and someone's contact lenses were still stuck to the tile. We had to clean the coffee maker before even attempting to use it. Someone had spilled something (we hope that's what it was) down the side of the night stand and we cleaned it ourselves. We were there 2 nights and had to ask for a bar of soap, which they were out of! What? We both joked that the cleaning staff should tip us for how much we had to do. An old hotel is one thing... a dirty hotel is another. In addition, the furniture was very uncomfortable. Because we booked through Sam's Club Travel, we were told any issues would have to be address with them. If location is your main concern, bring some wet wipes and have a great time! If cleanliness and comfort are your thing... go down the road to the next hotel.

We stay at the Moonrise a few times a year and it was again a very enjoyable experience. An extra shout out to Elisia at the Eclipse restaurant. She went above and beyond to make sure we made it to our concert on time and was a joy to get to know

Absolutely worst hotel experience in my life. There is a nightclub on the roof that played deafening electronic dance music until late in the morning. When I complained about it I was told the club is separate from the hotel so there was nothing they could do about it. The manager was alerted but was away for the weekend. He has still not responded. Who places a thumping nightclub above rooms and expects their guests to sleep? Staff were all very nice but were unable to help. Manager remains MIA. I would avoid this place.
