The Lancaster, charming boutique hotel in downtown Houston
Read
our new Feature Accommodation - The
Lancaster Hotel, an historic hotel with a European elegance situated
in downtown Houston.
Special touches on arrival start with a turndown
service with chocolate, bath robes, fresh cut flowers, and soft music.
Just right after a day of travel. This boutique hotel is right in the
center of Houston in the theatre district, and the building has been a
hotel since 1926. During our visit, we met with W. K. Hicks, who carved
out an exceptional career with the Houston Oilers prior to becoming head
doorman with the hotel. One evening we walked downtown towards Main
Street where many were dining out for the evening after watching a
theatre performance or looking to get into the Venue, a dance place.
The
Lancaster Hotel is in an optimal location in the Theatre District,
next door to the Houston Symphony and near the Houston Convention Center.
