My stay at Hotel Icon was a mix of positive experiences and a few letdowns. The decor is striking, showcasing a 1940s aesthetic that I loved. I appreciated the complimentary snacks and juice in the evenings, which were refreshing against Houston's humidity. However, I was disappointed by the lack of a pool and the outdated television in my room.

I had an overall nice stay at Hotel Icon, but it wasn't without its hiccups. The setup and design details of the hotel were impressive, and the staff were quite friendly and accommodating. However, I encountered a few issues with room service and street noise that slightly marred my experience. The bathroom was definitely the highlight, being both spacious and luxurious.

My room was spacious and nicely decorated, complete with a huge whirlpool tub that I loved. However, I noticed some wear and tear with the outdated features like an old TV. Overall, the room felt comfortable but could use some updates.

The hotel's location was excellent, with easy walking access to various bars and restaurants around downtown. Unfortunately, my room faced a lively nightclub, which meant noise was an issue well into the night.

Hotel Icon is a beautiful hotel with a spacious and luxurious bathroom, as well as a convenient location near downtown Houston. However, I was disappointed by the high parking fees and some service inconsistencies. My room was comfortable, though the overall hotel decor felt dated compared to the photos.

Rooms

7.0

I loved the bathroom in my King Room; it was spacious and had amazing water pressure. The bed was also incredibly comfortable. However, the room size felt smaller than I had hoped, and the view was not the best since I was only on the third floor.

Service

Most staff members were polite and helpful, but I had a less than pleasant experience during check-in with a lady who treated me rudely. On the bright side, the staff made an effort to make up for an early morning disturbance by offering free breakfast.

My stay at Hotel Icon was nice. the blend of vintage charm and modern amenities was truly a treat. The lobby's classical decor welcomed me warmly, while the staff's friendliness made me feel right at home. However, the towels in my room were a bit too rough for my liking, and I experienced a delay with room service during a busy weekend. Overall, I'd rate my experience quite high, but there are a few areas for improvement.

I had a lovely stay at Hotel Icon, with its gorgeous architecture and spacious suite on the 12th floor. While the staff, particularly Rita at the front desk, were friendly and helpful, I did experience some noise issues from the nearby nightclub and a bit of disconnect with the night staff regarding room service. Overall, the stay was enjoyable, especially with the fantastic breakfast buffet and proximity to theater performances.
