Hotel Derek

You would think that a hotel right on Westheimer and 610 in the heart of the Galleria area would be fantastic, but this hotel is out dated and uncomfortable. The bed was hard as a rock with flat, uncomfortable pillows. The bathroom was small with NO SOAP in sight. The mini fridge was basically at room temperature, so that we didn't feel comfortable eating food left in it. The room had a 70s vibe... Right down to the strange orange and yellow lantern hanging from the ceiling. Overall, for $200/ night and "4 Stars," this should have been a much nicer stay. The only positive thing I can say is that the 2 staff members we met (Valet & Check In) were both very nice. We will NOT be back and we recommend you don't visit either.

We arrived late in the evening. No valet and one person working inside. Front desk agent was nice and got us to our room but that’s when things went south quick. The room was disgusting. One of the worst bathrooms I’ve ever seen. Stains everywhere. Wall paper coming off the walls. No towels. Damage to the room all over. They are clearly not taking care of this hotel as other reviewers have stated. The parking lot was empty. The hotel felt empty and yet they gave us a trashed room. Can’t imagine what the other rooms are like. We looked up articles online and it said it was supposed to change ownership in June 2024 but that appears to not have happened. Don’t stay here unless you really have to. Many other options for similar price in the galleria area.

Incredibly underwhelming. For the price we paid, we could have spend 3 nights at a cheaper hotel and still had a better stay. Upon check we were told there was no gym, pool, or bar/restaurant- yet the website says everything is open? Then the room was outdated and mediocre at best. Not cleaned to the standard I would expect. No soap in the bathroom, a single hand towel and bath towel only. The room amenities were supposed to be coffee and 2 bottles of water, we had no water and no cups for coffee. The bed was the most uncomfortable bed we’ve ever slept on. The pillows were like lying on a sheet of wood. And only a sheet on the bed, no comforter. And the AC was so loud that it woke us up every time it came on. I turned the AC up so it wouldn’t come on as often and it still came on every 5 minutes.
