We loved our stay at the Whitehall. Everyone was very warm and welcoming especially Shirley at check-in and Josh and John at check-out. The room was very comfortable. We had dinner and breakfast at the onsite restaurant and enjoyed both meals. We will definitely stay there again on our next visit to Houston.
