Situated within walking distance of several of Houston's world-class performing arts venues – the Hobby Center, the Alley Theatre, and the Jones Hall for the Performing Arts (home of the Houston Symphony) – the 12-story, 93-guestroom Lancaster Hotel offers old-world soul in the heart of Texas. A metro station is also nearby.
The Lancaster Hotel lobby recalls a British country house, with a profusion of flowers and elegant, antique-style furnishings. Drawing both hotel guests and theater-bound locals, the Bistro Lancaster serves Gulf Coast-influenced American bistro fare in a lovely setting on the hotel's ground floor. A complimentary hot buffet breakfast is available between 7 AM and 10 AM daily, and in the evening Monday through Thursday, the hotel also hosts a wine hour in the lobby.
Business amenities include complimentary wired (high-speed) Internet access and a 24-hour business center with a computer station. A ballroom and 3 meeting/conference rooms make up the event facilities. There is also a TV in the lobby for kicking back. An area shuttle (surcharge) takes guests to destinations within 3 miles of the hotel, and guests can also arrange pick-up service from the train station with the hotel. Multilingual staff can assist with tours and tickets. The property is smoke free.
