TownPlace Suites by Marriott Humble Intercontinental Airport is an amazing brand-new hotel (2025)…read morewith loads of amenities, and, as the name suggests, close to IAH George Bush Intercontinental Airport.
As I drove up from Townsen Blvd., I was impressed with the beautiful landscaping (curb appeal) and the very exterior of the building.
To the right (east) is the reception / lobby area, then, after check-in, parking wraps around the other sides of the building. I noticed there is also a charming patio area beside the door with places to sit around a fire pit and hang with your friends or family.
Check-in was very pleasant and easy, with friendly staff. They told me how to access the free WiFi, hours of the free breakfast buffet, and other amenities.
I was blown away by my room which was like a mini apartment, well decorated (I loved the unusual wall lighting) and welcoming. My bed was very comfy bed with quality linens and lots of great pillows.
There was a full bathroom, closet (equipped with iron and ironing board), a sofa, large screened TV which was on and showing the welcome screen that welcomed me by name, an equipped kitchenette with a good-sized refrigerator, two burner stovetop, microwave, sink (with kitchen towels, dishwashing detergent, hot pads), and cupboards filled with dishes, glasses, mugs, flatware, etc. But what really surprised me was the half-sized dishwasher! Everything was pristine.
The bathroom had bar soap as well as dispensers for body soap, shampoo and conditioner. The quality towels were a good size and thirsty. A standard ice bucket and personal coffee maker with supplies was also provided.
The pool is on the west side and is well maintained. As everything in common areas, it is handicapped friendly, so there is a lift to help people in and out of the pool. The pool area had towels provided and a place to stash them when you're finished. There are loungers and umbrella tables.
The hotel has meeting rooms for groups, an exercise room, business center, a small store for those last minute snacks or needs.
This hotel welcomes pets (I'm sure there is an additional deposit), and has a pet relief area.
The breakfast is really good. There is hot food and the usual cereals, waffles, fruit, coffee (decaf and regular), hot tea, and juice. I liked the turkey sausage as well as the ham, egg and cheese croissants.
All the hotel is 100% smoke free.
The hotel's location is excellent because there are all kinds of stores and restaurants within a very short walking distance. You can walk to convenience stores, specialty stores like Academy, Burlington, Kroger, At Home, Walmart, Sam's Club, Cavender's Boot City, or, if you walk another block or two is Deerbrook Mall. Around the corner is Black Bear Diner, Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen, Olive Garden, and any number of other eateries and bistros, from Chinese, Mexican, Vietnamese, Indian, pizza, Cajun, Southern Soul food, etc.
This was truly one of the nicest hotel stays I've had, better than some 5-star resorts. I highly recommend it.
