Editorial Review for Hotel Zaza – by Joshua Hinsdale

In Short
The Warwick was one of Houston's most glamorous hotels, ever since its opening in 1926. The neoclassical Museum District landmark has reopened as the ZaZa and ups the ante on luxury accommodations in Houston. The 12-story hotel has 315 rooms, suites and bungalows offering plasma TVs, mini-bars, Italian linens, candlelight turndown service and rainforest showers. The hotel also offers a museum-like lobby, stylish outdoor swimming pool with cabanas, the Monarch gourmet restaurant and the ZaSpa Eastern holistic day spa.

User Reviews for Hotel Zaza

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

A few of my girlfriends and I stayed at hotel zaza over the weekend for my bachelorette weekend. It was perfect. The rooms were beautiful and perfect for us. We really enjoyed sitting on the balcony and enjoying the sites and weather , the beds are very comfortable, and the bathrooms were very nice. The best part was the pool. We picked Hotel Zaza because we heard it had a great pool. It's true. The pool is perfect and so was the pool side service. They were always asking us what we needed. The entire weekend was like that. The service was great. We plan on going back ver soon just for a weekend get away (even though we live down the road.)

1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

As a meeting planner and social events planner for clients including individual celebrities, Fortune 500 companies and major music festivals, I would not recommend Hotel ZaZa- Houston to any of my clients and friends. This is a new hotel with lots of potential...unfortunately they are still in the early management phases and haven't worked out all of the kinks yet. The service staff is horrendous and needs a SERIOUS course in hospitality and the General Management staff needs some definite leadership training. Several colleagues have now contacted me with horror stories ranging from a CEO of a major company being mistreated by the valet service, to a bridal party being completely degraded by the service staff (i.e. valet, registration, concierge, AGM). If I were an individual, planning an event --- I would certainly NOT use the hotel's services without having an experienced planner work for me as the middle-man. With boutique type hotels such as the ZaZa ---- there is a very fine line between eccentric and raunchy ---- unfortunately the current phase for this hotel seems to be turning to the raunchier of the social crowd. Give it a year and hopefully it will have cleaned up its image ---- or will be gone!

Pros: Decor, beverage selection in the bar, eccentricities

Cons: SERVICE, Size of non-suite rooms, SERVICE,
