Have you ever secretly wanted to hide out in the mall until closing time and spend the night exploring? If so, your dream can become reality - sort of. The Westin Oaks Houston at the Galleria is a hotel attached to the iconic Houston Galleria, so you can spend the whole day shopping, then retreat to your room for a luxurious evening without ever leaving the mall.
The world-renowned Houston Galleria is the largest mall in Texas (and the seventh largest in the U.S.), with over 2 million square feet of retail space. With 400 stores ranging from upscale icons like Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom to local boutiques, plus a food court and ice skating rink, the Galleria is truly a shopper's paradise.
While the Galleria makes an excellent day trip, Houston traffic is notoriously nightmarish. If you have a couple of hundred bucks to spare, we know of the perfect solution: a night at The Westin Oaks Houston at the Galleria.
The Westin Oaks is a AAA Four Diamond hotel directly attached to the mall, so you can enjoy a blissful shopping excursion without worrying about driving home during rush hour.
Accommodations range from standard guest rooms to the most opulent suites you've ever seen, all featuring an array of luxurious amenities.
Cozy up in a patented Westin Heavenly Bed for a refreshing night's sleep after a full day of shopping, then wake up to sweeping views of the Houston skyline (depending on which room you book, of course). There are also several accessible rooms and suites available.
The Galleria itself offers many incredible restaurants, and the hotel has an on-site eatery of its own. White Oak Kitchen + Drinks will be your new go-to for fresh, locally-sourced American cuisine, with plenty of gluten-free and vegetarian options on the menu.
Dine on juicy burgers, salads, three-cheese mac, steak and seafood, and tons more scrumptious selections. The restaurant is also open for breakfast, serving fresh fruit, pancakes, eggs, and more.
Enjoy a sophisticated start to your evening at the Street Level Lobby Bar, where you'll find handcrafted cocktails, fine wines, and light bites. It's the perfect way to unwind from traipsing through the mall for hours!
Other hotel amenities include an outdoor pool, fitness studio, and 90,000 square feet of event space. It truly has everything you need for a memorable getaway.
Visit the hotel's website or Facebook page for more information, including current nightly rates.
