Frommer's Highly Recommended

Located a block off Westheimer and 3 blocks from Montrose Boulevard, this B&B is on a quiet street right in the middle of the busy restaurant and club district of the Montrose area. The house dates from the early 1900s and was built by one of Houston's mayors. Most rooms are large (well above the usual size for B&Bs). The four rooms in the main house and two in the carriage house are attractive and well furnished with period pieces, wood floors, and area rugs, yet eschew the cutesiness that so many B&Bs feel obliged to deliver. Almost all have private balconies. There are also four town-house units around the corner (two per house), which have separate entrances and greater privacy. These are comfortable but modern. One town house has a full kitchen for the use of guests if they rent both rooms.
