Hotel ICON is a new concept in personal luxury hotels designed to enliven and enrich the senses. A historic renovation of the Union National Bank Building, the ICON is ideally located at the nexus of Houston's thriving arts, entertainment districts and within walking distance of Houston's George R. Brown Convention Center. A haven of sensory delights, each of Hotel ICON's 135 spectacular guestrooms and nine penthouse suites are reminiscent of a chic mansion. With an average footprint of 400 square feet, a vivid color palette and a finish level of uncompromising quality, each guestroom balances substance, style and comfort for the discerning traveler. Ideal for relaxing and socializing, the lobby's focal point is VOICE, a signature restaurant and lounge, which opened to the public on April 5, 2008. A several million dollar transformation has created a delicious backdrop for acclaimed chef Michael Kramer's menu of regionally-inspired Modern American dishes. Central to the dining room is a 360-degree walnut bar that boasts generous seating to enjoy an array of specialty cocktails as well as offerings from the extensive bar menu. Add the Whiskey Lobby Loft with its special blend of black lacquered and mirrored walls and mohair banquettes, a full service day spa, a resort-worthy fitness facility, and the Hotel ICON is the setting for a fabulous and luxurious Houston stay.
