The NFL’s Texans play at NRG Stadium, south of downtown Houston. The venue is also the site of concerts, the annual Texas Bowl, and the world’s largest rodeo. In this part of town, you’ll find many brand name hotels that serve the nearby Houston Medical Center. They also offer easy access to the city’s famed Museum District and the area around Rice University. If you want to walk to the stadium, you’ll find some budget brands very nearby, while more upscale city hotels will be at least a mile or two away. Here are the best hotels near NRG Stadium.

Less than a mile from the stadium, this 182-suite Residence Inn with an indoor pool and a free breakfast “had everything we needed and was very family-friendly,” writes a Google reviewer. “The included breakfast had many hot and cold breakfast options—I was impressed.” The suites all offer full kitchens too. “The location is a plus,” says a Tripadvisor user, “close to NRG Stadium and the Houston Medical Center, and there are plenty of restaurants within walking distance.
