Crystal Inn Downtown Guest Reviews
Write a review
Crystal Inn Downtown is a no-frills, budget-friendly spot located just north of downtown Houston. With clean, air-conditioned rooms, free WiFi, and easy access to major highways, it’s a practical base for concert-goers heading to events across the city. Whether you're in town for a big show or a local gig, this motel-style stay gets you close to the action without stretching your wallet.
Only about 7 miles from top venues like Minute Maid Park, Wortham Center, and Alley Theater, Crystal Inn Downtown makes it easy to get to your show and back. The 24-hour front desk means late-night arrivals aren’t a problem, and the quiet, residential location is a welcome retreat after a high-energy night. Rooms come with flat-screen TVs, air conditioning, and some even feature a balcony to wind down post-concert.
While the hotel itself doesn’t have a restaurant, you're within driving distance of plenty of late-night eats in downtown Houston. Plus, each room includes a fridge – perfect for keeping snacks and drinks on hand. Room service is available if you’re just too tired to go out after the encore.
The nightlife of downtown Houston is just a short drive away, including bars, lounges, and live music spots. If you're up for it, the area around Midtown offers a vibrant post-show scene, or you can head back to the hotel for a quiet night in.
This is a basic stay, so don’t expect luxury extras. Some guests mention the decor is dated, and you’ll need to drive or grab a rideshare to reach most nightlife or dining spots. It’s more about convenience than flash – but it does the job well.
If you’re looking for an affordable, no-fuss stay close to Houston’s music venues, Crystal Inn Downtown is a smart and convenient pick for concert-goers.

Nicely remodeled
Liked: Room was nice and clean. We were able to check in early which was nice. Shower was super nice; water pressure great! There was porn when we turned on the TV which I found hilarious (also a plus)
Disliked: Could have had more pillows and a comforter on the bed instead of thin sheet. But i also understand it is TX so its always hot and moist there.
