Fodor's Expert Review Hilton Americas

Finally, Houston has a great convention-center hotel right in the heart of downtown's sporting venues. Massive, ornate, and luxurious, this is the largest hotel in Houston, with 1,203 rooms. Almost a city within a city, the Hilton Americas has three restaurants and lounges, a gigantic fitness center, and a rooftop bar/grill that's not cheesy at all. The views from its 24th-floor location are pretty amazing, especially at night when the downtown skyline comes alive.
