If you love downtown Houston, stay here!!
The property was very close to Montrose which we frequent, and the highway to get anywhere and everywhere. The stay was well furnished for our needs, and very comfortable. The only thing is the bedrooms are small and the sinks offer little counter space so you might struggle if you're plus-sized or sharing with others for more than a weekend. The best part to me was the private, gated parking and porch. Great host! Very attentive and thorough. Would recommend again and again. Will be back next visit to the H.

Beautiful restored home. Great bottom unit of old home in an old neighborhood. Close to lots of places. Beds were clean and comfortable. Neighborhood traffic was noisy at times but guests/tenants in upstairs unit were very quiet. Parking and home amenities were great.

Why they chose this property

The Belle Vie is an upper-level two-bedroom flat with a contemporary chic ambiance. The building is a renovated 1930's historic home with original wood trim & floors, divided into two completely separate duplex apartments, one up and one down (this is the DOWNSTAIRS unit). Duplexes are very common for this part of the city. They are like separate condos. The house has a securely gated driveway entrance to the parking area in the backyard with key code access and is on a tree-lined street. The off-street private parking space fits four automobiles (two per duplex apartment).

This home is centrally located very close to Texas Medical Center, MD Anderson, and Downtown in the historic residential neighborhood of Riverside Terrace bordering the Museum District area. It is known for being surrounded by higher learning and prestigious universities, art centers, museums, and cultural locations. There is a beautiful golf course at Hermann park less than a mile away for all golf enthusiasts. Hermann Park is a 445-acre urban park, which also includes the Houston Zoo, the Centennial Gardens, the Japanese Gardens, the Marvin Taylor biking and running trail, reflection pool, picnic areas, McGovern Lake, Boat Lagoon, and Miller Outdoor Theater. All major stadiums are also within a 3-mile radius (NRG Stadium, BBVA Compass Bank Stadium, Minute Maid Park, Toyota Center).

What makes this property unique

The morning is filled with a quiet breeze, chirping birds, and an invitation for leisure. You can ride a bike to the best parks, theaters, museums, and cafes. The golf course is less than a mile away! The main highway access is two blocks from the house. It's just the perfect place for a business traveler or someone wanting a weekend or more away in the city of Houston. We are directly central to all great things in Houston!
