Testimonials
"From the very beginning of the RFP search, Visit Houston immediately became the front runner for our Conference. Continuing through the site inspection process to the final negotiations, Visit Houston was creative, supportive, and provided one of the best conference planning experiences. The campus of the Hilton, Marriott, and George R. Brown Convention Center, coupled with the enthusiasm and professionalism of Visit Houston, is second to none."
- Peter"Houston is such a wonderful city with lots of hotel options to fit every program’s needs. Fabulous 5 Star to Economical 3 Star. Houston has also become a Foodie Mecca and being such a compact city, you can easily find what you want within a short walk. The nightlife scene has also exploded and meets every desire from the just 21 attendee to the seasonally mature. You cannot go wrong when you bring a program to Houston."
- Denise"Love Houston! I have had the pleasure of working with the Houston CVB on two 2020 programs. Everyone at the hotel was hospitable, friendly, they had a lot of local fares in the lobby as we walked and were welcomed Texas style. I would recommend Houston as a destination to not only my clients but my friends and family!"
- Amy"Visit Houston embodies the true meaning of a compassionate, understanding and trusted partner. You guys totally get it! You really take the time to listen to each client’s specific needs and take a collaborative approach with us to close business."
- Jennifer"From the time I began my RFP process to the end of the site visit, Visit Houston reps were always there to answer my questions. After just 2 days of site touring in Houston, I have a wealth of information for my clients and also understand how to sell Houston as a destination. My client especially appreciated the support of the CVB and she has learned to value the CVB’s as much as I do. I can’t thank you enough and I know my success is a reflection of all you have done for me."
- Julie"I want to shout out how GREAT it is to work with Visit Houston and the Houston Hotels. They were eager to work with us to provide us with options to make sure our needs were met. I would highly recommend you getting a bid from Houston whether you are looking for a venue for a city-wide using the Convention Center or a one hotel meeting site. I was AMAZED just how much Houston has to offer. With the numerous flights into the city, the layout of the Convention Center and Hotels, and the walkable, clean, safe downtown area of the city…. you can’t go wrong."
