Better. IAH layover hotel
I'm looking for alternatives to our current hotel so when I complain about it I can offer them up instead. We currently stay at the Doubbletree, Greenway Plaza. It's a good hotel and the area is fine but it's about a 45 minute drive. Too far, IMO. Our lobby show time is 120 minutes before takeoff. That's pushing the limits of my patience. I don't enjoy crew van rides and I consider them the most dangerous part of my job. Fortunately it not early in the morning.
Any suggestions?

If you don't like the 45 minute drive your not gonna be able to stay downtown. The woodlands is probably a 25 minute drive from IAH and is a really nice area with plenty of stuff to do. I'm like Satpak77 though if you don't like the drive there are several hotels near the airport, but there isn't anything to do around them.
