During the afternoon tea service at The St. Regis Houston, a harpist plays cascading melodies while a butler circulates among deep leather armchairs to distribute three-tier stands of traditional tea sandwiches and pastries. A hallmark of St. Regis hotels, this ritual begins on Fridays and continues through the weekend, infusing the lobby lounge with the aroma of artisanal tea. Thoughtful service also characterizes The Remington Restaurant, a traditional American dining room with tall, arched doorways and multi-paneled windows overlooking verdant landscaping. At the spa, find relaxation in the form of holistic treatments, including a wild lavender body wrap.
