Concept Suite Descriptions - Hotel ZaZa, Houston Museum District

Cool Creativity and High Style Combine for One-of-a-Kind Experience

HOUSTON, Texas (May 5, 2008) – Famous for its imaginative flair, Hotel ZaZa’s innovation can be found in its signature hotel Concept Suites: ten lavish, fantastically-themed accommodations offering guests an adventure all their own. Up to 1,996 square feet of decadent style and comfort, these suites channel ZaZa’s penchant for the extraordinary.

Geisha House Suite - 667 sq-ft
Painted in deep red hues with rich black accents and furnished with a plush pagoda poster bed and a custom chandelier adorned with photographs of gorgeous geishas, this is a Japanese-inspired suite with a feminine flair. Also includes a serene bathroom retreat, complete with teak wood in the shower and soothing pebble flooring.

West Indies Suite - 667 sq-ft
In need of your own island retreat? Walk through these doors and into tropical peacefulness. A beautifully smooth tangle of teak branches heads our plush bed, covered with natural fibers in neutral colors. A large stone dining table and handmade accents from Indonesia and Asia enhance this West Indies oasis. Just say ahh…

Houston, We Have a Problem Suite - 1,035 sq-ft
The quickest trip to the moon yet. Step through the portal and into the stratosphere-chic of icy blues and charcoal grays. This space is especially well-equipped to handle meetings, with a dark walnut table playing command central for up to eight, a crescent moon-inspired leather couch, and a bubble chair and telescope for late-night spying or star-gazing.

Moulin Rouge Suite - 864 sq-ft
A sexy, bohemian apartment, ZaZa-style. Sink into leopard-print carpeting, plush sofas and a four-poster bed draped in sumptuous fabrics. Meanwhile, purple velvet cascades down one wall, and risqué, Parisian-inspired artwork adorns the others. This is a room to encourage grand passion and teasing memories.

Casa Blanca Suite - 667 sq-ft
Rust-red stained walls with intricate hand stenciling welcome you to this Moroccan hideaway, where Rick and Ilsa would feel quite at home on the low-slung couch covered in pillows. Through a massive carved door you’ll escape into an impressively luxurious bedroom and a Moroccan-tiled bathroom. One night’s stay is enough to make you forget the last plane out.

That’s Entertainment Suite - 690 sq-ft
Whether you want to invite friends to watch the big game or enjoy an intimate Oscar viewing, this is the place for the show. We’ve devoted an entire wall to play the role of big screen, while the rest of the room is done up in rich deep colors with enough plush, comfy seating for the whole crew. Photos of famous Houstonians who’ve made it big line up for the red carpet welcome.

SoHo Loft Suite - 1,071 sq-ft
Think Will and Grace with a bit of Jack thrown in for color. This multi-level, open floor plan features stained concrete floors, high ceilings with a large crystal chandelier, a brick wall, Persian rugs and big leather chairs to flop into. In the bedroom waits a faux-mink headboard framing a fabulously made bed, along with an Eames chair and ottoman for lounging. SoHo, so chic.

An Affair to Remember Suite - 448 sq-ft
This is one to completely sweep you (or your special guest) off your feet with passionately unreserved romance. A large antique bed, covered with the most sensual of spreads, contrasts beautifully with the red leather banquette. Leopard carpet, gold ceiling, mirrored furniture and walls, and a window overlooking the soaking tub in the bathroom set the stage for seduction. The rest is up to you.

Warwick Apartment Suite - 1,996 sq-ft
(with the C’est La Vie Suite, 2,829 sq-ft)
With almost two thousand square feet, we’ve created an eclectically artistic studio – that is, if the artist has a very doting patron. Using original molding, paneling and wood floors from the hotel’s Warwick days, we’ve added shelves piled with books, huge armoires, big Chesterfield sofas covered in beckoning fabrics, vintage wingback leather chairs, a 12-foot table for dinner parties and, tucked in a corner, an easel. Our bit of French romanticism.

C’est La Vie Suite - 833 sq-ft
This intimate lair is heavily influenced by the movie Unfaithful. Think French philosopher meets New York apartment. Filled with well-loved books, found objects and sumptuous furniture, this is just right as a lover’s hideaway or an extension to our Warwick Apartment suite.
