9 Hotels in the U.S. That Celebrate Women - AFAR

"Opened in fall 2019 as part of a boutique Curio Collection, this Houston hotel is named for Charlotte Baldwin Allen and traces her role financing the city’s beginnings; its design by Rottet Studio and Rohe Creative includes a striking 111-foot living plant wall shaped like an “X” that nods to Baldwin’s inability to sign her name and invites guests to make their mark. Original portraits by local photojournalist Elizabeth Conley—depicting fierce Houston women with flashy cars—decorate the 354 guest rooms, and meeting rooms are named for notable Texas women such as Barbara Jordan and Miriam Ferguson, with background information provided." - Devorah Lev-Tov
