Aris Market Square

Closer to downtown Houston with a ~5 min walk to most corporate offices. We’ve enjoyed our stay and hope the rent doesn’t shoot up with the incoming soccer world cup. Only major consideration while choosing Aris Market square should be its proximity to the Main St., which is both a boon and a bane. Lol! Boon cuz it keeps stone-throw away from my office but gets loud during the weekend - Fri/Sat/Sun. Especially the apartments that face the Main St. So if you are more susceptible to sound, go for the ones not facing towards the Main. We are very susceptible to the sound yet chose to be on the Main St. in a 2Bed because of nice floor design nad breathtaking views of downtown through floor-to-ceiling glass windows (which I wish were cleaned more often though lol). Other than that, the staff is phenomenal, Rotley, Imani, and other folks at the reception are super nice and warm. There have been multiple instances where Rotley’s happy and energetic face has lifted up my not-so-well going day.

I recently visited Aris Market Square in downtown Houston as I’m considering relocating, and I have to say this experience was incredible. Coming from south of downtown, I was a little hesitant about walking into a city high-rise. I’ve heard great things about Aris, but downtown can feel intimidating at times. That all changed the moment I walked in. The moment you enter, you are greeted by a warm aroma that instantly sets the tone. The intentional and artistic design of the space is stunning…the marble walls, carefully chosen color schemes, elegant flooring, and alluring furniture make you feel the thought and care behind every detail. The ambient music paired with the electric fireplace created an environment that immediately put me at ease. At the welcome desk, I met Imani and Chelsea. Imani introduced herself warmly and asked what brought me in. When I realized her name means faith, it immediately resonated with me, and the interaction set the entire tone for my visit. Imani has a way of making you feel welcomed, safe, and aligned with the moment. Her warmth, her presence, and her ability to naturally guide a conversation made me feel like I belonged in the space. She truly elevated the experience. As we toured the building and available units, the views of downtown Houston were breathtaking. The luxurious amenities (the pool, the gym, the downstairs food court and the community/lounge spaces) all contribute to the sense that this is more than a home; it’s a lifestyle. I left feeling inspired, aligned, and at peace with the possibility of calling this space home. I cannot say enough about Imani and the way she made the visit so personal and memorable. This is truly one-of-one high-rise living in Houston. If you are considering relocating downtown or anywhere in Houston, I highly recommend visiting Aris Market Square and asking for Imani. Five stars across the board.

An excellent well managed property in a great location downtown with easy highway access and walkability to the tunnels, Buffalo Bayou Trails, and the metro. Aris is a clean, safe, and secure property with luxurious well maintained amenities and apartment units. The team at Aris really make this property what it is. The team and their dedication to residents make Aris stand out amongst the other properties downtown. From the helpful and dependable valet, the leasing staff (Mahi and Marlene are amazingly helpful and keep residents informed on property activities, events, and notices), maintenance crew (responsive and effective), and the excellent concierge staff, they all excel and make the apartment experience amazing and give me confidence in having made the correct choice for an apartment Richard alone adds a quality of service to the property that is unmatched. Richard's dedication, work ethic, and personal integrity all translate to an honest care and concern for all residents and which may be something intangible, but it is very much appreciated. Acts like running a scrutinois package delivery audit each night, checking in with residents that have time sensitive deliveries, ensuring that the property is secure and standards and accountability are maintained, all while maintaining a welcoming atmosphere at all hours shouldn't go unstated. Having a concierge on 24/7 that all make efforts like this to learn and know the residents is really something to appreciate. From Richard, Rotlhe, Messanger, Felix, and V, they make every concern a non-concern and are all so helpful and friendly at any hour.

I’ve only been a resident for a little over 6 weeks but so far… I absolutely love it here. My move in was smooth. I had an issue with getting my living room sofa in my apartment and needed Aris maintenance to take the entire door off the hinges in order for it to fit. They did it with no question…and it was so fast. The customer service and management had been top tier. I have lived high rise for over 5 years now and this is definitely in my top. And the location is fantastic. We can simply walk to everything.

Amazing place to live! The concierge staff are amazing. It’s very central to downtown and the underground with lots of things happening every day at the nearby parks and The Post. The facility is kept very tidy. Lots of pets in this building and I’ve never seen any pee or poop anywhere in the building. 10/10 would live here

CONS: * The noise here is completely unbearable. You effectively won't be able to sleep from Thursday through Sunday. Fabians Latin flavors especially is extremely loud on the weekends, as well as SoHo Garden. You won't notice this during a day tour but by the time you sign and spend your first night in your apartment and figure out what you've gotten yourself locked into its too late. Ear plugs do nothing. White noise machines do nothing. *I repeat, the clubs go until 2 AM on Sunday. * Alot of homeless, if you haven't been downtown before you might not realize how bad the homeless problem has gotten, it's obviously not the apartment complexes fault, the security they have keeps them out of the building for the most part, but I've seen people getting spit on walking out of their apartment. PRO: * The concierge and valet are pretty great. Some cool dudes. Overall a great building, that's run well enough ruined by its location. If you're an extremely deep sleeper, it might work out. If your apartment faces travis street, it might work out, but it's honestly not worth the risk IMO, once you sign the lease you're stuck and alot of the people who can pay these rents are professionals that can't afford to have their sleep ruined.

I had the pleasure of touring with Trevon. He was a delight to work with and easy to talk to. The perfect blend of professional and personal. While on the tour we came across multiple residents that had been there for multiple years and had great things to say about their home and community. The Aris is a stunning high rise and they truly have everything to offer their residents. Highly recommend checking out the Aris and touring with Trevon if you get the opportunity.

I’ve been living at Aris for over three years, and it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve made. As someone who grew up in Houston, downtown living wasn’t something I ever pictured for myself—but now I can’t imagine being anywhere else. The building is beautiful, the location is unbeatable, and the convenience of being close to work, Houston’s nightlife, and Astros games makes everyday living easier and more fun. The entire staff is friendly and helpful, and they’ve really created a sense of community here. A big part of that experience has been Marlene & Richard, our concierge. They have been a constant presence throughout my time here, always welcoming and thoughtful. Richard also somehow knows all my guests by name, keeps me on track with package reminders, and greets me with a smile every single day. It’s the kind of care that makes a building feel like home. Grateful to have him and Marlene here.

My daughter and granddaughter moved in this building. This place in beautiful. It has valet parking, concierge service, and more. It's surrounded by plenty of bars, grocery stores, convenient stores and more. Please check this place out. More pictures to come once I take the official tour.

I have been living at Aris just shy of a year, and I have no complaints. Im one of those people that moves every year because I hate noise, unprofessional staff, bad parking, broken elevators ect. I know all of those things are extremely common in apartments no matter the price point... I have none of these issues here. Maintenance has always come within 24hours (never had any serious issues) There is always resident events and it is very clear they have a nice budget for these. Drinks, food, ect.. The staff is SO NICE. This is has been the most pleasant apartment experience ive had in YEARS .

Trevon is amazing and soo patient! I'm now on my 3rd lease and he made the process of me moving to a different unit seamlessly. He always check in with me if I need anything. He definitely adds value to the professionalism of the agents and staff.

What's not to love about Aris Market Square?! Living here for the past year has been nothing short of amazing. Management takes the best care of their tenants, a big thank you to Marlene who has been there every step of the way! The staff has done an amazing job of keeping the property in pristine shape! If you're looking for luxury living with a awesome community this is your place!

I just popped in to look at the property since I was in the area, and I was blown away! There are many apartment choices in Houston, but this WILL be my next HOME! The welcoming staff brings Aris to the top of my list. Although I did not have time to take a tour Mahi was very welcoming, and pleasant, she did not disregard me even though I was not ready to look at the floor plan. The amenity spaces that I had time to look at reminds me of a Resort. Mahi, I will be back to tour.

I moved in 6 years ago. There have been quite a few new highrise residential buildings that have been constructed in that time here in downtown, but NONE of them compare to the quality of life, leasing team, service staff, and residents here at Aris Market Square!

Amazing location! I have lived in many apartment complexes and this is by far one of the nicest ones to live in. Close to all downtown locations, many social events on site, and excellent attention to the tenants. Front office, valets, and maintenance team made my time here enjoyable. Highly recommend property

I gave this place a three because I've literally toured this place two times within a six month time frame and both experience with one of the consultants were horrible. Even though I really liked the apartment and the view, it was important to me that the energy and vibe of the place I will be living and people whom I will be interacting with on a daily basis be of a positive welcoming and friendly nature. I'm not writing this review regarding all the leasing consultants at the Aris Market Square Apartments, however, this one woman in particular who I toured with an interacted with on both occasions is the absolute reason why I went with another high rise community as opposed to Aris Market Square Apartments. I was so turned off by the energy level on this tour, i didn't even want to see the remainder of the property. I thought to myself, is this what I'll have to be dealing with for a year. Now ask yourself this, if I've encountered this type of interaction twice within a six month time frame, I can only imagine how many others didn't rent at the market square for the same reason. Thanks to her poor people skills, I found myself at The Travis. Can't even compare the energy level, the friendliness of the leasing consultants and the concierge. I went on a tour at The Travis, fell in love with the hospitality before i even toured the apartment itself. That's how wonderful the staff was from the introduction. They had me at "HELLO" :)

I came into this property to inquire on a potential apartment. I was ignored by the leasing agents and was told by the concierge that they were busy. When I asked with what he said it was due to "a bunch of kids that were previously in the building and an inspection they had this morning". Both of the leasing agents were sitting at their desks while I was waiting and retreated to a back office after I had been sitting there for 5-10 minutes. I've been profiled before and I know exactly what that feels like. I contacted Greystar, the management company, to inform them of their leasing agent's rude behavior and I never received a response. This occurred a few weeks ago, but I was giving Greystar some time to respond. I don't normally leave reviews and typically let this type of stuff go, but the way I was treated was so egregious I felt the need to let others know.

When my wife and I visited Mahlet was well informed of the area and helpful. Mahlet showed us a one bedroom and it was very spacious. With a balcony that has spectacular views. The pizzeria downstairs is so convenient and delicious. I would recommend this place to friends and family.

Great staff and building! Must check out if moving to Houston, so close to everything!

Aris Market Square is simply put the best place we have ever lived! The views from our 2 bedroom overlooked Minute Maid Park and the Rice Lofts- can't be beat! Even better than the views are the AMAZING people who work there. Stephanie is easily the best manager I have met and the building would not be what it is without the incredible Constantine. Those two go above and beyond everyday, and truly create an experience that is bar none the best downtown.

Aris Market Square sits on top of a pizzeria. 5 stars right there. Need I say more? Oh wait, there's more. Should you happen to grab a slice and feel that you cannot finish it, feel free to store it in the package room refrigerators. Should you need to work off those calories, the gym has a two-dimensional smith machine to get in proper squats and a punching bag to practice defending yourself against people trying to steal your pizza. If you cannot punch because you're obviously holding a slice of pizza in each hand, you can ready your evasion skills by maintaining your bike in the bike repair room or have valet rush your car down with the touch of a button on your iPhone. Even without the pizza, Aris is easily one of the best places where I've lived (over 30 places in 11 different cities). The people that run Aris is what makes it so great. You may end up fat, but you will not be disappointed. Life is good here.

*** New Update after living at Aris for 3 years!!*** Updated 10/16/2020!! I moved out of my studio unit a year ago and moved into the spacious 1 bedroom A3 unit and love it!!! The balcony and views are unlike any other in the city! Nothing bad to report as if anything everything has remained great or even gotten better!! We recently had a turnover of the leasing staff and managers BUT I am pleasantly surprised at how amazing the new staff is.. ( As I was one of the first people to rent at Aris and having strong friendships with the old leasing staff and managers I was scared I would not see that same energy) BUT the new manager Necole is one of the best managers I have ever come across (and that is saying a lot as our previous manager was fantastic). Necole knows customer service like a true and tried professional! She is amazing and so gifted with customer service and has so many great attributes to managing her staff by leading as she does and also the way she puts the residents and potential residents needs first! What a bonus for us to have Necole on board at our Highrise as many highrises have bad management, Necole stands out and runs this building with success. Also, the new assistant manager Stephanie is fantastic and the leasing agents Mchelan and Siera are perfect leasing professionals that will truly make your stay incredible and give you an amazing tour of the building with some class and professionalism. I have been a resident at Aris for 3 years now since they opened the building and I am still so happy to be here and LOVING IT!!!*** This review is on 10/16/2020. I moved in around October 2017. Go get a Tour today!!

This place was really nice. I had never heard of this place. It was extravagant and classy. I really enjoyed myself. It was a party that had everything that you can possibly want. It was actually a party. The food and drinks were on point. The atmosphere was a good vibe. Lots of very friendly people. I would visit this place again.

Terrible building and even worse management. Do not live here!!! The guy at the lobby is the worst. Not friendly and not helpful at all!!!

I don't think management can handle the building actually being occupied. They don't seem interested in enforcing basic community rules, so it's turned into exactly what many didn't like about Market Square Tower. For some, the idea of paying rent and being able to do whatever the hell you want is appealing. For everyone else, you have to deal with the inconvenience: blaring music, howling dogs, poop in the hallway, garbage pile-ups, cigarette butts and broken glass in the pool, smoking (tobacco and weed) in the halls/on balconies/in common areas. On top of all that, valet is a joke, and the ventilation system is flawed (to the max). Your vents actually funnel sound into your apartment from outside AND they connect you to your neighbors apartment. Have fun smelling everything that happens next door. If the choice is the Tower vs. Aris, go with Market Square Tower. They have A LOT more amenities. But better yet, spend thousands of dollars on rent somewhere else entirely.

The leasing office needs more help. Just two of them is not enough or they make it seem like it's not. I left a good review to soon. This has been the worst experience I have ever had with a apartment complex. You can provide everything they ask for & they will make up anything to drag your application along. A lot of people been telling me about the Travis is really nice. So much for a greystar community

Aris Market Square is an exceptional upscale community that's located in a great spot in the downtown area. My lease ended at my previous place in June, and during my apartment search I visited over 10 apartments in various areas of Houston. Aris was actually the last place I visited and during my tour I was immediately impressed with the facility, the quality, the service and the residents. Aris feels like an intimate, right-knit community which I think is hard to create in a high rise. I have lived here for a month now and have had a fantastic time. The shared spaces are extremely well-kept and clean. The leasing agents are all outstanding and the concierge is top notch as well. I would absolutely recommend Aris to anyone that is looking to move to a luxury complex.

I very much enjoy living here and the staff is incredibly nice. Concierge and valet are truly the icing on the cake and hits expectation in high rise living and great customer service. If you're looking for great views, outstanding service, and access to all major road ways in just two lights puts you in the heart of the city. Thanks Aris market square team! - Happy resident!

Great Building, Great customer service and location. Teri has been nothing short of amazing in assisting me with different requests ever since i have moved in. I give them 5 stars.

This place is nothing short of amazing. Concierge services, valet and the leasing staff are very friendly and helpful. Building is nice and always clean. The views are beautiful and the perfect location for business and recreation. Definitely 5 stars.
