"An anchor in CityCentre (the 37-acre, mixed-use development unveiled in west Houston in 2009), Hotel Sorella has an intimate, boutique feel with graphic interior touches and contemporary furnishings. Guest rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows, walk-in showers, and custom beds with Egyptian cotton linens and non-allergenic goose down and foam pillows. Amid 22 upscale shops (Lululemon, Kendra Scott, Anthropologie, Free People, Paper Source, and H&M) and an eight-screen Studio Movie Grill, the hotel’s back door is an outdoor plaza with green space where kids can run around. Musicians play Wednesday through Saturday. The open-air, European-style development caters to pedestrians and alfresco dining."

"What's your first impression?The first thing you'll notice about The Moran (formerly the Sorella) is its dynamite location near shops, dining, and entertainment. So what’s the crowd like?Shopping enthusiasts—you're right by the CityCentre plaza in Memorial City, a mixed-use space with something for everyone. Thoughts about your room?We stayed in a Classic King room, which had views of the Energy Corridor. Nothing about the room was particularly exciting; however, you won't be disappointed, either. There is free wifi, though. What's the dining scene like?There's room service available during breakfast, but the breakfast buffet is complimentary. Any favorite features?The Monnalisa bar has live music, and a third-floor spa is a nice little respite from the comings and goings at street level. Cool. So what's the bottom line?If you need a place to stay in the Energy Corridor, you won't be let down by Hotel Sorella, which offers modern rooms in a buzzy location." - Diana Oates

Location was very good-- City Centre has many stores/restaurants to choose from. Unfortunately, check in process was not smooth. Could not check in at the time promised (3 PM-- I think I was finally able to check in at 4 PM). Reason given was that hotel was "completely booked" the night before and "cleaning staff had not completed their job and/or updated the computer system"). No acknowledgement of the inconvenience this caused and very poor communication. Elevators are quite slow. Guest rooms are comfortable, although tub was small. 2 Peloton bikes in gym, but one was broken. Breakfast was good. Bar was enjoyable.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Moran Hotel in Houston, and I can confidently say it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. From the moment I arrived, the staff was warm, welcoming, and extremely professional. The check-in process was seamless, and I was immediately impressed by the hotel's modern and stylish ambiance. The room was spacious, impeccably clean, and beautifully designed, with all the amenities I could ask for. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the view from my window was stunning. I could tell that attention to detail is a top priority at the Moran, as everything was perfectly arranged for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. The hotel's location was also ideal—conveniently situated near some of Houston's best dining, shopping, and entertainment options. Whether you're visiting for business or leisure, it offers the perfect balance of comfort, luxury, and convenience. I also had the chance to dine at the hotel's restaurant, and the food was exceptional. The service was prompt and friendly, making it a fantastic dining experience. Overall, I highly recommend the Moran Hotel to anyone visiting Houston. It offers a perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and outstanding service. I will definitely be staying here again!

Jay did an amazing job working with to make sure all my family were on the same floor. Since we only had 4 different families staying we couldn’t do group pricing or blocked rooms, so Jay had to do this manually.. He was able to get this done fairly quickly . An excellent touch by Jay was that he noticed my brother that staying we were celebrating his 50th so Jay offered him a bottle wine! What excellent service. I also was celebrating my bday so Jay graciously offered me one too! There was 17 people in our party ans we chose to come back to the bar after our show at the hotel. JC was patient with our large group coming to order drinks all at once. Overall the service was excellent here! Jay great job!!

I stay at this hotel every year for a month at the new year and every year I love it more and more. The staff is truly amazing and an absolute pleasure to see each year. Jamal always helps me with my reservation and secures the perfect room. This year, Sophie also helped with my reservation as another level of assurance. I truly enjoy catching up with each year. Mojeed at this point knows many of family members and greets them when they come to pick me up. Juan is a pleasure to see at reception each morning. If there is anything a guest needs to improve their stay-he will make it happen. Ryan at reception also goes above and beyond. This year at breakfast I truly enjoyed getting to know Amparo, who manages the restaurant, and Fiorella who works along side her. I cannot say enough about how much I love this hotel and the entire staff. I highly recommend that you stay here!

Met Jay at check-in and he made sure every part of my stay was perfect. Told me about parking, gave restaurant advice, directions for shopping. Always had a smile on his face and was willing to help.|Hotel room was beautiful, overlooking green area of CityCentre. Room had everything I needed and shower water pressure was perfection. Robes and hand steamer were added bonuses. |Loved being able to walk everywhere in evenings. Great stay and look forward to coming back again.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible experience at The Moran hotel’s New Year’s party! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and hospitality that instantly made us feel at home. The food was outstanding—every dish was a delightful treat for the senses, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. It was truly a culinary journey that set the perfect tone for the evening. The service was exceptional. Every staff member was attentive, friendly, and eager to ensure we had everything we needed for a memorable night. Their genuine smiles and helpfulness really made a difference. The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the live band. They were absolutely fantastic! Their energy was contagious, and we found ourselves dancing all night long, enjoying every beat and note. The atmosphere was electric, filled with laughter and joy as we celebrated the arrival of 2025. Thank you, The Moran hotel, for making this New Year's celebration so special. You helped us create beautiful memories that we will cherish for years to come. Here’s to many more fabulous gatherings in the future! ---

I booked the Moran for myself and my wedding guests who flew into Houston from out of town, and could not be happier with the results: -The valet staff were so friendly, and made my out-of-town guests feel extremely welcome. *Polo*, from Valet Services, went above and beyond in welcoming my family and always ensuring that their needs were taken care of. Thank you, Polo - you are the best! -Seamless, thoughtful room booking blocks with *Celeste Tidwell*, who ensured that our entire event went perfectly. Celeste gave me a thorough walk-through of each room option, helped upgrade my bridal suite, showed me what the photography options for the day-of (within Moran) would look like, and kept me up-to-date as each guest booked parts of our room block. She accommodated special requests and even went the extra mile of having the bridal party's breakfast delivered to us the morning of so that we had one less thing to worry about! -We booked 2 penthouse suites for our getting ready photos and for the bridal/groomsmen party. They were so spacious, clean, and beautiful, which translated to our wedding photos. -The front desk staff were so courteous and ensured our welcome bags were given to all guests. Special shout-out to *Ryan* for his exceptional service! 10/10 would recommend for a special event, and our guests couldn't stop raving about the perfect location in City Center (especially those who don't drive!)
