Hotel ZaZa Memorial City
Houston, Texas, United States · Hotel ZaZa · Core Luxury
MetroNational opened this purpose-built 17-story tower at 9787 Katy Freeway on 1 December 2017, and the ribbon cutting a week later came with a Veuve Clicquot toast. Duncan Miller Ullmann, who had already designed the Museum District house, gave the rooms a Palm Springs midcentury mood: 159 keys, including the Magnificent Seven suites, on the lower ten floors, and 133 McCarthy apartments on the seven floors above.
- 159 rooms
- Opened 2017
- Neighborhood: Memorial City
- Rooms from 345 sq ft (32 m²)

About Hotel ZaZa Memorial City
- Tipping Point is the restaurant and terrace. Hotel guests get ZaSpa and a pool with cabanas, while the apartments above keep a pool of their own.
- Ground broke in October 2015 beside Interstate 10 at Bunker Hill. Memorial City Mall is a short walk. The Museum District ZaZa is the other Houston house.
- Houston Public Media noted the apartments were there so the tower would not depend on filling a big convention hotel in a soft 2017 market.
- Entry-level rooms start at 345 sq ft (32 m²).
History
Hotel ZaZa Memorial City is a purpose-built 17-story tower, not a conversion. MetroNational broke ground in October 2015 at 9787 Katy Freeway. Duncan Miller Ullmann designed the interiors, including themed suites, after the firm's work on the Museum District ZaZa. The hotel opened 1 December 2017 with 159 rooms on the lower ten floors. A ribbon cutting on 8 December included a Veuve Clicquot toast with Matthew Nuss, general manager Ian Bush, and MetroNational president Jason Johnson. The McCarthy apartments, 133 of them on the seven floors above, were slated for January 2018.
