Planning a trip to Houston’s world-famous museums? This is your sign to skip the boring hotels and book a stay at Lodgeur, Midtown’s largest hotelier. Our fully furnished apartments provide the comforts of home right on the METRORail Red Line, delivering you just minutes away from top attractions like the Museum of Fine Arts Houston (MFAH).
With artwork spanning from antiquity to today, the renowned MFAH should be at the top of your Houston museum must-see list. But before losing yourself among Mesoamerican artifacts and surrealist classics, secure lodging as captivating as the collections.
Houston’s famous Museum District boasts 20 museums in 4 walkable zones, and most of them are free on select Thursdays. Check out our list of the most popular Houston museums with free access during some or all Thursday hours. To learn more about the museums and the current exhibits, check out the Houston Museum District website. Prices vary for special exhibitions and special events. (We also share our favorite restaurants in the Museum District here.)
Stationed in Midtown at 3550 Main Street, Lodgeur at Mid Main Lofts could not be better located for museum goers. The Museum District practically neighbors Lodgeur at Mid Main Lofts —just two quick stops down the tracks. Many other exceptional area museums are accessible in minutes as well, including:

At Lodgeur, adventure takes a quick train, not an overcrowded museum lobby. Our fully furnished apartments are next door to the Houston METRORail Red Line for unbeatable access to world-famous exhibits.
Lodgeur at Mid Main Lofts enjoys one of the best locations in the city. Situated on the METRORail’s Red Line, guests are just 4 stops away from the downtown Theater District (Red Line/Main Street Square Station) and two stops from Rice University (Red Line/Rice U Station). The same line takes you to the Texas Medical Center, Toyota Center and NRG Stadium.
If you need a ride, Lodgeur has partnered with premium car service partner Alto for discounted rides. Alto stands out from ride share companies like Uber or Lyft because it has its own fleet of luxury vehicles, professional drivers, and a premium level of service.
If you’re looking for a traditional hotel experience, the Hotel Zaza Museum District and the Blossom Hotel are the best Houston Museum District hotels. Hotels in Houston typically charge $50/night for parking. (The Zaza doesn’t disclose its parking prices, but it is a valet-only hotel.) Most other hotels in the area service patients and healthcare professionals visiting the Texas Medical Center. Other Museum District visitors opt to stay in Houston downtown, at a convention-style hotel, and drive to the museums.
Lodgeur takes short-term stays up a notch, with studios, one-bedrooms and two-bedrooms larger than any suites at at the best hotels. Staying with Lodgeur means getting a great night’s sleep in a king-sized bed with memory foam mattress and plush bedding. With perks like free parking, in-unit laundry, and chef-ready kitchens, Lodgeur rentals are outfitted for adventure and have a lower average nightly price than traditional hotel rooms in the Museum District. Unhotel yourself and enjoy Houston your way.
Whether traveling solo, as a couple or with a large family, Lodgeur offers Houston’s best places to stay for museum visitors. Our fully equipped units allow you to relax and recharge during your cultural adventures. Far from cramped hotel quarters, Lodgeur’s Houston properties range from cozy studios to two-bedrooms.
Special kid-friendly amenities are also available, so the whole family can tour Houston museums comfortably. With grocery stores and restaurants also a quick stroll away, fueling up for the day or grabbing late-night snacks is easy too. (Don’t miss the enormous paleontology exhibit at the Houston Museum of Natural Science if you have dinosaur fans in your party!)
