Hip Hotel with Lakeside Pool Opens Today in North Houston

BOUTIQUE-STYLE HOTEL Indigo opens today just north of Spring, near The Woodlands. The IHG property is a part of a chain, but tailored to the individual community with bespoke design elements.


Each of the 103 guest rooms, including four suites, boasts individually unique art and a palate of earth tones with splashes of color. The building itself homages a Spanish Mission design, inspired by the Catholic missionaries who settled in the area. Installations in common spaces provide a handful of Instagrammable moments, as does the lakeside pool with an al fresco bar.

Inside, the hotel's restaurant, Crudo, offers its own stylish bar, flecked in gold to reflect the region's abundance of black gold. Food and beverage offerings include local specialties like 8th Wonder beer, Katz coffee and Alex Bregman's salsa, Breggy Bomb.

"With our unique design and thoughtful touches taking cues from the local history, architecture, colors and culinary scene, we are able to provide guests a window to the neighborhood through our hotel before exploring it for themselves," said hotel GM Brandon Kitchen in a statement.

Consistent Focus on the Patient Is What Sets Montrose Med Spa Apart

Owner Maricela Olivo and Montrose Med Spa

WHAT MAKES MONTROSE Med Spa stand apart from the competition? We set ourselves apart from the competition by being consistently focused on one thing: the patient. With that focus, we will succeed in a successful and healthy experience and loyalty to Montrose Med Spa. Staying true to our message of intentional wellness is a point of difference where I see other spas being unclear and distracted in their direction. By listening to our patients, we ensure we meet and exceed their expectations. We continually stay on top of the market by offering the best innovative body sculpting and skin treatments that invigorate and energize and are specifically designed to restore balance and strength and renew youth to the body. We also utilize a number of marketing programs to stay on the minds of our guests, including radio, TV, direct mail, email blasts, and unique invitations for exclusive treatments. One element that helps to establish the bar and sets us apart from our competition is our emphasis on providing a complete medical gym experience—from the varied treatments with Emsculpt Neo to a personalized health and wellness and skin evaluation for each individual by our certified staff. We also provide a noninvasive, pain-free, and needle-free facelift through EMFace in addition to offering monthly beauty memberships that create a commitment to the overall wellbeing of the patient.

Guests enjoy 360-degree views from the infinity pool

A PARADISE FOR nature lovers, surfers and adventure seekers, Costa Rica often sees repeat visitors. The seven provinces, though different in the way of microclimates and the presence of volcanoes, cloud forests or beaches, are all predictably friendly, green and breathtakingly beautiful. Travelers come to anticipate and appreciate the “pura vida” lifestyle, i.e. an appreciation for the here-and-now beauty and wonder that the country offers so abundantly.
