Visitors and hotel guests of The Houstonian Hotel are greeted in the lobby with a staffed wellness desk, where they are screened and provided a color-of-the-day wristband. “This verification is important because guests want to know that hoteliers are doing everything possible to keep them healthy when they visit,” said Hotel General Manager Steve Fronterhouse. “We have a comprehensive Health and Sanitization Program in place and are strictly following state and local guidelines, while continuing to anticipate the needs of our customers,” he said.

Hotels are required to verify their health protocols on an ongoing basis to ensure continued compliance with the most up-to-date global health standards.
