Proposed Hyde Park Hotel in Montrose clears Houston planning commission hurdle

A proposed 80-room hotel in Houston’s bustling Montrose area moved one step closer to breaking ground after city planners granted key approvals for the project.

During its most recent meeting, the Houston Planning and Development Commission approved a variance for Austin-based Mighty Equities’ planned Hyde Park Hotel at 704 Hyde Park Blvd., near the corner of Hyde Park Boulevard and Stanford Street. The variance will allow the hotel’s entrance to open on a street that is not a major thoroughfare.

Last summer, the commission signed off on some other variances Mighty Equities had requested.

The hotel must now go through the typical permitting process before it can break ground.

Hyde Park Hotel would be within one block of Barnaby’s Café, Buddy’s, Crocker Bar, Eagle Houston, George and Lola’s Depot.

The proposed hotel's property is currently vacant.
