Arriving at Four Seasons first city stay, I was mentally equipped for a cool city vibe. Instead, it was a warm and an open embrace right there that made me feel closer to home. Houston, also known as the Bayou City, is a place where genuine Southern hospitality mingles with a bit of metropolitan energy. It’s a city of stark contrasts, where gleaming skyscrapers rise among historic landmarks and fine dining exists side by side with the best barbecue joints.

Toro Toro’s breakfast is the most extravagant treat of Latin-inspired cuisine, located in a tiny nook of a dining room with a simulated fireplace. The courses are completelyladen with flavor and with gourmetingredients. The rancheros— perfectly fried eggs on crispy tortillas, drowned in thick tomato-chili sauce, and topped with avocado, queso fresco, and fresh cilantro—were simply divine.

Did you know that at the Four Seasons, guests can go around in a chauffeur-driven Lucid Air for an adventure? All destinations within two miles from the hotel are included in the offer. These excursions within dynamic Houston kept us in awe of its culinary dishes and culture that blended perfectly with the Four Seasons’ timeless elegance—a dream from dawn to dusk that I wished would never end.
