The Readers’ Choice Awards questionnaire is comprised of lists of possible candidates in different categories, and a minimum number of responses are required to be eligible for a Readers’ Choice Award.  The candidates are judged on a criteria which is specifically relevant to their category, based upon a five-point scale from excellent, very good, fair and poor.

Emerging as the top readers’ pick of all Houston hotels, the venerable Lancaster earned the highest score at 98.57 points out of 100-point scale. Hotel ZaZa at Memorial City earned 96.97 points, while the ZaZa’s Museum District sister hotel scored 96.85 points.
