EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Courtyard Houston Hobby Airport offers buyers the rare opportunity to acquire an upscale 153-room hotel just minutes from Houston’s Hobby Airport. The Marriott-branded, 181,210-square-foot property was originally constructed on the 4.16-acre lot in 1995 and was fully renovated in 2005. Desirable and well-maintained amenities of the property include an outdoor pool, a fitness center, a convenience store, a reservable meeting space, and an on-site restaurant.
The new owner of the Courtyard Houston Hobby Airport must complete a property improvement plan (PIP) of approximately $25,000 per key. Completing the PIP allows the use of a franchise agreement for 15 to 20 years. Delivered free of debt and management, this hotel is a major turnaround opportunity in a booming submarket at well below replacement cost.
An ideal location in Southeast Houston places the hotel just 10 miles from downtown, near popular destinations, including the University of Houston and Almeda Mall. The hotel sits just off I-45/Gulf Freeway, the major thoroughfare to the DFW Metroplex and a primary artery to Downtown Houston. Highly visible signage can be seen by approximately 200,000 vehicles per day, with easy points of ingress and 155 on-site parking spaces allowing the hotel to capitalize on the robust exposure. The region is one of Houston’s busiest for overnight visitors, sitting less than 2 miles from William P. Hobby Airport, which hosts 12 million passengers annually. A major confluence of industrial facilities in the area is home to critical operations for Manheim Texas Hobby, FedEx, Powell Industries, and many more. This concentration of vital demand drivers and job centers has driven an impressive recent performance in the Houston Hobby Airport hospitality submarket, with occupancy up 6% annually, ADR up 21.6%, and RevPAR up 29%.
Houston is a popular tourist destination that is well known for its vibrant cultural scene, world-class attractions like Space Center Houston, and a thriving arts and entertainment industry, as well as its diverse culinary landscape. More than 51 million visitors traveled to the city in 2024, more than 70% of whom stayed overnight. Additionally, the city smashed its stretch goal of 830,000 room bookings from solely its convention-based events. With sprawling convention centers including the NRG Center and the George R. Brown Convention Center, Houston hosts many of the state’s largest gatherings, such as the Houston Build Expo, the Offshore Technology Conference, and the Houston Home + Garden Show.
Don’t miss out on this chance to acquire a Marriott-branded hotel in a high-performing submarket near Southeast Houston’s busiest demand drivers at the Courtyard Houston Hobby Airport.
