The La Maison Midtown is in the perfect location to explore some of Houston’s best restaurants and entertainment venues.

Six Acres Bed & Breakfast
This bed & breakfast was built in a former safe house part of the Underground Railroad in Cincinnati, Ohio. The house was built in the 1850s by Zebulon Strong, a farmer who supposedly had a fake bottom in his wagon where he would put his crops in the top and hide passengers in the bottom to take them safely back to the house. The owner’s goal is to maintain the integrity of the home by honoring its original use of providing food and shelter to weary travelers.
