Anyone Know Anything About Houston, TX?
WOW...Juan is quite comprehensive. All I can tell you is that the Hotel Derek is located in a really great spot (and no, in that area there really isn't much that is more reasonably priced). The hotel is located at Loop 610 & Westheimer which is one block from the world renowned Houston Galleria (Huge mall) and very near many of Houstons' hot spots for nightlife. Take a cab... As far as dining, your hotel is centrally located and you can pick & choose as you like. Sorry, I would recommend some places but I don't know what you like and Houston has it all. If the consierge at the Derek doesn't know about what you are interested in just call the St. Regis Hotel (formerly The Ritz-Carlton & is only a couple blocks away from your hotel) and ask for the consierge...he will answer all of your questions and you are getting a free service as they will presume that you are a guest there & are paying a fortune. I know...dishonesty isn't good but you only have ONE weekend...Make the best of it and please don't think badly of me. Enjoy your trip!

How do you describe buenos aires in argentina?
Hola, Buenos Aires is a Latin American city with a European flavor. People like calling it "The Paris of South America," but that doesn't do it justice. BA has it's very own unique character that makes it stand out from every other city in the world. There are so many things to do in the city, with lots of art, history, culture and an incredible nightlife. And, you're only a short local flight away from many great natural sights, like the glaciers in Ushuaia and the amazing waterfall of Iguazu.
