The three hotels in The Woodlands operated by the Howard Hughes Corp.—The Woodlands Resort, The Westin at The Woodlands and Embassy Suites by Hilton at Hughes Landing—suspended operations at 4 p.m. March 22, according to a Howard Hughes news release.
The locations will be closed until further notice, according to the corporation.
"The safety and wellbeing of our valued employees, our communities and our guests, is our highest priority," according to the release. "As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have made the difficult decision to temporarily suspend operations of our hotels and restaurants at The Woodlands Resort, The Westin at The Woodlands and Embassy Suites by Hilton at Hughes Landing. Updates will be posted on our hotel websites as they become available."
Visit The Woodlands, the convention and visitors bureau for The Woodlands, discussed the challenges ahead for the hospitality industry at its meeting last week. The Woodlands Waterway Marriott Hotel and Convention Center was operating at 7% occupancy last week, according to officials.
