Cheap in December, dear through the March Rodeo

Houston First's figures lump Reliant Park in with the Medical Center, and in that submarket the Rodeo month is the high point of the months we have: 72.8% occupancy at a $184 average rate in March 2025. The bottom was 48% in December 2025, with January 2026 at 54% and $138 and August 2025 at 56% and $135. Houston First credited the submarket's gains to weekday business travel in 2023, and its 2025 recap credited the city's weekend leisure demand too, so price a Saturday with nothing on at the stadium against a Tuesday.

The Rodeo runs Tuesday, March 2 to Sunday, March 21, 2027, with the barbecue contest February 25 to 27, and Houston First put the submarket near 75% occupancy during the 2024 Rodeo. We found no report of hotels selling out, but Rodeo nights are the ones to book early. The Offshore Technology Conference comes to Reliant Park May 3 to 5, 2027, and the May 2025 show took occupancy over 75% across Downtown, Uptown and the Medical Center at its peak. The remaining Texans home games with dates are Thursday, November 19, Sunday, November 29 and Sunday, December 20, plus a Week 18 home game against Tennessee whose date hasn't been set. Kinder's Texas Bowl is Thursday, December 31, so with the Texans on the 20th that makes two December nights to price separately from the rest of the month.

Houston's hotel tax is 17%: 6% state, 7% city, and 4% for the county and its sports authority. Wyndham's parking is free except on Rodeo and major stadium days. The other parking prices we found are $7 a day at the Holiday Inn Express, $9 at the Residence Inn, $10 at the Holiday Inn and $15 at the SpringHill. The Comfort Suites and the Quality Inn are the two whose booking screens we couldn't read, so their fees are unknown. Rodeo public lots were $25 in 2026, and Kirby Drive closes at 9 p.m. on weekdays and 6 p.m. on weekends during the Rodeo. METRORail's Red Line stops at Stadium Park/Astrodome, about 27 minutes from Downtown, every 6 minutes on weekdays and every 12 on weekends. Fannin South Park & Ride charges $25 to $50 on most special events.
