Better than Midtown for bars? No. Better than every other part of downtown, yes.
These are the bars that are located within a two block radius from Icon (two or three of these aren't open yet): Hearsay, La Carafe, Okra, Batanga, Honeymooner, Captain Foxheart, Goro and Gun, Pastry War, Barringer, El Big Bad, Warren's, and two others I can't remember the name of.
The only bars near JW Marriott are Flying Saucer, Springbok, and Sunny's. Plus, JW is on Rusk, and there's going to be rail construction. It's been going on for two years, and I see no end in sight.
Trust me - I've lived at Main and Capitol for the last three years - for bars downtown, the 300 block of Main is where it's at.

I'll be staying at Sam Houston hotel. Same vicinity and just as nice. Believe the rate is lower also.

Agreed, but I'm a huge Saucer fan and would like it stay in a newly opened JW. Icon is very nice, can't lose either way.

Is that just slowing down or are they not even running from downtown?
