Getting to Houston
Houston has two ariports that carry all the major airlines, the George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) and the William P. Hobby Airport (Hou). IAH is the hub for Continental Airlines and offer services to many major cities. Southwest Airlines predominantly serves the Hobby Airport. Both airports are a short drive into town with Hobby being the closer, yet smaller airport. IAH is located ~20 miles North of town on US-59, and Hobby is East of town on I-45S.
In case you need some help getting to the hotel from the airport here's some useful information.
The Houston Metro has introduced a new direct shuttle service into downtown Houston departing every 30 minutes for only $15 each way.
You can also schedule your ride through SuperShuttle and they will pick you up at either airport and deliver you to the Sheraton Brookhollow for ~$19 from Hobby and ~$21 from IAH.
Taxi rides to the hotel are ~$45-60 depending on the airport and final destination. Also, check out Houston's local discussion forum is a great place to coordinate these rides.
