During your Houston vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:

Battleship Texas and San Jacinto Monument & Museum
On the San Jacinto Battleground in 1836, Texas won its independence from Mexico with a crushing surprise attack by the Texan forces, whose battle cry was "Remember the Alamo!" To commemorate that victory, civic leaders in 1936 built a towering obelisk as tall as the Washington Monument but topped with a Texas Lone Star. In the base of the monument is a small museum of Texas history with some interesting exhibits, such as one about the relatively unsung Texas hero, "Deaf" Smith, and a collection of watercolors of the Mexican War painted by Sam Chamberlain. There is also a small auditorium where you can watch a 35-minute documentary of the battle. If you would like to view some of the Port of Houston as well as the rest of the land for miles around, you can take the elevator up to the observation room in the top floor of the tower, which is more than 500 feet above the ground.Across from the monument, in roughly the same place from where the Texans began their advance, is the USS Texas. Built in 1914, before improvements in warplane technology made these large dreadnought battleships vulnerable, she is the last of her kind. Between the wars the navy modernized the ship with antiaircraft and torpedo defenses, but it's still surprising that it survived World War II, having fought in both the Atlantic and the Pacific theaters. When you visit you can clamber up to its small-caliber guns or onto the navigation bridge, inspect the crew's quarters and check out the engine room. Life on board was no picnic -- the quarters were cramped and facilities were minimal -- so it is interesting to learn that this ship was considered a lucky assignment. Plan on at least an hour to see the Texas, and as much again for the monument.

SplashTown
A 45-minute drive from downtown, SplashTown holds special events and live entertainment throughout the season. It gets really crowded here, mainly with kids from north Houston suburbs and The Woodlands.

Six Flags AstroWorld & Six Flags WaterWorld
Farther south of Hermann Park and the Texas Medical Center is the new Reliant Stadium and the old Astrodome (the city still hasn't figured out what to do with this structure), and just south of it across the Loop 610 Freeway is AstroWorld, a 75-acre park with several high-tech roller coasters, other thrill rides, performance venues, and theme areas. Highlights include the Serial Thriller, a roller coaster that has you suspended in a seat while it twirls you through seven inversions. In Dungeon Drop you can experience free fall, and the Texas Tornado steel roller coaster does four loops at breakneck speed. Almost all of these rides are for children 48 inches or taller. For smaller children there are themed areas such as the one based on Warner Brothers' Looney Tunes characters.WaterWorld, open from late spring to early fall, is one of those aquatic parks that requires a sturdy bathing suit. It's part of AstroWorld, and admission is free when you buy an AstroWorld ticket. It offers water rides and games with a mixture of chutes and slides that you ride with or without a raft or other device. Again, many require that children be 48 inches or taller. Six Flags owns another, larger water park called SplashTown.

Make your reservations for discount hotel rooms in the Houston area, including:

Doubletree Guest Suites
This 26-story hotel, located a block west of the Galleria shopping complex, offers extra-large, plainly furnished suites, each with a fully equipped kitchen (including microwave and dishwasher) and a dining area for four people. (A grocery store is 4 blocks away, and Eatzi's is even closer.) The bedroom includes two full-size beds or a king-size; the sitting room has a sofa or two, armchairs, and a large TV. Bathrooms are large with plenty of counter space. The hotel is well priced, gets a lot of repeat business, and is a favorite for extended stays. The two-bedroom suites are a really good deal. The service is good.

Drury Inn & Suites Houston Hobby
This hotel, in the vicinity of the Hobby Airport, is virtually identical (except in price) to the Drury Inn & Suites Near the Galleria. It's worth your while to check prices here because the rooms and amenities are competitively priced and often discounted, and the property is well managed. Deluxe rooms and suites are large and come with fridge and microwave. Complimentary cocktails are served in the afternoon from Monday to Thursday. Guests also receive an hour of free long-distance calls within the U.S.

Hilton Houston Plaza
In terms of amenities, service, and location, this is the best of the hotels around the Medical Center. Consequently, it enjoys a high occupancy rate, especially with people attending medical conferences. As the occupancy rate increases so do the prices (well above those quoted here). Try to book early and, if you have any flexibility, get rates for different dates. Making matters worse for travelers on a budget is the small number of standard rooms, only 40 out of 181.The hotel's facilities set this hotel apart from neighboring hotels. The large rooms are comfortable and well furnished. The building is 19 stories tall, with views toward either the Medical Center or Rice University; it's a toss-up as to which is prettier. The hotel's location on the rim of the Medical Center is actually an advantage over its principal Medical Center rivals (a Marriott and a Crowne Plaza) because it makes getting to and from the hotel easier, avoiding the Medical Center traffic jams and the tight parking garages.
