Description

Join Our Team at The District at Hogg Palace Downtown Houston! The District at Hogg Palace Downtown Houston is seeking a Part-Time Hotel Night Auditor, Overnight Hotel Guest Service Agent, Overnight Hotel Front Desk Clerk, or Overnight Hotel Front Office Agent. About Us: Originally known as Hogg Palace, this 1921 landmark was built by William C. Hogg, son of Texas Governor Jim Hogg. It began life as Houston's premier auto showroom, and its industrial bones — soaring concrete ceilings, massive factory windows, and original hardwood floors — tell the story of a city on the rise. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the building stands as a testament to adaptive reuse done right. We've preserved the raw industrial character while adding the modern comforts that today's travelers expect. The result is unlike any hotel in Houston — a place where history and contemporary design coexist, and every stay is a connection to Houston's storied past. Why This Role?
