When looking for accommodation during your months long medical residency in Houston, location is everything. After a hectic day at the clinic, the last thing you’ll want to deal with is a long commute home (especially if you’re working at the Texas Medical Center). But on your days off, you also don’t want to be too far away from all the cool things Houston has to offer.
While your immediate thought may be to Google medical residency apartments or housing for away rotations near the Texas Medical Center, Lodgeur’s on-demand housing offers hotel-like consistency and amenities with an added bonus: a stylish, fully-furnished apartment all to yourself.
We have hosted more than 8,000 guests, from locals and out-of-towners staying for the weekend to traveling medical professionals and patients staying for months at a time.
When you stay in a Lodgeur apartment in Midtown or the Texas Medical Center, you can expect a professionally designed space that’s fully-equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We’ve thought of it all- from our cozy, memory foam mattress and high speed internet to an organized kitchen and lounge-ready living room.
Now here’s come the hard part, deciding which Lodgeur location best fits your needs during your medical residency in Houston: Mid Main Lofts or Elan Med Center.
At Mid Main Lofts, we have 50 fully-furnished apartments ready to rent, including studios, 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom units. It’s conveniently located between downtown and the TMC with its own stop on the METRORail line right outside the building. Driving to TMC can be a headache (especially during rush hour), so oftentimes traveling medical professionals use the METRORail instead. (If you’re new to this kind of public transportation, don’t worry, we have a fool-proof guide to help you get around the city like a local!)
The METRORail also serves as a great way to explore some of the city’s most popular neighborhoods like Downtown and the Museum District! The METRORail makes getting around a breeze, but on those days you don’t feel like traveling far to enjoy a beer or grab a bite to eat, you have access to all kinds of restaurants and bars within a three-block radius. Midtown is known as one of the most bustling and walkable parts of town, so you’ll have plenty of places to explore right on your doorstep!
Situated in the Texas Medical Center neighborhood, Elan Med Center is a top choice for traveling medical professionals looking for medical residency housing. It’s 0.8 miles away from TMC (You can see MD Anderson from your window!), so you’ll often see doctors and nurses walking or traveling by electric scooter to get to work.
Elan Med Center is also just a short drive away from some southwest Houston’s most iconic locations: Hermann Park. Houston Zoo, Rice Village, and the Museum District. But if you don’t feel like driving, you can always take METRORail from the TMC and be in Midtown or downtown in minutes!
Lodgeur offers medical residency apartments in convenient locations with an added bonus: it’s move-in ready the moment you get the keys! No boxes, movers or furniture assembly required.
We make it easy for traveling medical professionals, nurses and medical students to find extended stays for clinical rotations and book with nothing more than a click.
