Houston Business Journal has ranked Lodgeur No. 49 among the largest employers in Downtown and East Downtown Houston in its 2026 rankings.

The recognition marks another milestone in Lodgeur’s growth from a Houston startup founded in 2019 into a local hospitality company operating furnished apartments across Houston and North Texas.

Lodgeur was also ranked No. 987 among the largest employers across the Greater Houston area in Houston Business Journal’s 2026 list of more than 1,000 businesses, nonprofits and governmental organizations.

“We built Lodgeur in Houston, so seeing our team recognized among the city’s largest downtown employers is particularly meaningful,” said Sébastien Long, co-founder and CEO of Lodgeur. “Our growth comes down to the people who design apartments, launch new locations, care for our guests and make the operation work every day.”

Lodgeur provides professionally managed, design-led furnished apartments for extended stays, corporate travel, relocation, medical travel and shorter visits. The company also partners with multifamily owners to transform vacant apartments into furnished hospitality inventory.

Since its founding, Lodgeur has grown across Midtown, Upper Kirby, the Texas Medical Center, the Energy Corridor and other Texas markets.
