Our Story
Welcome to Solarium and The Courts, Houston’s premier destination where social sport meets elevated hospitality. Located in the heart of Midtown at 820 Holman Street, Solarium reimagines the recreational sports experience with a chic, luxurious twist. Brought to life by Rex Hospitality Group and The Kirby Group Solarium includes a 9,000-square-foot, multi-level sanctuary of play, bites, sips, and style.
Designed as a bespoke alternative to the traditional racket sport complex, Solarium blends the vibrancy of pickleball and padel culture with the refined atmosphere of a modern-day country club. From curated menus and lounge, plush seating to private court bays and a personalized pro-shop experience, every detail is crafted to elevate the way you play, dine, and unwind, an oasis in the heart of the city.
Solarium includes a striking glass-enclosed lounge serving as a sunlit oasis for both players, spectators, and diners. With inviting textures, warm wood tones, velvet seating, and signature accents in Rolex green, taupe, and matte black, the space captures the perfect balance of energy and elegance.
Step outside to The Courts, featuring four pickleball courts and two padel courts surrounded by five private, glass-fronted bays made from upcycled shipping containers— each climate controlled with the full menu available and brought to you. Whether you're playing, hosting, or watching from above on our elevated viewing deck, Solarium delivers a seamless fusion of social sport and luxury leisure.
The menu offers a fresh take on modern clubhouse classics—from bold appetizers and handcrafted skewers to refreshing salads and indulgent desserts—all designed to fuel the fun. The beverage program serves up creative twists on classics, a vibrant frozen cocktail lineup, and refreshing, crushable courtside drinks designed for all-day enjoyment.
With pickleball exploding in popularity and padel rising as a global favorite, Solarium is at the forefront of a new era in social sport. Rooted in hospitality and inspired by community, Solarium is more than a venue—it’s a lifestyle destination where Houston comes to serve and be served.
