No, the only hotel at the airport is not so great, and no place to walk really (I am a walker).

When I want to walk, I try to (and usually do) find a cart, put my carryon on it, and just wonder the halls of the terminals. Term D is particularly deserted and suitable for walking before the afternoon flights by foreign carriers.

As *A I normally connect at IAH (opposed to when I used to fly out of there) in int'l itins, so spend good two hours at President's Club, always Term E. Short of going to the mall, there really isn't much to do close to the airport itself.
