10/10 Excellent

"Clean rooms, great breakfast and kind staff. Would recommend this motel."

Hotel Lucine

10/10 Excellent

"Cool mid-century vibe. Pool temp was perfect."

The Mansion on 17th

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay was awesome, we were welcomed as soon as we arrived. The building is over 100 years old and is a gorgeous representation of a mansion from that time period. We were given a brief history of the property. Our room was really nice. The complimentary social hour and breakfast was pleasant. Breakfast was good. I would absolutely stay here again."

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Galveston Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Place was clean and refreshing. Rooms big and cool and the pool is nice. The staff friendly and other hotel guest were nice. Felt like being on a cruise on land. If you book here you’ll get a pool view but partial ocean view or just the ocean view. There are no rooms at the back of the building and that’s awesome. Everyone is facing the ocean"

Surf Motel and Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Everything it's ok, simple but enough for enjoy"

Homewood Suites by Hilton Galveston

10/10 Excellent

"Definitely booking here In the future"

St Helen s House Historic District

10/10 Excellent

"The hostess Miranda met me at the door, very pleasant and helpful. The house is loaded with historic memorabilia and the house is original with what you would expect in a house of its history. This house is for those who love historic buildings! I even commented to family members that this is the type of house we have paid to tour. Hoping the photos give you an idea what to expect, you will not be disappointed if you truly love historic homes. Note: there are stairs and some rooms have shared baths. Talk to the hostess about your preference on the bathroom, stairs are just a part of the charm."

The 1890 Freeman House

10/10 Excellent

"We loved this place! We stayed in the signature room and felt very fancy being in such a beautiful historical place within walking distance to restaurants. Much different vibe than your typical Galveston beach hotel. The soaking tub was very nice as well and super cool balcony. We will be back!"

The George Manor

10/10 Excellent

"This property is superior in every way!! Was looking for an out of the hustle & bustle of the seaside accommodations and this was it! Walking distance to historic district and other Galveston Island attractions. Chef/proprietors Michael & Rosie could not do enough to make us feel welcomed and comfortable. Didn’t have the pleasure of dinner but breakfast was perfect and prepared specifically for us. Loved the grounds, house, and perfectly detailed suite/cottage. Kuddis & thank you to them 😊"
