Top University of Texas Medical Branch Hotel Reviews

Best Western Plus Seawall Inn & Suites By The Beach

10/10 Excellent

"The front clerk Elizabeth was exceptionally helpful, informative and friendly!!"

Hotel Lucine

8/10 Good

"The vibe of Hotel Lucine is exactly what I was looking for - mid 20th century, beach front. Quaint setting. Friendly, helpful staff. Coffee bar and fruit-infused water in the lobby on a small, intimate scale. Quiet, relaxing during the week, but on the weekend, the rooftop bar fired up with live music amidst the sea breezes and the full, orange moon. We truly felt immersed. I can find a large, chain hotel anywhere, but this one really says "Galveston"."

"Great stay here! Quiet, comfortable, and good location--walkable to many places. Parking was no problem, although this was on a weekday.
