Homewood Suites by Hilton Galveston

"Property and rooms were clean and tidy. Staff was Great and buffet breakfast was just right. My only concern was the pet odor mainly from the elevator area. No signs of mess but definetly smell lingers. Great experience considering my holiday weekend resorvations were canceled at a different location last minute."

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Galveston Beach

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived late and Dante was extremely kind and friendly. He assisted me with a printing need as we were cruising the next morning. The room was clean and spacious. We had a balcony with a ocean view. Although we didn't get to say for very long we enjoyed the morning on the balcony. I wanted coffee the next morning however they didn't have flavored creamer so I had to pass. I will definitely stay again."

The Lasker Inn - B&B

10/10 Excellent

"I was met at this beautiful historic home by the owner, who was gracious and immediately made me feel like we were friends. He quickly set me up with my entrance code and walked me around the house, showing me everything that was available, including where I could store food and heat something up if needed. He then walked me to my room and made sure I knew how to use the key, explained the TV, gave me the internet information, and let me know when breakfast would be served. The house and decor are quite stunning! There was only me and another couple staying that night, so the house was very quiet. That was a nice pleasure for me. My room was LARGE and very comfortable. I slept well. The morning cook was there early and by 8:00 AM, breakfast was ready, and oh my, it was delicious. Pouched eggs, hand cut and I think pan fried potatoes, bacon, biscuits, frittata, and handmade apple muffins. Such a pleasant time relaxing and eating in this beautiful home."

Grand Galvez Resort, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel. Nice beach."

The 1890 Freeman House

10/10 Excellent

"The property is very well maintained, the hosts are exceptional, accommodations were perfect. Very quiet and peaceful and relaxing. It’s nice having something so comfortable to stay in, and it is quite close to the cruise ship terminals if that is of interest to you. Great restaurant within five minutes walk called Saltwater Grill. Highly recommended ."

Surf Motel and Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"The owners and the staff that work here are the absolute sweetest! I arrived early due to an overnight flight, and when I asked if they could store my luggage until check-in time, they let me check-in early! I was so grateful because I was exhausted. The room was clean and conveniently located right across the street from Porretto Beach. The air conditioning was a freak and kept me nice and cool during the humid days. The shower pressure was great! Loved that this property had a fridge and microwave in the unit. It’s an older motel and it could use some upgrades, but it was clean, comfortable, and suitable for my stay. The staff was wonderful here! I felt very welcomed and safe. Would definitely stay here again during a future trip to Galveston."
