Top Galveston History Museum Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Galveston Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff"

Grand Galvez Resort, Autograph Collection

8/10 Good

"There was no reading chair in a large king bed room. Only a ridiculous desk chair"

Wingate by Wyndham Galveston Beachfront at the Seawall

8/10 Good

"Staff was nice Recently updated and clean Breakfast was very minimal"

The George Manor

10/10 Excellent

"A beautiful historical property. We arrive several hours early due to our travel plans, and they were very accommodating and got our room ready first, so we could check in early. The breakfast was wonderful. The property was amazing. The units are extremely spacious, air conditioning was fantastic (and really needed with the outdoor temperatures, quiet property. Workmanship on the refurbished bathroom was subpar and the water pressure in our shower in our unit was very low. Other than those couple of minor items, it was a fabulous stay."

Gaido's Seaside Inn

10/10 Excellent

"It is an old hotel but has been updated and the rooms are very clean. Beds are very comfortable and rooms were nice and cold!! (It's very hot out!!). Breakfast was good every morning. Staff was very nice and helpful. Swimming pool and hot tub worked well and was clean as could be with all the people and smoking area in pool/bar. Smoking area right outside your rooms is a major plus for this smoker. Two restaurants attached to hotel with good food and drinks. Small coffee pot and coffee in room, mini fridge and microwave. We stayed in the family room - plenty of room except only 1 bathroom, but toilet and shower behind closed door and vanity/sink separate. Beach was right across the street, and we just walked over to it; rented chairs and umbrella - life was good. I would definitely stay here again."

The 1890 Freeman House

10/10 Excellent

"It was a great experience. We really loved the property and atmosphere. We definitely would recommend this place to others."

Hotel Lucine

10/10 Excellent

"I truly appreciated the cleanliness of the room and the charming, classic ambiance it exuded; it was quite lovely. Additionally, the pool offered a delightful spot for relaxation, and the breakfast was not only beautifully presented but also delicious."
