  • The historic bar was really nice. The room was great.
  • Our room had a view of a run down building.

“The room was fantastic with great beds and two sofa's. The bathroom was exceptional. The breakfast from the restaurant was very good. Our favorite part was the Historic bar in the lounge. It was built in 1870.”

  • Decor, comfortable bed, very quiet and the location.
  • Staff is unfriendly.

“We loved the hotel overall. We checked in and were disappointed that there wasn't two queens available. So, we were stuck with one queen bed for the four of us. The staff was rude about it and do not seem to care if you are frustrated. Definitely not one of those hotels where they are bending over backwards to make sure the customer is happy. We did get a roll-away for my kids. We were told if we wanted two queens, we did have to come down every morning and ask if there was one available. Didn't want to bother with packing & unpacking or with communicating with their staff again, so we just took what we got. The room was exceptional, except very cold. I think the thermometer was broken and we could only turn the air on and off, not set the temperature. Bed was super-comfy and we loved the look and feel the entire hotel had. Valet guys were awesome and there is free parking by the curb between certain hours. Hotel was very clean, looked very nice and was well kept. The rooftop patio was great too and has a view of the bayside. We were very glad once we got there that we did not book a room on the sea wall side of the island which was very noisy, had lots of traffic and lots of party-goers. This location was walking distance to all of the cute shops of downtown, and the water on the bayside was only 1 block away. We loved being near the big boats. Seemed like more of a family-friendly, low key area. I would definitely stay here again, just limit your interaction with the staff at the front desk.”

  • Loved the hardwood floors and high ceilings in guest rooms.
  • Only valet parking that cost $12.99 a night. No other close, safe places to park.

  • Old historic building, quaint & charming, full of ambiance - grand piano greeted us in lobby.
  • Hair in the coffee maker; trolley drops off at beach with no return.

“I have stayed at this hotel only once before and have been very pleased both times. The rooms are beautiful - my children thought they were the most wonderful places to stay - they ohh and aweded the whole time. Beautiful hardwood floors and comfortable beds - but they liked the towel warmer the best.”

“The one small window in our room looked onto an interior dining area. It was not within walking distance to the beach, and there was no pool. The furnishings were sparse.”

  • Chamber music in lobby in the evening is excellent.
  • I have no complaints! Charming hotel - impressive service!

“Hotel is super. The staff is professional. The room is top quality. The Restaurant food was good and priced reasonably. The reason that I gave the restaurant a "nine" is that the coffee was only warm. A clean cut young man was the server and he was just learning the business, I believe. He was hard to find when I needed him. The cashier brought hot coffee with a big Texas smile. I will go again to the restaurant when I return to this fine Hotel for Christmas on the Strand.”

  • Beautiful felt safe.
  • Hidden charges, ok service.

“Very pretty hotel. However, they charged additional for every amenity. Parking, breakfast, internet, premium channels, and local calls were all additional. Also I had to call four times for an in room refrigerator to be delivered. Hotel staff members were distant with an edge of irritation when I expressed frustration that my perishables were spoiling. I was traveling with a small child and wanted to store milk. Also the hotel states that it is blocks from the beach with frequent trolley service to the beach. The trolley comes infrequently and it is miles from the beach. Further more you would expect a pool or fitness center in a nicer hotel. This hotel had neither. The pros were that it is pretty, clean, felt safe and it is in a charming area of Galveston. Shopping, cute restaurants, and small art galleries are within walking distance. Overall not the best value, but it was comfortable.”
