The Mansion on 17th

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel"

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Galveston Beach

8/10 Good

"Place was clean with nice views. The pool and swim up bar was clutch. Just one issue with staff on arrival they stated their internet was down and couldn’t give us our room. They only offered a refund but when I pushed back and stated I didn’t want a refund because we were from out of town they then checked us in. Other than that the food at the on site restaurant was good . Comfortable stay"

Hotel Lucine

10/10 Excellent

"Had a wonderful stay at Hotel Lucine! The hotel and amenities were clean, well-maintained, and very relaxing. The staff were friendly, helpful, and welcoming throughout our stay. Such a nice place to unwind and enjoy Galveston. Would definitely stay here again! 🤍✨"

The Mariner

8/10 Good

"Just a room, but clean and comfortable. It's all we needed for one night and was convenient. Served our purpose well at a reasonable rate."

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."

Quiet Cottage 5 minutes to Beach or Strand, Fenced yard and off street parking.

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great place to vacation.The house is clean and spacious. It’s also Situated close to everything."

Hidden Retreat E – Tucked-Away Gem

10/10 Excellent

"The apartment was conveniently located near seawall blvd. It was nice and clean, had a washer and dryer, a well stocked kitchen, and full size fridge. The only down falls were the parking situation (not much parking near the stairs behind the gas station), and there weren’t any curtains so the lights from the gas station shined in our bedrooms at night. Overall we did enjoy our stay and it was well worth the price!"
