1 Harbor House Hotel & Marina at Pier 21

We really liked this hotel. The location on the shipping channel at Pier 21 was perfect with lots of interesting things and restaurants within walking distance. Parking was easily accessible and very reasonably priced.
I will say that it felt more like an adult hotel rather than a family hotel, which we liked. If the beach is your thing, you might prefer to be on the Gulf side of town, but this location serves as a perfect base to explore the charm and rich history of Galveston.
If you judged a hotel by the size of its lobby, this hotel would rate one star, but lobbies are just wasted space used to impress. This lobby got the job done perfectly; they even allowed us to tuck our two electric bicycles under the stairs.
Space was provided where you wanted it, in the rooms. We had a spacious room with two queen beds, a long desk, two lounging chairs, and plenty of space to spread out. The rooms were impeccably clean. The bathroom was small but well layed out with a roomy shower stall rather than a cramped tub.
This is my first time in Galveston, but I will be back, and we will be staying at the Harbor House Hotel.
2 The Tremont House

My second time coming and by far the best place to stay in the Galveston. The hotel was super clean and everyone was so kind and welcoming. Beds are very comfortable and the rooms are big. I highly recommend this Hotel. Great walking distance to everything on the Strand. I will be back. We had a wonderful weekend!
3 Domum de Vencé

We just did a little staycation from our home in Houston and we loved our stay here. For those of you not sure what you’re getting, it is a large house with code-access rooms. It’s basically like a mini apartment building. It’s a bedroom and a bathroom. Very well done, quality construction. Extremely clean room, bed was very comfortable and cozy. You can tell the owner of the building really cares to make it a good experience. Safe area, GREAT location to the strand (close but away from all the noise) and not far from the sea wall either. Thank you Domum de Vencè!
4 Schaefer Haus

This gorgeous mansion was our overall best choice for our spring break vacation. The staff really went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Breakfast was excellent (quiche, biscuits & sausage gravy, fruit and yogurt cups, pastries) with complimentary drinks on the veranda in the evening. A real jewel of a place!
