The Tremont House, Galveston, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel
4.6/5101 Reviews
Loved the location. Hotel was very nice and most of the front desk people were very accommodating. The lady who held luggage until we checked out was so very nice and funny. The rooms were very nice for an older hotel. The restaurant was a complete dud. Breakfast was overpriced and appeared as if it were heated up in microwave. No refills on coffee. Staff standing around and showing no interest in people there. Felt we could have gone down the street and had a better meal for much less.

DoubleTree by Hilton Galveston Beach
3.5/5101 Reviews
Another stay 1/19-1/12 2023. Check in staff on the 19th was just outstanding. Very friendly and helped us even get in a little early. Room was good, clean but shows so ware. View was outstanding and bed were very comfortable. The longboards by the pool needs some work. Order takeout waited a 1/2 hour was Then told they were only charging me half for on item because the were out of flat bread. So they only have a 1/2 flat because that is all they had left. Not sure why they would not tell you when you ordered. So two orders became just a 1/2 flat bread I just asked them to void the whole order which was not a easy task. I will say the staff was friendly thur the process. The night folks at the desk need a lot of help. Do not speak when you enter to lobby, matter of fact they do not even look up from whatever it is the two of them were doing on the computer. No free coffee in this hotel unless you have you own cup then they will fill it. Seem weird ever hotel has free coffee anymore. Had a lot of problems with billing when we checked out. They said I still owed 30 some dollars for a pre-paid room. I ended up calling Hilton Honors but after 20 minutes at two different folks was told it would be 72 hours and I still have not heard anything. The nice lady at check out worked hard to figure it out and I assume it is but have not been able to check out my CC statement yet. The manager she called on duty was no help he was rude and just left her hanging to figure it out. AGAIN SHE WAS GREAT the manager and Hilton Honors not so much.
Grand Galvez Resort, Autograph Collection
3.9/5102 Reviews
We haven’t been to The Galvez in over a year. We used to stay at least two weekends a month. The Mitchell family has sold the Galvez and it is NOT the same at all! If you haven’t been in awhile you are in for a shock! I will start with the positive of the new owners “remodel “. The food is much better and I like they took out the tub in the bathroom and made a bigger shower. Now for the not so positive. They took out the beautiful front doors and put in a cheap revolving door. They painted the outside of the hotel a Pepto-Bismol pink with huge black and white window coverings on the front of the hotel. Then you walk inside, to what I am guessing they were trying to achieve a swanky something. They have put in an ultra modern guest registration desk, to which we waited for 2 1/2 hours after check in time for our room! They removed the large check in area of old and put in a coffee bar that is open from6:30am and 1:00pm. They added a bar to the left with huge red chandeliers and playing Sinatra. The hallway has huge gold bells with Chrystal chandeliers underneath them. I thought it was a decoration for Christmas but it wasn’t. The opposite hall has white chandeliers with red covers with black and white checked flooring. Getting off the elevator to your room and you are blasted with the most god awful wall coverings, a floral jungle with owls and monkeys and a blue carpet! Then you enter your room which has the same wall coverings on one wall and mirrors on the entire wall behind the bed. The ceiling is painted a light blue and the furnishings are white, cheap and chintzy. The carpet is blue and white square with white specks on the blue part. The hotel now looks as if someone tried to make it a cheap hotel somewhere in the Bahamas with maybe a hit of I’ll repute! The Galvez is no longer the eloquent, glamours, classy hotel of distinction. The name has now been changed to the Grand Galvez, which this remodel did not come close to “grand”.
Homewood Suites by Hilton Galveston
3.9/5100 Reviews
The hotel is clean, modern, and comfortable. That's not such a hard thing to find these days if you know what to look for when searching for a hotel. It's having an excellent hotel staff running the place that is so hard to find. Luis who works the front desk really went above and beyond to assist us during our stay. On top of being friendly and helping us find a good place to eat during our stay in Galveston. I needed a room with a walk-in shower, but unfortunately the one we got was a regular old tub. I spoke with Luis and he went looking in every single room they had available trying to find me one. Unfortunately all the rooms they had left were ones with a tub, so I didn't get my room with a shower in the end. But that's not something I can hold against him or the hotel. I booked the room only hours before arriving and I couldn't expect him to find me something that simply isn't available. It's the effort he put in that left me with such a positive impression of this hotel. I highly recommend staying at Homestead Suites if you're ever in Galveston. You'll be well taken care of if you do.
