Top Pelican Island Hotel Reviews

Galveston Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Good room for the night before a cruise nice to have a balcony to get some fresh air :)"

Hyatt Select Galveston - Beachfront

8/10 Good

"It was good. Hallways could have been better vacuumed. Was directed originally to room 318, but the bed on the left in the room smelled extremely musty and had a huge sink in the middle and I mentioned the problem to the staff and they immediately fixed the problem by changing me to another room that was fine. But the bed in 318 has to be replaced. Otherwise the staff was nice. The location was great. And breakfast was good."

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Galveston Beach

10/10 Excellent

"We love going to the Doubletree. The staff is always very friendly and helpful. We love the pool and the bar out front across the sea wall has the best mixed drinks on the seawall. I would highly recommend the Doubletree. Do anyone wanting to stay on the seawall excellent location and friendly staff and great accommodations."

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Galveston West-Seawall by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"They had construction going on but very friendly staff, absolutely GREAT view from the balcony. Did have free breakfast but did not eat.had few concerns but manager on duty was very professional about handling it and getting it squared away."
