Hotels near Galveston Island Railroad Museum

I was on a girlfriends weekend to run the Diva Half Marathon. This hotel was one block away from the start line. It was perfect. We were able to walk from our hotel to the strand to all the shops and restaurants. Our room was plenty big for all three of us.

Our usual hotel was unavailable so we decided to stay at the Harbor House. We truly enjoyed this charming hidden gem located right on the Pier. Our views were wonderful, the room was beautifully decorated in a clean minimalist design which was very modern and comfortable. The hotel has just been renovated and the new design is very artistic. The staff were very friendly and accommodating.

Linda is a gracious host. Her breakfast was fabulous

Compared to every other economical inn we have stayed at in Galveston, this is by far the nicest. And we have stayed in MANY motels. I am NOT going to compare this property to higher priced luxury hotels -- not fair! We have enjoyed those more-luxurious hotels, but in the budget type arena, La Quinta at 1402 Seawall was VERY NICE. Parking was easy, right in front of our room. Room was immaculate--appeared freshly painted. Furniture was new or in great shape (dresser drawers rolled out smoothly, for example) . Full length mirror, very comfortable bed with clean crisp sheets, desk & chair very convenient, good lighting in bathroom, big vanity, excellent black-out curtains--generous enough to overlap, temperature easy to control, very adequate closet with wooden hangars, nice bedside lighting, big screen tv, efficient little fridge -- just some of the things that would bring us back to this place. Oh! And best of all no charge for our little dog! Now THAT is cool! Really liked this place.

we had the best bartenders (at the swim-up bar and inside the lobby) and the shuttle service was delightful. super close to the beaches and pleasure pier (<5 minute walk).

They let me check in a couple hours early. Room was nice, air conditioning was super cold. I liked my stay. I didn't use the on property restaurant.

I loved my hotel sooo much. When you first drive up it sticks out, it's RED. When I came into the lobby the décor is comfy yet elegant and modern. The staff was really nice, I was there for 5 days and never encountered a bad employee. The room had two double queen beds that are just so comfortable with amazing bedding. There were two comforters; one light and one so heavy it was easy to fall asleep. The room had a huge desk with lots of drawers and amenities such as a refrigerator, (the microwave was in the lobby), small chair with table, ironing board, iron, cute little coffee maker (or tea maker either supplies were there), ice bucket and a complimentary bottle of water replaced daily. The dining room was nice as well and had a small bar. I'm not sure when the hotel was built but everything looks super clean and updated. The bathroom has a cute beach theme. The gym was also very nice, it had three treadmills and three ellipticals and an area for lifting weights.

This hotel has recently been updated. It is squeaky clean, and the indoor pool and hot tub were fabulous. The free breakfast included fresh fruit and yogurt, eggs, sausage, potatoes, waffles, toast, muffins, cereals, juices, etc. Coffee and tea always available in the lobby 24/7. Right across from the beach and Pleasure Pier with a balcony and many restaurants within walking distance. Staff was very pleasant. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic place to stay. Great location. Bars, restaurants all within walking distance, ocean view and great price. Plenty of parking.
