Texas Hotels with Bar from CA $194

"The poolside was nice with an awesome view, the food and the evening dinner was also amazing. Top service for the price"

"Can't regulate the heating A/C system. The room was too cold upon arrival. The front desk called maintenance to adjust the room temperature. After maintenance came, the room was still too cold. Called maintenance again. After maintenance came a second time, the room was still too cold. I turned off the A/C system in order to have the room at a comfortable temperature. This was the only complaint I have. Everything else was five stars."

"The main reason I selected the Holiday Inn Express was because it had a Beach view room available. I selected it, I paid for it upfront, at check-in I again requested the beach view I had paid for only to be given a room with an large open field with just a partial view of the beach. I again approached the hotel front desk and requested a room with a beach view and was only offered a room with less of a beach view than the one I had already been given. No thanks to the Holiday Inn Express Galveston Beach for ruining my wife and I 9th Anniversary weekend. "

"Very expensive breakfast, hotel is ok and the location is good, but it needs some update."

"The staff is very nice! Very helpful! "

"The property was awesome, but the construction going on across the highway was awful, but that is not the hotel’s fault."

"Clean room, nice staff, good coffee bar, great pool bar and food truck. Great beach access and clean. Walking distance to everything. "

"I love old things, so The Menger Hotel has been on my list forever. And yes—it’s beautiful. But she comes with quirks. Valet was friendly, but no one mentioned you have to respond to a random, non-local text and enter payment info to get your car back. So when we’re trying to leave for dinner? Delay. Because my fiancé doesn’t click mystery links (as one shouldn’t). You can charge it to your room—would’ve been great to know upfront. Walking in? Stunning. Antique everything, historic photos, total time capsule vibes. Then you hit the front desk… and the energy drops. Check-in was awkward, they couldn’t find our reservation (it was there), and the vibe was very “this is your fault somehow.” Not rude, just not welcoming. Room 3067: clean, decent size, nothing special. Bed was comfortable. Partial courtyard view, partial rooftop. Fine. Now the “old hotel” realities: Room was muggy, even with AC low Bathroom is tight (my 6’1” fiancé struggled) Shower is basic and takes forever Flush a nearby toilet? Enjoy your surprise ice bath A few extras: Dirty plate in the hallway for over a day One lamp didn’t work Pool location remains a mystery The bar is cool, service is… consistent with the rest of the hotel (present, not warm). Location is right in the tourist area—convenient but busier than we prefer. Final take: The Menger Hotel is gorgeous and worth experiencing if you love historic hotels. Just don’t expect modern comfort or standout service."

"Proximity to the to everything. Will return in the future."
