Great location
We were cruising, so having the room so close to a cruise port was fantastic. We were able to see the ships coming into port and were close to excellent restuarants and shopping. The room was very comfortable.

It’s our 2nd time at Harbor house, it’s a beautiful refurbished building. All the furnishing are of top quality. The staff are lovely and help. It’s in a great location for shopping and eating and we use it as our must stay before our cruise.

Luckily we are not first time cruisers. Because the gentleman at front desk check in would have had me in a state of uncertainty. The property is great!

Worst Customer Service in Fifteen Years
I stayed here during the offseason after New Years with my two sons. We went to NASA all day and were looking forward to exploring Galveston that night. The room definitely needed cleaning and fresh towels. It was not serviced all day when we returned. After an hour of waiting, as and of day approached, I asked the front desk if they could clean the room. I was told the staff had left already. They had marked the room as “occupied” when it wasn’t. I told him the facts above. At first he argued as if I was lying and it was clear he didn’t care, wasn’t apologetic, and wasn’t going to do anything to help the situation. I’d strongly suggest staying elsewhere unless you want to be treated like a nuisance and get a substandard room.

Good location for the cruise terminal, it’s walkable but not great with lots of luggage. The hotel had a bus pick up to terminal for $7 each person. Room was a bit worn but sufficient, bed was good, walls are thin so could be a bit noisy. Seafood restaurants and The Strand was nearby.

With what they charge for a room they shouldn’t be charging you $15 to park your car.
