Wonderful

The room was lovely, and the bed was comfortable. Our hostess, Joellen, was friendly and courteous. She makes a mean waffle! Since we were the only guests that evening, we had a lovely conversation with her. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone coming to Galveston.
We arrived for check-in and were greeted by the manager. She showed us the details of the room like the airco/heater. Our room was clean, beautiful, charming, and filled with antiques. It was like staying at a wealthy uncle and aunt's house. I thought a lot about the history of the house and wondered who might have been to parties there a hundred years ago. The neighborhood was quiet, and pretty close to the Strand and the beach. We'd definitely stay there again.
Had a fantastic stay! Will definitely make this a regular visit. The breakfast was phenomenal and the conversation and comraderie we built with Joey was more than we could have imagined.
Our stay at Carr Mansion was such a great getaway for my husband and I. The property was lovely and unique, our room comfortable and with plenty of space to relax. The owner was attentive and personable, and the breakfast she served was fantastic. We would definitely stay here again!
This was a great stay! Lovely property! The owner was extremely accommodating and beyond friendly! Beautiful room and house. And excellent breakfasts! Highly recommended!
Amazing B&B. The hostess has thought of every tiny detail. Gorgeous old home with tons of character, friendly and thoughtful hostess, central location… the positives go on and on.
Great Location and friendly service. There was a lack of shelf and drawer space for clothes and the water pressure in the shower was low.

I wanted to stay in this historic property because it was involved in the 1900 hurricane and the grade raising of Galveston Island following the terrible storm.
Such a beautiful house! We had a great stay at the house in the Grocer's Room. We were greeted upon check in with a beverage and they had alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks available to us.
It was a nice walk to the shore. Breakfast was amazing.
One of the most memorable properties I've every stayed at! Each room is unique and has its own charm. The caretakers are super friendly and helped resettle me after I booking mistake I made. I'm looking forward to my next visit soon!
Beautiful spacious and inviting classic house! Our hostess was outstanding, very friendly and accommodating.
The room we stayed in was “The Preacher” and it was outstanding. Very large, comfortable with an incredible bed and a 7 foot claw foot soaking tub. Breakfast was delicious! Belgian waffles with fresh fruit, juice and coffee.
Very sweet. Great cinnamon rolls, historical. Joelyn is very accomodating and made us feel welcome. We loved the personal touch. The porch balcony overlooking the garden was a delghtful interlude from the stress of urban living.
