The Boardwalk Inn in Kemah is awesome! We enjoy the easy access to rides, arcades, and kid-friendly restaurants, plus the convenience of staying steps away from entertainment. Rooms with private balconies offer great views of the bay and plaza. Overall, it’s a fun, family-friendly choice for those wanting to be in the heart of the action.

I have wanted to stay at the Boardwalk Inn for 20 years, ever since I saw it for the first time during a trip to Kemah, and the hotel did not disappoint! My husband and I were extremely comfortable during our 2 night stay, the staff was very helpful and friendly, and the views were STUNNING! Plus it’s so much easier to enjoy the boardwalk when you’re able to easily go back and forth between your room and the amenities offered.
