Wyndham Tremont House, Galveston, TX - Reviews and Hotel Information

Located in the historic Strand District of downtown Galveston, the Tremont House is a wonderful tribute to the city's Victorian age past. The original Tremont House dates back to 1839, when it was opened under the flag of the Republic of Texas. Many icons have passed through it's doors over the years, including a number of U.S. presidents, General Sam Houston, and after the terrible 1900 Galveston Hurricane, Red Cross founder Clara Barton used it as a shelter. The present structure was opened in 1985, recreating the magnificient past the hotel has had. The hotel has a great appearance about it, both inside and out. From the outside, it gives the feeling of a centuries old European hotel. And upon entering the lobby, you notice the lovely use of white decor all around, with the partially open roof that lets in sunlight and allows for a very natural illumination. Rooms are spectacular and spacious, with an excellent mix of Victorian decor and modern amenities. The fine dining restaurant here serves some of the best seafood on the island. And some great views of the city can be seen from the viewing deck located atop the hotel. Staff is very courteous, and very helpful in any recommendations or information that you may need. The one issue that the hotel has is parking, in which the hotel only offers valet. But if you do not wish to keep your car with them, there are several lots within walking distance for a minimal charge.

Although not the original building, the Tremont House does have a long history on the island, and the property's look and feel give it a character all to it's own amongst hotels on the island.
