Ladies,

Can anyone give me recommendations for affordable lodging in or around the Galveston, TX area? DH and I are looking to get away for a few days next month and would like to find an economical - read: cheap but safe! - hotel. We don't necessarily have to stay on Galveston Island, but I'm not familiar with the surrounding are. Can anyone offer suggestions? Thanks in advance!

I haven't been to Galveston in years, but the last time I was there we stayed at Moody Gardens. We got one of their weekend package deals and from what I remember it wasn't that expensive. I know that Moody Gardens has a great beach and other fun things to do. I'm sorry I can't give you more help. I can tell you that the Hotel Galvez, San Luis, Tremont House and Victorian are all pretty nice to very nice places to stay.

I hope you have a good time!

- Shop on the Strand
- Ride the Bolivar ferry (actually one of my favorite things!)
- Buy seafood down at the wharves and cook it fresh
- Moody Gardens
- Beach, obviously
