The place is super nice. Very helpful and cheerful staff. Great food & menu. The concierge was not helpful, maybe I just showed up at a bad moment. We had to change plans when our sink stopped up, but staff got on the problem quickly. Impressive elevator service. The room was nice but not 5star nice. I feel like we way overpaid but options were few due to local events.

We stayed at Moody Gardens Oct 21-25. It was very quiet and staff were very friendly. The food was amazing. Only issue we had was getting ahold of room service to order the food. Would highly recommend for a family vacation.

Wheater was not great but the underground parking was nice to keep our bikes out of the rain and safe. Did not like the charge of $14.00, it should be complementary for guess.

Moody Gardens Hotel is a great place to stay in Galeston- location is perfect . The hotel offers free bikes with the trolley stopping at the hotel. The restaurant- we went in off season- was very accommodating. The food was fresh and delicious. Staff are very helpful and friendly. Lots of things to do -the pyramids have an aquarium, a rainforest, and science museum. Also a large swimming pool and game areas. We had a great stay at Moody Gardens Hotel.
