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.

Nice Historical B&B
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.

Beautiful and spacious!
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.

Check-in is at 3:00 and we arrived at 11:00 AM just hoping to go through the check-in process but we were able to pay for the room, drop our bags off and get the key so this saved us a lot of time. The host is great and provided an excellent breakfast and service!

The best thing about Carr Mansion is the hostess. She is charming and accommodating. The house needs a deep cleaning and painting in some places though. The carriage house and backyard are not appealing, so stick to the main house. The breakfast was simple but good.

1800s Charm
The house is from the late 1800s so you're staying in a piece of history. Loved that. Breakfast was delicious. We stayed in the Honeymoon room, which has a king size bed. It was roomy and quaint. The bed is super high but they provide steps to climb on (I'm short so I did use them!) AC works great. Noise from outside might be an issue for very light sleepers. There was an alarm clock on the nightstand that went off in the middle of the night. I should have mentioned it to the hostess but failed to do so. That should be removed (cell phone apps render it completely unnecessary).

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.
