nlt46 Posted March 25, 2011 #1 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Anybody able to report good hotel deals for the end of April? I can't find anything in Galveston under $100. Can't do Priceline because I need 2 queen size beds for 2 adults and 2 kids. I qualify for AARP and AAA. They don't have to have cruise parking as I'm going to park at the Lighthouse Parking. Also, it doesn't have to be on the water, just somewhat near it. Thanks. Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaggirl Posted March 26, 2011 #2 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I gave up on Galveston and got a hotel in Texas City, just north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisekwazee Posted March 27, 2011 #4 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Try Choice Hotels. I got a good deal for October, maybe you can get one for April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nlt46 Posted March 27, 2011 Author #5 Share Posted March 27, 2011 The SpringHill Suites for $84 looks like the best price in Galveston. Thanks for the help. Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

munchkin4 Posted March 29, 2011 #7 Share Posted March 29, 2011 We are staying at the Best Western Beachfront for $53 per night, Monday thru Wednesday the second week in April. This is with my AARP discount. I did book directly through Best Western Website to get this price and from the reviews I read, it has a decent comp breakfast which includes waffles. I also called and there is a mini-fridge in each room. Now....weekend will probably be higher....but worth a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeano222 Posted April 3, 2011 #8 Share Posted April 3, 2011 I just used Hotwire and got La Quinta Seawall for 59.00 plus tax for 4/29/11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfpccc Posted April 3, 2011 #9 Share Posted April 3, 2011 You can get a decent price for hotels during the week, but another story for the weekends. This time of year most of the hotels require a 2 night minimum stay and seems like the rates double. Keep checking for last minute deals--if several rooms still available, some will at least cancel the 2 night minimum. The hotel that we had used in Jan & Feb for $75/Sat night stay is now $154 with 2 night min. Like I mentioned previously, the best deal I could find for 4/17/11 was the Springhill Suites AAA rate of $84. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I mentioned before, you can get good deals during the week (the above prices are for a Sun night). The majority of cruisers need Sat. night & those prices are very high. I'm with you, wished I could get prices like that for 04/16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeano222 Posted April 4, 2011 #12 Share Posted April 4, 2011 sorry golfpccc, the post before mine said you were looking for 4/17/11 not 4/16/11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfpccc Posted April 4, 2011 #13 Share Posted April 4, 2011 sorry golfpccc, the post before mine said you were looking for 4/17/11 not 4/16/11. You are correct--sorry about that--I meant to say the best deal I could find for 4/16 was the SpringHill Suites at $84. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garagesalegran Posted April 22, 2011 #14 Share Posted April 22, 2011 We stayed at the Springhill Suites in Clear Lake/Webster and it was the best hotel!!!!!! Immaculate, has a bar, free breakfast, close to restaurants and about 25 to Galveston cruise terminal. Our stay was for Conquest cruise in March. You won't regret it if you chose this hotel.
