The property was beautiful! The staff was very friendly. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay before our cruise. We will definitely be back!

This experience was amazing. Michael's hospitality was truly out of this world. I highly recommend The George Manor for your stay in galveston. The room was outstanding and the whole place had such ambiance.

Very secluded from busy Seawall. A nice garden with a cool breeze to relax in. A spacious room with excellent interior style. Expert staff with welcoming, thoughtful, and friendly interaction. Wonderful place to stay.

Everything was nice and clean. They were very nice and accommodating. The breakfast was excellent! Fruit tray, apple strudel, eggs, bacon, potatoes, sausage, toast and good coffee. They have a nice little bar with good wine and spirits. I'm a scotch guy and they had some of my favorites. Highly recommend for a couples get away.

The property was beautiful with the lovely, manicured lawns, the carved tree trunk, life-size chess game, gazebo, and cannon. We had fun taking pictures there. The co-owners are friendly and make you feel right at home and I liked the way in which they took the time to show us how the TV and the door lock operated. The breakfast was delicious and overall the location, parking, and comfortable room made for a great stay.

I loved the breakfast and staff and their hospitality Maintenance of the building for example the door for my room wasn’t easy to operate i had to use both my hands to simply open or close the door. No toothbrush and paste

Absolutely wonderful breakfast in a historical room! Love it!
-
Michael met us when we entered the beautiful property, took us to our suite and answered any questions we had. We enjoyed a great breakfast waiting for us the next morning and an engaging lovely conversation with Mr. George. The location is in the beautiful historic district. D is ideal for visiting Galveston. It is only a few blocks to the cruise port. We would definitely stay here again !

Felt like location was secure with the gate around the property and its proximity to the seawall and The Strand not far away A few of my bathroom towels weren’t clean

The George Manor is a beautifully restored Bed and Breakfast. It was a pleasure to get to know the owner and staff. Awesome people, with awesome stories! Very nice dining area with a parlor and full bar. Step back into the 20s, 30’s, and 40’s. It has a very historical feel. There were complimentary water, drinks, and snacks in the room. The bed in the White Room is excellent. There was a communal shower for the room we were in, but we did not share with any other guests during our stay. Treat yourself to the wonderful 5-Star worthy breakfast. If you are coming to Galveston for a cruise, The George Manor has a secure parking lot that guests can use at a reasonable cost. The owner drove us to the cruise terminal. It was very easy and stress free.

Breakfast
-
There is a live in chef onsite and he prepares your breakfast as you want it. He does a wonderful authentic English breakfast and will serve dinner and an authentic English afternoon tea if you reserve them. Nothing is perfect. The lighting in the suite was dim. We encountered roaches that could easily be corrected with solid pest control. There was still painting and renovation going on to the front of the manor and the lawn was in need of mowing. However, it has been very wet weather for several weeks so it’s understandable. None of this would keep us from returning again on our next trip to Galveston. We really enjoyed our stay at the George Manor.

Michael was great. Thanks for the weekend.

We loved our stay at the George Manor. Our room was very clean and spacious, the property is very well kept and Chef Michael and his wife Rosie are very kind and accommodating. He graciously gave us a tour of the property while sharing its history. The location was perfect and we thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast as well. We highly recommend it!
-
Excellent staff, chef, beds comfy, and grounds charming. We were treated like royalty. Food presentation, service we 1st floor has steps and my walker is large and it was difficult ult going in and out. Michael came and helped us but we were uncomfortable... it is notorious should not be his responsibility.
-
Rosie and Michael were unbelievable- Rosie made us feel at home immediately as we entered the Manor. The location was perfect for the area of Galveston that we were exploring. We enjoyed our visit - so much was because of the George Manor, their staff, and the porches with rocking chairs. We are so thankful we stayed there.
-
Very comfortable and staff (Miçhael) was extremely hospitable, friendly and easy to talk with. Food was super!! Bathroom water pressure was terrible, sink cold water faucet did not operate and shower pressure was terrible.
-
This is a unique bed and breakfast. I’d stay here again it’s close to great food and entertainment and the beach is short drive away! The breakfast is delicious and so quaint
