To start, it is a very nice, quaint inn. I like it a lot EXCEPT for the large number of stairs and no assistance with my luggage. A few years ago, that many stairs would just have been a challenge. Today, with arthritic hips, it is an obstacle, completely undoable to carry luggage up there. A bystander helped, but if not, I reckon I would have had to sleep out on the sidewalk next to my luggage! (No, I really would not have). I feel the issue was there just was no staff to haul the luggage. But honestly, if you have good hips (or knees) and are good with the stairs, it is a great little place for its price. Definitely not fancy, but very authentic island life. Note also, these islands frequently lose electricity. If you are not willing to rough it, stay at a resort that has generators. No fault of the Inn about the electricity, it just happens in the islands. I am going to post. Pics of all the stairs and inclines it took to get to my room.

Our room wasn’t ready when we arrived. We waited 2 hours, after our checking time, to get in our room.
The rooms are dated but clean
Our room was on the second floor, which was 72 stone steps up the hill, with luggage. So, if you’re not in good shape, I don’t recommend this place
There us a lot of beautiful vegetation around the hotel but that also meant lots of mosquitos Bring your insect repellent if you want to be outside

I stayed here with one of my best friends, and my mother and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I liked the security of the fact that they have a main gate that they lock after hours so random people aren’t coming in. The only downside to this hotel and why I only ranked it. Four stars out of five is that the rooms were very small and the water pressure isn’t the greatest but we didn’t mind because we just slept there and the rest of the time we were sightseeing! I do wanna make a note that due to it being an island and having to reserve their electricity, the power does go out for a couple hours during the day at this hotel and certain areas (not everywhere on the island), so just make sure that you have everything charged. I also wanted to say the parking is very narrow due to The Streets being very narrow so make sure when you park you’re able to get out very easily. It was a cute little hotel for a great price And it was very close (walking distance) to some Little shopping markets, and food. When we go back next year, this is definitely a place we would come back to.

The room was very simple, but for me it was just a place to catch up on some work and sleep. Rooms are scattered across buildings, like other hotels nearby, because the hotel climbs a steep hill. The amenities were great. I certainly enjoyed the pristine pool after walking around in the blazing sun!

Location was absolutely key! While the hotel is a bit older, it still offers a nice stay. There was a water pipe issue, but it was out of their control, and they thoughtfully provided water for guests. Remember, it's an island, and sometimes things happen! The downfall is, there are lots of stairs but it also makes for a better view 😉 #Location #Hotel #Island #View

The Galleon House is so quaint and authentic, that we wouldn’t have stayed anywhere else! It is definitely a hike up a hill of steps, which fits into the location perfectly. The room was clean with a great balcony, air conditioning, adequate amenities for an island getaway, perfect options for continental breakfast with nice strong coffee, a refreshing pool, beautiful flora with lizards and a kittie mascot welcoming us each morning, a great central location, and very helpful, wonderful staff. Our favorite aspects of the room included a comfortable bed and pillows and a fantastic shower. We found the tile comfortable and water flow so refreshing and superior to many large chain establishments. This gem is truly an island experience that we will cherish!

Air conditioning was great and shower was always hot. It’s not your luxury hotel experience but for the location in town and the price it’s a phenomenal choice for a vacation on St Thomas. Staff was incredibly nice and it was nice they provide pool and beach towels. The included breakfast isn’t very substantial and the only microwave is in the common area. Those are the only things you should be aware of. Fantastic property. Parking can be difficult on certain days but it seems everybody on the island parks wherever they please. You don’t have designated spots and are competing with locals for spots sometimes. I parked illegally a few times and nobody cared so just be ready for that.

Clean room that is in need of someTLC. The Pool is beautiful and so is the view from the patio where continental breakfast is available. The staff is very helpful. AC works great when there is not a power outage, which happens about 2 hours per day. Shower worked and there is bar soap and shampoo along with towels. The property feels safe, with a gate that is locked 8-8pm. Location is good if you want to be downtown and walk to the many jewelry and gift shops. Not sure if there is parking at the hotel because our car rental fell through due to our flight arriving late (they do not hold car reservations at the airport rental agencies) but you can get a taxi to take you anywhere. Taxis cost a lot. Bring lots of cash because that’s all they take!

For what we paid, it was fine. Room was clean and had a great view. Breakfast was ok, not stupendous. Luckily, they had umbrellas - to rent! $5! - to get to dinner. The pool was nice. However, no one mentioned the steps. This hotel is carved out of old structures that climb up the hill - and you must too! In a trip up to the lobby, then out to lunch and back to our room and then the pool and back and finally to dinner, we had climbed the equivalent of an 18-story building! (Not counting the two steps down into our shower...) (Ah, but we could see St. Croix from our balcony!!)

Everyone was very nice and helpful.

This B&B is in the hills so expect a lot of stairs (great daily workout). Parking was adequate! Loved our room and balcony overlooking the Charlotte Amalie harbor.

I booked this property last minute when I decided to extend my stay. I was originally staying at Bunker Hill which is right next door with a connecting hallway between them. The property was beautiful, the staff was very friendly, and the rooms were clean. My only complaint is that during my stay the water was very low pressure/completely out in my room so I had to use the shared bathroom. In my opinion, I feel like I shouldn’t have had to pay for a room with a private bathroom if I still had to use a community bathroom my whole stay, but that’s okay. Also, this didn’t concern me but I know it concerned some other guests, the stairs to enter this hotel goes out to the main road so basically anyone can just walk onto the property with no type of security or door to get through. But as a solo female traveler, I had no issues in my 2 day stay. If the connecting gate is unlocked, I suggest you go to Bunker Hill hotel for dinner, the service and food is amazing. Overall, this was a good place for me as someone who would rather save on money than have luxuries.
