We had an amazing overnight stay before our cruise. The location is beautiful, historical, and not your usual grand scale hotel or condo stay. It was quiet, the room was spacious and I love a good themed room. It reminded me of our pre-wedding stay at a Detroit historical home turned into a stay. It is easy in and out. We had privacy and were able to get ready for our travels the next day. It was clean and had all the needed supplies like clean drinking water, ice machine and a keurig with lots of coffee pod options. My only complaint is the some of the doors like our bathroom door could benefit from a little WD-40 because it was sooo loud and squeaky. But otherwise it was closed to our port for walking and served its purpose and was perfect! Thank you to Shannon we are so appreciative!

Great place for an Anniversary trip!

Beautiful historic home in Galveston turned into a hotel with 6 rooms. We stayed in the Paris room for 4 nights. It was close enough to walk to shopping and restaurants on the Strand and the pier. Short drive or trolley ride to the Seawall. The house is filled with antiques and on a very quiet street. We absolutely loved our trip.

An Experience

The 1890 Freeman house is definitely a place you want to stay. So much history you can feel just walking in. Didn’t experience any negative vibes, just felt like home and slept great. I Will be returning, that's for sure.

Complaint addressed immediately.

The first night we found the bed had a big dip in the center. We were moved to another room and it was much better.

This is just a wonderful place to stay! Quiet and relaxing! It was so great to sit on the porch in the evening with a glass of wine. We will come back.

Absolutely enchanting! Staying at the 1890 Freeman house was like stepping back in time, but with all the modern comforts. ✨ The architecture is stunning, and the entire place was sparkling clean and impeccably organized. I especially adored the coffee station – a perfect way to start a peaceful morning on a quiet street. The bed was incredibly comfy, and I could tell every detail was thoughtfully curated, right down to the gorgeous clawfoot tub in the bathroom! The water pressure was fantastic, too. This stay was a dream come true, and I'm already planning my next visit.

My mom and I were going on a cruise and spent the night in Galveston. We chose The 1890 Freeman House because it looked beautiful and unique. We were not disappointed! The house is beautiful. It's filled with antiques that keep the charm of an old Victorian House, but it still has all of the modern conveniences (fast Wifi, televisions in the room, fully equipped kitchen, etc.). The owner is not on property but great at communication. She emailed and texted while we were there to make sure that everything was going smoothly. Check in and check out was super simple. Besides, the house being beautiful, the location was perfect! It's in a neighborhood full of historic Victorian houses, and it's walking distance to: downtown, the Strand district, and the seawall. I would definitely stay there again!
