We appreciate hearing from all of the former guests who wrote to ask how we survived Hurricane Ike. We're alive and well, have taken care of what minor damage did occur, and are busy serving the needs of first responders and Galvestonians who need a temporary home. We look forward to having you back soon!

· A Family Hotel with a View of the Gulf of Mexico
Why would you stay in a hotel room in Galveston without a view of the beach? The Commodore on the Beach has 92 rooms, all with beachfront views – no other hotel offers the unbeatable combination of family-friendly rates AND a beachfront location.

At the Commodore, you’ll wake up each morning to a spectacular view of the Galveston beach and the Gulf of Mexico. Sip coffee on your own private balcony overlooking Galveston Island's famous Seawall. Take a dip in our sparkling pool, where the spectacular new fountain will refresh your spirit. Stroll the beach for a shell or two. Bike through Galveston's historic neighborhoods nearby.

· Centrally Located Hotel on the Beachfront
The Commodore on the Beach is in the heart of Galveston Island's ambience, right on the waterfront at 37th and Seawall Boulevard (Longitude 95 degrees West, Latitude 29.2 degrees North). That beachfront corner is the Island's midsection – to the east, Stewart Beach and Galveston's restored architectural treasures and museums; an equal distance to the west are the world-class attractions of Moody Gardens, Schlitterbahn and the Lone Star Flight Museum. The Cruise Ship Terminal, Strand Historical District and the Postoffice Street art galleries are even closer. It's as if the Commodore's builders said, "OK, here are all the fun things to do on Galveston Island, now where can we put a hotel to be closest to all of it?"

· Near Seawall Restaurants
Of course, they couldn't have known about the food. Today, The Commodore on the Beach finds itself surrounded by the great restaurants that make Galveston so delicious. Gaido's, Casey's, Joe's Crab Shack, The Rainforest Café, Landry's and Salsa's Seaside Cantina are within walking distance, and more are on the way.

Vacationers who choose The Commodore know from the moment of check-in that we want them to have fond memories of their visit to Galveston. The staff is happy to share our local knowledge - from the best bike rental deal to the historic homes that are must-sees.
