Star Drug has long been a favorite place to grab a good breakfast before getting on a ship to cruise. Found out that there were two lofts to rent upstairs and had to try it out. Location, location, location. Everything that doesn’t include sand is within a short walk from the loft. Bars, dining and shopping are all just a short troll away.

Hospitality, property manager, cleanliness, and location were all 10/10. Easy access to restaurants and the arts district, with multiple parking options, and it’s fully walkable.

Lovely, convenient, pleasant host. We had a great time. 26 stairs to the front door so be mindful if you have mobility issues.

This place is very nice. It is beautiful and clean and charming. It has a great location to great botique shopping, restaurants and bars. Only drawback is that the bed is located right by the windows and there is a LOT of activity at night in this area. You can hear everything all night. If you are a light sleeper, you may be kept awake.

Typically, we stay annually at The Tremont House but since the recent renovations, we were not impressed and the room rates went up tremendously! We have always eaten at The Star Drug Store and were intrigued by a beautiful loft located above the restaurant! Needless to say, we were very impressed with this beautiful loft and accommodations! Street parking was super convenient right outside our door, walking distance to many restaurants, shopping and attractions on The Strand! The property was beautifully decorated, provided many amenities and the host, Natili was amazing! She is very attentive to detail and made sure our "first time" stay was not only memorable but

Excellent location
We only stayed for 2 nights but had a wonderful time. Everything is within walking distance. It was immaculate from a cleaning perspective, decor was excellent, loved the high tiled ceilings and AC with ceiling fans kept you very cool. We will definitely go again.

Even better than advertised
If you are looking for a place to stay in Galveston, look no further. This was easily the best, most comfortable and most convenient place my wife and I have ever stayed at. The pictures, as impressive as they are, do not do it justice. As soon as you walk in you will know you made a good decision. The loft is quiet, the bed is comfortable, there is ample spare linens, the bathroom is clean and well stocked with clean towels, and the kitchen is very functional/nice.
Additionally, you are literally on top of a fabulous breakfast/lunch restaurant, and within walking distance of all the shopping, eating, coffee sipping or antiquing your heart could desire.
The host is attentive and responsive, and the check in process/ parking availability was a breeze.
Seriously, this is a hidden gem. Stay here if you can, you will be so pleased.

If your coming to events at the 1894 Opera house this is a perfect place to stay. You can walk there and several great seafood restaurants on the piers nearby.

This place is perfect for a trip to Galveston. Very close to downtown and East beach. The loft was much more comfortable than a hotel and was very quiet. Natili is a great communicator and made us feel very welcome. The food downstairs is pretty darn good too. We will be staying again!

A delightful, impeccably maintained, super well-situated suite that could not be better for enjoying some of the best parts of wonderful Galveston! We really enjoyed being able to experience many of the local venues, walking tours and the harbor with just a short walk from the space. And don't miss the Star Drugs diner downstairs and a chance to meet the host! Highly recommended!

Another great stay!
This was our 2nd stay in Loft A. Everything was as perfect as it was the first time. Manager is friendly and very helpful. Don't leave town without enjoying a great meal downstairs in the Star Drug Store.
