Editorial Review for Moody Gardens Hotel – by Joshua Hinsdale

In Short
Moody Gardens covers more than 240 acres just inland from the Galveston seawall. The 428-room hotel offers upscale rooms and suites, heated outdoor pool, swim-up bar and 100,000 square feet of meeting space. Three glass pyramids house the rainforest, aquarium, Imax, RideFilm theater and science learning center. There's also a white-sand beach, 1800s replica paddlewheel boat and seasonal ice rink. Shearn's Restaurant, on the hotel's top floor, is an island favorite.

1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

Moody Gardens Hotel looks spectacular from the outside and the inside looks like you stepped back into the 70s. Peach and sea foam green colors everywhere. YUCK! The restaurant downstairs had the worst food ever. For example, the soup tasted like it came from a can. Oh, and plastic and silk flowers hang from the ceiling to give you that garden feel. Don't eat anywhere in this hotel. Your better off driving to a restaurant. My advice is to make them show you the room before you stay there. Ours was really tacky. The pool was nice, if you like huge crowds. Bring a ton of money if you are going to any of the attractions. The attractions are fun for small kids.

Pros: Across the street from Schlitterbahn and all the major attractions

Cons: Tacky and Cheap rooms, Bad Food

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

The restaurant on the ninth floor, Shearn's is absolutley fantastic. The best views, food and service on the island...or just about anywhere.

Pros: friendly staff, great lounge, freshest of fresh sea

Cons: none I've come across
