Top Central City Hotel Reviews

Embassy Suites Corpus Christi

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was good"

DoubleTree by Hilton Corpus Christi Beachfront

8/10 Good

"The front desk staff was informative and attentive. We arrived early and they still tried to accommodate us. Beachfront was amazing! We were in room 212 and had cigarette buds blow onto our balcony along with personal belongings, our view was of rooftop and Lexington. A decent view but 3rd floor and higher is ideal. Bar staff was fast! You can take your drink to go. Close to the aquarium, Lexington, gas, whataburger and local bars."

Tru by Hilton Corpus Christi South Padre Island Dr

10/10 Excellent

"I've stayed at the Tru in 2 different cities. The formula is exact. It's a very open, young atmosphere. It's extremely clean and well-maintained. It is minimal in decor, i.e. hooks and hangers instead of a dresser; and I like the fact they only clean every other day (daily if you request). It's pet friendly and has all the amenities of this class of hotel. There is no restaurant/room service, no coffee maker or microwave, but there is a mini-fridge. Good coffee is available 24/7 in the lobby and I'm sure they'd find a way to heat the leftovers. I feel safe, and the bed and pillows are super comfy. The topper is the TV has all my fav stations and the ability to hook into it with your laptop & stream. Room rate is $100/nt average."
