"Across the street from North Padre Island Beach!"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 5, 2012
Our hotel stay was an enjoyable one but I suggest that you get some room service(food) in the future or build a restaurant in the lobby area.

"Easy access of freeway & shopping, movies,etc"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 2, 2012
It is a older motel but beds comfy..room clean...that is all I really need. I don't come to Corpus to stay in a room all day :-))

"Close to eating places and must see sites."Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 1, 2012

"A good wholesome place to stay"
Overall we enjoyed it. The downtown location was new to us but proved worthwhile. Note: the hotel is a bit old as is ALL in Corpus but well kept. The beds were very comfortable! Very clean! The only downers is that the hotel does not sit alongside the marinia so under no room can you get a good view of the bay & you could hear the pipes when flushed. […] The microwave and fridge were a bit outdated, we took a picture because it was old :) The service was on par!! Very polite and attentive. All in all great place for a Corpus getaway, would definitely stay again. Read more
I had to turn down the air conditioner. My goodness, it was cold! But I understand it needs to be that cool to keep the humidity and mold down.

"Nice View-Close to Seashore"
Cable TV was Fuzzy-Internet worst I have used - Unusable. My smartphone was far better and faster. Room not cleaned one day. Trash not emptied on another. Was very disappointed

"Great room, great views of shoreline, great price."
Very pleased. Great view of the shoreline, near downtown, free covered parking area, fair free breakfast buffet.
"Restaurants, bars, & Whataburger ALL near by"
With the exception on the hotel being under construction & a little difficult to communicate with the front desk employee... overall satisfied with the stay. Staff is super friendly. Loved the fact that the room we stayed in had its own little safe box with key to leave my personal belongings and feel more secured about nobody touching them. Breakfast […] was ok... cereal, biscuits, eggs, sausage... but my FAVORITE were the TEXAS waffles :) Would stay here again, as long as its not under construction anymore because it's too loud.

"Everything good except the bed"
I really liked the hotel, especially the location. But the biggest draw back was the bed. It was hard as a rock and my husband and I tossed and turned all night. My back was hurting all the next day.
"Location Location Location"
Corpus Christi is beautiful. Never been here before, and we would love to come back and stay at this hotel. It is within walking distance of everything we wanted to do or see. We had a room with sliding glass doors out onto the balcony that overlooks the pool (only 2 rooms with this feature). This hotel is pet friendly and we had our dog. We were able […] to go out and sit on the deck, let her get some exercise (we were by ourselves) and look at the bay and the marinas. People were super friendly, room was clean, beds were great. Would definitely recommend this hotel. They have done some updating, and it is a nice hotel. Free parking, which is also convenient. Read more
The front desk told us the wrong times for breakfast

"Great beds, breakfast and views"
The beds and linens make sleeping very comfortable. Breakfast was very good - yummy biscuits and sausage patties and 'make-your-own-waffles in the shape of Texas. Nice covered parking. Close to everything with view of the T-heads and boardwalk.
Great stay! Will definetly stay here again!
"Best Western Marina Grand Hotel"
Room was great! Beautiful view, received great mobile phone rate! Major construction being done to lobby, but staff was very friendly. Complimentary breakfast was filling, lots to choose from, very clean! The view from breakfast floor was enjoyable. walking distance to great restaurants and museums. Will definitely recommend to others. Will visit a […] gain! Read more
"Too close for comfort"
The hotel overall was as rated a three star and it was that or a two and a half. It's clean and the beds are comfy, though quite high. Our view of the bay was nice. It was within walking distance to many clubs and eateries. But miles from the beach. The walls are paper thin and the balcony doors are not sealed well, so you can hear everything, up to […] and including the very loud, sometimes bad music coming from the clubs till the wee hours of the morning. Breakfast was mediocre. They were not prepared to serve as many people as were there and they had a minimal staff trying to keep up. (bad management) The desk people were not very friendly either. If you need an affordable place, sleep like a log, don't care about rust or roaches, and you don't get up for breakfast even when the water pipes are screaching, then stay here. Read more

"Best Western in Corpus Christi, Texas"
The room was in a nice area. the bed was made nicely and we slept real good. The shower stopped draining when I first started taking a shower and drained later. There was a hair on the bathroom sink. When leaving we had no thank you or have a nice day from the front desk. Overall it was good with a few minor things. I would stay there again.

"Spring break"
Second stay for us, both times very pleased. Comfortable bed and pillows. Very clean room. Breakfast is great and so is the view!! Everything was great!!! Price was reasonable, very trustworthy place!!! Only complaint are the tiny elevators!! But overall very satisfied !!! Can't wait to take my kids back!!!
"worst room I've ever stayed in"
When we checked in we turned the act on 60 we left the room for 3 hours when we came back it was so hot n the room it was 90° so I went to the front desk they said they would send someone up to fix it so we left again when we get back about 6 hours later no change so I call the front desk and they tell me to sleep with the door open really I didn't […] pay to sleep with the door open I was so upset and told the I was not going to do that so then they changed my room for what the new room was just as hot was not a good stay at all Read more

"great service"
Front desk clerk Tommy was great, conducted himself as if I was checking into the Ritz! Parking was covered and the hotel location was perfect for those on holiday.
"great time"
The hotel was in a great location walking distance within many attractions and restaurants definitely going back

"Things to improve"
While cost cutting is major for all of us these days hotel guests seldom pack shampoo , soaps etc and the quantities provided were insufficient. Also after travelling extensively I was annoyed at being woken up several times with the loudest flushing system I have ever encountered.

WiFi really non-existence Dial up would have been better Supposedly free WiFi but would take forever to get any reply. It was better to wait until you were someplace else
"very good"
we had a really comfortable stay! Even the breakfast was good.
"Best Western Marina"
Location, location, location...ah, and the hotel is nice for the price too.
"Best Western Marina"
Pleasant stay. Room was clean but an overall dated feel to hotel leaves a lacking feeling. Customer service at front desk was awesome. View from room was pretty good (10th floor) despite the foggy conditions. Walls between room allow a pretty considerable amount of noise through though not too much of a problem. I will be staying here again, especially […] when discount through the site applies! Read more

"Killer view at breakfast"
The hotel was fine. The room was nice and had a partial view of the bay. The doors to the balcony opened so you could step out and really look around. Parking is free and so was the Internet, which was fast and easy to access. The most impressive thing was the 11th floor breakfast--with huge sweeping views in almost every direction through floor to […] ceiling windows. What a place to enjoy a meal! The breakfast was far better than i expected, with several hot selections, fresh fruit, cottage cheese, three kinds of juice, and many kinds of pastries. I especially liked the Texas-shaped waffles with fruit and whipped cream. I would stay here again. Read more
"perfect hotel"
Perfect location. Two Story Whataburger in walking distance so as Subway via Super 8 hotel. In our hotel room we could see Xmas decorations and the bridge that change colors at night. Nice room with fridge but only 1 grip, why didn't the television have NBC, I couldn't watch Saturday Night Live but they did have BET unlike most hotels.
"Corpus hotel on the beach"
Very friendly staff, eager to insure our stay was first rate. Breakfast was in an 11th floor ballroom-not only a fresh, hot breakfast, but a million dollar view. Hotels.com beat the hotel's lowest price they could give us by $30. Great hotel at a very reasonable price. Wish we could get such a good rate during their busy season. Close to hospital, restaurants, […] & night life. Read more
"Another great stay!"
This is the fourth time we have stayed here, and another great experience! The one standout that impresses me is how quite the rooms are, we have never heard outside/hallway noises, which is rare in a hotel! Also, the breakfast is wonderful and a great top floor view of the bay! We were able to bring our pet with us, which was a huge bonus. Highly […] recommended! Read more
"Our stay at the Marina Grand"
View of bay and marinas was wonderful. Free breakfast was one of the best I've seen. Blankets on King Size beds were odd, as if they were not long enough. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would go back.

"BESTWESTERN MARINA ,CORPUS CHRISTI, TX"

"Perfect long weekend getaway in Corpus Christi"
We stayed at the Best Western Marina Grand Hotel and were pleasantly surprised. This property is classified as a 2 1/2 star but my wife and I both think it deserves slightly better. The location of this hotel (opposite the Lawrence St. T-Head) is superb. We were able to walk almost everywhere during our trip and hardly used the car. We had originally […] booked two queen beds (the only option when we made the booking on hotels.com) but the front desk was able to switch us to a room with a king for no extra charge when we checked in. The staff at this hotel is extremely friendly and accommodating. During check-in we were also given dining coupons for local eateries (Landry's, Joe's Crab Shack, Harrison's Landing and Texas Roadhouse) as well as coupons for discounted admission to the USS Lexington and the Texas State Aquarium. The room we stayed in had both a mini-fridge and a microwave. The shower head in the bathroom has a rotating head which is great for neck massages. The restaurant on the 11th floor where we ate breakfast has a fantastic view of the Corpus Christi Marina and the Corpus Christi Bay. Considering the complimentary parking and hot breakfast (scrambled eggs, sausage, biscuit, selection of cereals, waffles, juice and coffee) and location and cleanliness this is a really good value for the price. We will definitely be staying at the Best Western Marina Grand Hotel on our next visit to Corpus Christi. Read more
"Anniversary Trip"
The first night was good the second night we started smelling a fowl oder the third after noon it was so bad We had to change rooms the staff very accommodating the breakfast was good the view was great overall it was good.
"EXCELLENT"
MY WIFE AND I CELEBRATED 12 YEARS OF MARRIAGE, THE SERVICE WAS GOOD, LINDA AT THE FRONT WAS THE BEST ,SHE GAVE US A ROOM WITH A PERFECT VIEW OF THE BAY. THE BREAKFAST WAS EXCELLENT, STAFF WAS NICE .
"Convenient location"
This is right on the bay-front and is both close and convenient to many attractions in Corpus. The room was clean and comfortable. Will stay again next time we are in the area.
Satisfied with hotel. The major complaint was whenever the next door occupants used the shower or flushed the toilet it was VERY noisy in our room. Hotel staff was excellent. Breakfast had a nice selection.
"Great stay at Corpus Christa Best Western Marina!"
We very much enjoyed our stay here due to it's convenient location to resturants & the Cathedral in downtown C.C.! The room was very comfortable & the complimentary hot breakfast were very much appreciated. The price was right too. Will plan to stay here again...
"Best Western Grand Marina on 300 N Shorline"
The motel and location were great and we will be returning. The staff was wonderful and efficient. The only two issues were the irons do not heat up and the bath tub needed better cleaning.
"Best Western Marina Grand Hotel"
The internet never worked..I feel that it is false advertisement. The front desk man said that the computers were down, but I don't see how because he was on the computer himself! Other than that everthing was nice.
"three long nights"
This hotel has many good things but a few negatives.There aren't computers in their very small lobby.The rooms are noisy.You hear the flushing of your neighbors commode.The AC unit sounds like a train.The staff is not knowledgeable of public transportation.Breakfast is great,housekeeping is wonderful and this is a safe hotel.Their room rates are too […] high so use a discount connection.
