Staff were great very helpful and very nice. The hotel itself is very clean and conveniently located in walking distance from a few major attractions and is a beachfront hotel walk out the back door and your feet are in the sand. Our room was very comfortable and clean with a great view of the ocean off the balcony as well as the Lexington aircraft carrier museum. 10 out of 10 recommended and would stay again!

This is our 3rd time staying at DoubleTree Corpus Christi, and we keep coming back because its close to the beach and the USS Lexington, which makes it a great place for our family to stay. During this visit, Christopher at the front desk was especially accommodating. We always look forward to getting the cookies at check-in, and he made sure we felt welcome and comfortable throughout our stay. He was attentive and always made sure we had everything we needed. His excellent customer service made this visit even more enjoyable! The only thing that can be a little challenging is getting in and out of the property. Since it’s located right under the bridge, finding the hotel and getting back out to the main road can be a bit confusing, especially for first-time visitors.

The location. The front desk staff was excellent. The maids were excellent. The head guy over the maids started knocking on the door 3 hours before check out time. I changed my room from a King premium to a 2 Queen room. They didn’t give me a Queen Premium room. It was just a regular room. They did waive some fees.

This is THE place to stay if coming to Corpus Christie. Especially if this is your first time. The USS Lexington aircraft carrier museum is only steps away, as is the Texas State Aquarium. And of course you are within spittin' distance of the beach. The hotel is modern and clean and the staff is happy to help at all times. We got a 6th floor ocean view baloney which was a special treat. Blackbeard's restaurant across the street has great food - try the grilled shrimp tacos!

The property was very nice and clean, beautiful view and area They charged me a smoking fee for things that was in my trash… no one smoked in the room and the room never smelled like smoke. They scammed me by looking into my trash. The managers came to my room and knocked on the door and the room DID NOT SMELL LIKE SMOKE
- 5/5
I did not like something there if we have a balcony and we are on the 7th floor , usually all balconies on all hotels that we stayed before , we were go to smoke , this is the one i did not like , because we had to go down to the lobby outside the hotel to smoke .Sometimes it was raining .

Excellent stay with beachside rooms and great views. Delicious breakfast, staff was super friendly and attentive, my only complaint is having to pay a parking fee of about $13 per night. I plan to stay here again in the near future.

I had a great day at the Doubletree and Corpus Christi. The staff was very nice and helpful. The rooms were very clean. The patio was magnificent. The beds were so comfortable. I slept longer than I expected. There was a lot of things around that we went to some walking distance a lot most of them in walking distance. I would stay at this hotel again. I will probably stay at this hotel every time I come to Corpus Christi now.

It’s definitely in a good location if you plan on going to the Lexington, Aquarium or if you just want to hangout at the beach. They do have a swimming pool and hot tub that stays open till 10 on Saturdays. The cookies. If they do not have any when you pull up and they tell you to come back for them. Please make the time to go back for them. They’re good!!!!! I don’t have any complaints.

The people were the best part of this stay. They deserve so much credit. They need to spend some money and update this hotel. The outside door to our balcony would not lock. The place looks dated and parking situation is less to be desired. But there were good people who made the stay more palatable. The staff gets the 4 stars. Double Tree needs to do better for the staff and the guest.

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.

But…..the hotel was flawlessly clean, and the staff could not have been friendlier or more helpful. The room was cleaned every day. There was always tasty food and drinks available. And this hotel was QUIET. I was close to the elevator, and I never heard a thing! The pictures of the pool area don’t do it justice. There’s a really large seating area with tables and outdoor sofas and places to hang out and enjoy the view. I don’t know if it’s connected to the hotel or not, but there’s a jet ski rental on the property, and guests seemed to be really enjoying that. Excellent places to eat within easy walking distance. And one thing that I really appreciated about this hotel is that there were water stations everywhere. If you bring a water bottle with you, you can fill it up for free (and stay hydrated!) I saved a LOT of money, haha.

We asked four or five times to have our bedsheets changed before we went to the beach. The staff assured us that it would be done by the time we returned. However, when we came back, nothing had been cleaned and the bedsheets had not been changed. We were very disappointed with the poor housekeeping service and lack of follow-through.

We were not happy with the check-in; we were given a handicap room with no beach view. I paid for a corner beachfront view. So we ended up paying fifty dollars a night for a beach view. I was not happy. The receptionist said that's what you all gave us. Not happy at all.

My friend and I had a great stay at the DoubleTree! The beachfront location, pool with a swim-up bar, and five-minute walk to the aquarium were perfect. The staff was friendly, and the $16 breakfast buffet was a great value. Parking was about $13 total for two nights. My only suggestion would be adding a vent fan and better air conditioning in the bathroom. We would definitely stay again!

The ocean view from this hotel is fantastic. There is also very easy access to the beach and back to hotel. The place is well kept and check in was easy. I was surprised they charge for parking. There is also a charge for breakfast which is OK, not the best. We ate out the second morning. The room had a terrific view of the ocean, and we really enjoyed that. This is probably the best hotel in the area, with a quick 10 minute drive to downtown area with much better restaurants. Would consider staying there again.

I was also disappointed that I booked a standard room expecting an ocean view based on the photos shown on the hotel's website. Instead, my room overlooked the parking lot. It seems that some of the website photos may be outdated or misleading, as they gave me different expectations for what a standard room would offer. A nice bonus was the warm chocolate chip cookies at check-in—they were absolutely delicious! Aside from the parking fee discrepancy and the misleading room photos, I had a good experience and would consider staying here again.

The staff was very pleasant and able to help us with some ideas to keep busy. The beach area was clean. The room was ready and cleaned by check in time. Parking was a bit crowded upon return if you left for dinner. The cookies were amazing. Our room was a sunset view and we sat on the balcony watching it set.

Staff is the only thing that was good about the hotel. The pool is tiny and maybe 20 people can get in … the ocean is dirty. The beach is scummy. They make you pay for everything even $15 a night for parking and the food is terribly expensive… Corpus Christi is not a place I will be going back to but like I said the staff was amazing and the room was good but nothing else.

The room and the view were nice. However there were too many other issues to overcome that. When we checked in, 30 minutes after the normal check-in time, our room wasn’t ready. We had to wait another 45 minutes. Then, only one of the two elevators was working, which becomes a problem when you’re on the 6th floor. It remained that way for our entire stay. Also, the ice machine on our floor was out of order, also for our entire stay. The shower water pressure was almost non-existent. And, the guest in the room next to us would smoke on her balcony. The parking situation was awful, since the hotel parking lot wasn’t just for hotel guests. And the number of cars double parked was unbelievable, especially since nothing was ever done about them. All in all our stay was just okay, but we won’t be staying at this hotel again.

Falta de mantenimiento al elevadores
- 5/5
Everything was very clean and the staff were great. I love when there is a complementary coffee station in the lobby that is maintained 24hours. The beach is 10 feet out the back door of the hotel. The pool area was a fun place to relax with a swim up bar. The TV's behind the bar were rained out and broken from the last storm they had. It would have been nice if these were working as we were there during the World Cup Final Game. The only big negative is that you have to pay for parking and there is not enough spaces for when the hotel is full, so you pay to not be able to park in the hotel parking lot. This is the one issue that should be fixed. Maybe set the lot to key card entry for paying guests only and not let it run as a public parking lot?

Only one elevator as the other was broken so there was always a line. Parking paid through a third party. Wanted gratuity for breakfast buffet. Seemed to nickel and dime every chance they got. Brown something on side of sheet on bed. Smell in the hallways. Overall just ok. I expected better for the price.

The hotel only had one elevator working which may the waiting terrible. (POOR) 5. For the price I paid for ocean view I was hoping for a better view. I didn't appreciate that we had a half wall obstructing our view. (POOR) 6. The parking was very limited, especially since we have to paid for parking. (POOR) 7. We were not made aware by the front desk staff that on Saturday and Sunday it was breakfast buffet. (POOR)

The only issue was the pillows were too soft and the water pressure was awful. Overall, five stars, it's an excellent hotel. We had a wonderful time. Bring a pillow if you don't like a lack of support. My two gripes aren't enough to give it a lower rating. The place was fantastic!

Clean rooms but 1 of the 2 elevators was broke and took about 5-10 mins just to get on, they finally told us we could use the service elevator. Someone was wiggling our door around 4AM, and paying to park at a hotel your already paying to stay at is crazy too.

Stayed week of 4th of July. One of the busiest weekends of the year and only one elevator worked. They never had anybody out there working on it the whole time.. Guess not a priority. Spent a third of vacation waiting on elevator. They also expect you to pay $12 a day for parking... not disclosed until you get there. The only reason we would stay there again is because of the location.

Our stay was over a holiday weekend and it seems they were short staffed for the bar and kitchen. Dinner on July 4th at 5:30 we sat at the bar thinking we would get service fast bc we had plans later. Took 20 mins for just the bartender to speak to us. Seemed he was doing all tables by himself the room was packed. We over heard him talking to someone else and he didn’t have the best attitude and said there was a 30-45 min wait just to get food. Also there was long waits for the elevator they had 2 elevators but only one was in use. The morning we left the elevator doors wouldn’t open completely and we chose the stairs. This info was provided to stay and their response was “it happens”.

The location could not have been better. Walk out the back door to the beach. The room was a nice size and clean. It felt a little tired and I think the entire hotel could use a little refresh. It was very hot and humid when we were there and the in room air conditioning barely kept up. It was ok and not hot in the room but never got close to what I would say was cool/cold. The staff were wonderful and helpful. The onsite restaurant food was average and we were happy to have it.

I checked in and went to my room and it was so run down and smelled weird. The carpet looked dirty and I couldn’t believe it was actually a Double Tree. I couldn’t cancel my reservation, but I wasn’t going to stay there so I left and had to pay for another room at another hotel.
