Our stay at the Coppersmith Inn far exceeded our expectations. The atmosphere was very warm and inviting and was a great "home away from home". You couldn't ask for a more hospitable place to enjoy a stay. The breakfasts were outstanding. Served family style in this elegant home. A great way to get to know others. Would highly recommend a stay at the Coppersmith Inn if your in Galveston. We will be back!! Jim and Sandy Govro Sherman, Texas

Less than one year post-Ike, these hearty souls have brought their beautiful island back to life. The Coppersmith Inn is in full swing -- immaculate, charming, no evidence of the devastation of that storm. Kudos to Ellen!

Our stay at the Coppersmith Inn was our first "get away" without the kids in 10 yrs & our first experience with B&B's. What a get away it was! The house and rooms are beautiful, & the service impeccable. We felt welcome and well cared for from the moment we arrived. Ellen was the perfect hostess, providing us with wonderful suggestions for dining, entertainment, and historical information on the city of Galveston. This review would not be complete without mentioning the breakfast! My husband's favorite part of our stay. Truly a master piece! All in all, we would highly recommend the Coppersmith Inn for either a romantic get away, or a family vacation.

The home is a beautiful step back in time. Rooms are decorated in the period, but with just enough modern touches to make it comfortable. The outstanding part is the hospitality! Ellen makes everyone welcome, and Galveston is back to being a favorite destination.

My husband and I stayed only one night, but were very glad we stayed at the Coppersmith Inn. We stayed in the Rose Room which was small, but just right for the two of us. The breakfast was wonderful and the late night homemade cookies were a bonus. We look forward to coming back and plan to tell others interested in a B&B.

Our first trip down to Galveston and we picked the perfect B&B. We weren't sure what to expect after Hurricane Ike, but were surprised to find the Inn in perfect order and the town actively repairing any damage, well on its way to recovery. Our room was fantastic a most comfortable bed with great period decor. The balcony is a must for anyone who likes to sit outside for the evening. Ellen and Kirby were great hosts, and the breakfasts delicious! We will be back!

This was our first visit to a B+B, but will not be our last. We eill definitely return to the Coppersmith Inn. I just hope other B+B's will meet the high expectations that Ellen and Kirby have set. My only complaint is our lunch was ruined by the delicious breakfast served each day. I can see why it was voted best breakfast on the Island. Thanks for a great weekend...Matt+Heather

Kirby and Ellen were wonderful hosts and their breakfasts were generous and tasty. This B and B was beautifully furnished and the rooms were comfortable and quiet. One suggestion would be to provide black out curtains or full shades so that guests who wanted to sleep in were not awakened by the early morning sunlight. Have no complaints, my husband and I enjoyed our stay.

Kirby welcomed us with great warmth and a plate of coconut macaroon cookies. They were delicious! The room was everything I hoped for and better. We were able to share a romantic evening with the most perfect setting. The room was beautiful with great details and decore. The breakfast was delicious with great company. Kirby kept the conversation flowing smoothly. This was our first time at a bed and breakfast and I tell you that we picked the most perfect place. Kirby was such a great host and I could talk for hours with him. I wil be back to the Coppersmith Inn!

My wife and I stayed in the carriage house in May 2007 and returned twice already in 2008. Kirby and Ellen are delightful people, and the Inn is a real historical treasure. Breakfasts are "family style" and very enjoyable. I can't recommend the place highly enough!

My new wife and I spent our Honeymoon at the Coppersmith. It was great. It was our second B&B expierence and they get better and better, however I don't think anywhere can beat the Comppersmith. Ellen and Kirby were great, from our late arrival to helping us with directions and the ghost tour. We've already made our reservations to return for the 4th of July weekend and are looking forward to coming back on our anniversary next year.

During a holiday in Texas my wife and I had the opportunity to stay at the Coppersmith Inn B&B for a couple of days, and I have come to an conclusion about our time there. It was exactly perfect. The house itself is an incredible example of restored Victorian architecture that kept bringing me up short with a "wow…" as I came across yet another bit of beautiful detail which, happily for us, extended to the Christmas decorations which were EVERYwhere and amazing. More importantly, Kirby and Ellen’s hospitality is second to none I have ever experienced, and it set the tone for what to expect during our entire trip through south central Texas. What an amazing find they were. I will certainly stay at the Coppersmith again if I am ever anywhere remotely close to Galveston, and I don't hesitate a nano-second to recommend it to anyone I meet who is going to be in the vicinity. You will not regret staying here.

I wanted to stay last minute in Galveston and everyone was booked. I found the Coppersmith Inn and they had an opening so I took it. My friend and I were celebrating her b-day. We were very pleased with everything the house was beautiful,the gardens were beautiful, and the breakfast was wonderful!!!! Sitting around the main dining table with people from other areas made the the conversations interesting along with breakfast. The swing in the garden was very peaceful and relaxing. The room was lovely and the bed just pulled you in so you slept like a baby!!! My friend and I are glad everyone was booked and we will go back again. Ellen made you feel like you were at home with access to drinks and snacks at no extra charge. Thanks again for a wonderful stay!!!!!!!

One of Galveston's best kept secrets. I felt like I had gone back in time. Victoria's Room is a retreat. The best feature fo the home is it's caretaker, Ellen, who is a lovely hostess. Her southern hospitality and warmth (and her great cooking) makes this B&B a must for a weekend getaway.
