Holiday Inn SunSpree Resort Galveston (Galveston, Texas)

From the hotel's official website. It hasn't made any structural changes to the hotel despite the loss of the branding. I wanted to expand on this one (another Carbon-izer import). The Holiday Inn SunSpree Resort brand was started around 1994 with conversions of 18 existing Holiday Inn hotels in Mexico, Canada, and the United States and by the mid-2000s had expanded to several more properties, though I don't ever remember staying in one, and the only thing that really seemed to differentiate it from a regular Holiday Inn was the "KidSpree Vacation Club" (children's activities)— for this reason it was probably discontinued and folded into other brands when Holiday Inn did its major brand refresh in 2007.

From a hotel directory, c. 2004. Personal collection. Galveston was one of the later additions to the chain, opening in 2005 at 1702 Seawall Boulevard, keeping its logo and brand several years past the discontinuation of the brand, and becoming Galveston Beach Hotel in 2014 during its renovation into a DoubleTree by Hilton. The new Doubletree By Hilton Hotel - Galveston Beach, officially opened February 2015. The original construction demolished a few Seawall Boulevard businesses, the eastern terminus block of Avenue O 1/2, and the houses along it...but not actually the original 1702 Seawall Boulevard address. The older building that shares the 1702 Seawall Boulevard is currently vacant--this was Salt Water Shop (surf shop and bike rentals) until the mid-2010s, until it moved to the space next door. It looks like it may be used as the hotel for event space.

I couldn't find any good pictures of the hotel when it was a Holiday Inn SunSpree Resort, there's one here and of course Street View.

Additionally, it features 100 rooms and six suites on six floors (per a 2005 hotel directory) and there's a partially enclosed bar (serves some food items), Longboard Pool Bar (formerly Captain Jacks under Holiday Inn) between the pool and the street.
