Took my husband to this spa just for the day and we both had massages. The people were all very friendly, the spa was nice but the massages were just ok. We've been to many spas and I don't think we'll return to this one. When I get a massage I usually can feel it for the rest of the... More

You will treasure your experience here....excellent, well trained, personable staff who are always helpful. Immaculate facilities, beautiful, relaxing decor.

Overall, I am satisfied with my stay at Hotel Galvez, but there is room for improvement. My husband & I stayed Jan 28-30 to celebrate our birthdays. We have stayed in historic hotels before and know the rooms are typically small, so I reserved a King Suite at a rate of $279+ tax, which included breakfast at Bernardo's. We opted... More

First time we ever had the Sunday brunch at the Galvez was after our duaghter's wedding in 1994. Great time. (We had her wedding reception at the Galvez. Good time but it cost me!) We've had the brunch several times over the years there. It has always been excellent - good food and service. The last time for brunch -... More

Last weekend we stayed at the Hotel Galvez for the first time. We had reserved a corner room on line and had asked for confirmation that we would received a corner room. Notwithstanding the fact that I had received such a confirmation, when I checked in, I was told that there were no corner rooms and that corner rooms could... More

You have to love history to appreciate the Galvez. Built as a beacon during the recovery after the Great Storm of 1900, the hotel was in the midst of its 100th Anniversary Celebration when we visited in August 2011. I had not been inside since 1967, so it was a real treat to see how beautiful it is after a... More

My husband and I enjoyed the weekend in Galveston at the Hotel Galvez. It has beautifully restored. The Spa experience was really quite wonderful. The restaurant needs a good bit of help. The food was tasteless and the waiter was a dope. My assigned room was as big as a postage stamp. The beds were doubles again just tiny. Beautifully... More

We stayed at the Hotel Galvez and Spa for two nights on January 27-29, 2012. We booked this as a last minute getaway and received a great deal ($140/night) using our Costco card. The hotel is beautiful and majestic with even better staff. We stayed in a different room each night with our first night being on the spa level... More

My husband and I stayed at the Galvez January 26-29 for a weekend wedding. We have stayed at the Galvez many times over the years and know what to expect. The front desk service was good as was the valet. The hallway walls were being painted on our floor when we arrived and I was glad go see this attention... More
