Hotel Galvez And Spa, A Wyndham Grand Hotel

Overall, very good experience. Highly recommended!

My wife and i had a very good time. The staff was very nice and helpful. the hotel has a lot of history. If you can take a tour of the hotel with Bobby. YOU WILL HAVE A GOOD OLE TIME.

The room was small, but very nice. Bed was a pillow top and comfy. Pillows were not down, which was surprising. View was great, hotel lobby and pool were very nice. Staff was very attentive. The elect. was turned off the day after we got there from 10 am till 4 pm, not a huge deal, the a/c was working, we were just in and out. Cleaning the carpet in the lobby was a bigger deal, chemical smells give me migraines, but I got in and out quick and lucked out. All in all, it was a great stay, the tiny bathroom vanity was the biggest problem in my opinion....we'd definitely stay here again.

Great staff, clean rooms, nice pool,just an overall nice place. Rooms were small with no refrigerators or kitchen area. I would have liked bigger rooms with more amenities for the money. I give it a 8.5 on a 10 scale. I would stay again though for sure.

We enjoyed our stay for the last weekend of Maudi Grau Glaveston. Loved the old world charm of the hotel. It was a special birthday weekend for my husband and the hotel was a very nice treat. We really enjoyed the Sunday Brunch and the live piano music in the lobby. Very relaxing and nice weekend. Will definitely stay here again. We hope to stay during the summer months to try out the lovely pool and cabanna area.

Weekend getaway in an historic Galveston hotel, great history and story that they could play up more. Had a king room and though comfortable I would have preferred a bigger room. We had the Sunday brunch which is not included but a great meal and worth the trip just for the brunch. Great atmosphere. Nice and courteous staff. I think the price was high for the night but would go back.

Hotel Galvez is beautiful! From the moment you walk in you cannot help but be impressed and enveloped by the feeling that you just stepped back in time to when life was a bit slower, more gracious and inviting. The paddle fans barely rotating instantly put you in 'relax' mode. Southern charm mixed with Spanish Revival architecture and decor makes this hotel a sight not-to-be missed. The rooms are on the smaller side but well appointed with everything you need including a blow dryer, toiletries, coffee maker, coffee, tea and two bottles of water were a nice touch. We stayed in Room 423 that has a less than desirable view but served its purpose and then were upgraded (for free I might add) to Room 401 - just below the supposed haunted Room 501. It was a beautiful oceanfront corner room with a small walking closet and full office area. We didn't want to leave! Both beds were so comfy it was hard to get up especially with the view of the ocean we had without having to even lift our heads off the pillow. The amenities at the Hotel Galvez are top notch from Spa to Restaurant to the pool and jacuzzi area - it has it all. I enjoyed a pedicure one day and we loved the massive Sunday Brunch that happen to fall on New Year's Day. The staff are all wonderful and concierge are so sweet and informative, I wanted to take them home with us to Connecticut. The area was heavily damaged by Hurricae Ike, so be prepared. There is much rebuilding and repair yet to be done to the area that has a ways to go before it's back to its prime. Thankfully the Hotel Galvez was spared any damage. We had dinner at Fish Tales one night and lunch at the Mosquito Cafe the next day. Both were yummy. The Mosquito Cafe had a nice eclectic feel with a healthy modern menu and to-die-for mango ice tea and curry tuna salad. We also had dinner at Queens one night - which I would highly recommend if you are looking for some legit Texan BBQ and locals. We rode the bikes that are offered for free for use by the hotel. What a great little perk! We had fun peddling around the beach area with the sea breeze in our faces. The Strand offered us about two hours of entertainment with its many bars and touristy shops but nothing unique that you cannot find in any other oceanfront community. What made our visit special was beautiful romantic and haunted Hotel Galvez. We love you Hotel Galvez and we hope to visit you and Galveston again sometime soon.

The hotel was beautiful! Great loaction, right on the beach! Staff was friendly and more than helpful! Sunday Champagne brunch was awesome!!! The only negative comment I have about this hotel was that the comfortor in the room was stained, which was kind of gross.

Great place to stay, the staff is excellent and the hotel has great charm. The rooms were comfortable and clean, Definitely will go back again,

The hotel is amazing. It is spotless. The staff was remarkable: they were helpful, friendly and polite. We ate breakfast there, and it was delicious. The pool is gorgeous, too.
