It’s ok. Did not exceed my expectations.. the stuff is slow and looked somewhat lazy, it took them about 10 minutes to notice me at the reception while been totally available and not busy with other customers. Paid for the room with sea view and got an air conditioner box for a half of my window on the second floor, room #257. The food at the restaurant was great though but overpriced in my opinion. Didn’t feel homely enough and moved out to the different resort.

From the time I saw this "resort" I thought it would really be like a "resort" instead it gave more of a cruise vibe. The place is beautiful from the outside, some places inside were nice, but when we got off the elevator and saw those ugly walls that made me think of a cruise. Pure ugly!!! Made me dizzy! Then we get to our room and the pictures made it look like heaven...NOTTTTTTT!!! $1400 for 2 nights!!! Partial view of the ocean consisted of a partial view alright and a view of the roof under us...no microwave, no iron, very small room...not worth $524 a night. Pool wasn't that great either, swim up bar stayed closed due to the rain. Maybe I'm spoiled when it comes to resorts but this was not it. Was not happy and didn't enjoy it!

Have stayed at this hotel a half-dozen times over the years and always enjoy it. This 2-night stay on Labor Day weekend was no different. I like that it is located on the seawall, so you simply cross the street to go to the beach. The pool is simple, but nice. When we went to the pool during this stay (5pm on Saturday), there were no waiters taking orders/delivering drinks. So you had to walk to the pool bar for service. That was disappointing given it was a holiday weekend and still a few dozen patrons were in and around the pool area. Otherwise, we had no issues with this stay. The restaurant has good breakfast. The recent renovations looks great! Overall, it's a nice hotel and they price it accordingly (not cheap). I'll definitely stay here again in the future (but only for special occasions due to the price).

Great stay in Galveston.
Great stay at the new Grand Galvez. Been coming to this hotel for many years. The new gaudiness of the new version was a Turn off at first, now I’d have to say it’s a part of the charm. Just look at my photo! The room & bed was super comfortable. We will be back asap. Thanks.

We couldn't figure out how the work the fancy shower. 2 calls to Guest Services to ask for help with this were answered but no help ever came. When checking in the staff made a great deal of the facilities available to us but made no mention of the $40 fee. This we did not realize until we got the bill. Most of these facilities we did not even use!!!!

This was our first time staying at Grand Galvez and it won’t be our last. The building has been renovated and is absolutely beautiful. You have no reason to leave the hotel as they have everything covered. Standards and class is of utmost importance. Food pool beach bar spa ! The room was so clean and roomy. We were very pleased. The pool has a swim up bar and people come around the take your food and drink order. Nice touch. Service at this hotel is phenomenal. Keep up the work Grand Galvez, we’ll be back for sure

I enjoyed the history of the Galvez and staying there is like now I am a part of its unique history. My fourth-floor room by the staircase at the end of the hallway was very small but nice and quiet, the only complaints I have is the water pressure was very weak, and the room refrigerator was so small that the only thing that would fit in it was a few soda cans.
