Stayed for one night in a double on the fifth floor. The best online rate wasn't great but did include parking and wi-fi. The location is great: on the Seawall near the Pleasure Pier and just a few minutes drive from the Strand. The room and bathroom were small but not cramped. The beds were very comfortable but full size... More

We stayed at the Hotel Galvez the last week of April 2013. Our room was on the 5th floor and had a great view of the ocean, yes, it was little, but was fine with us since we didn't spend much time in the room. We had a room with two double beds which we would have preferred a king... More

Thank you for posting a review on your stay at Hotel Galvez & Spa. We are pleased that you enjoyed your weekend getaway. But, we are sorry that the pool temperature wasn't satisfactory. We do try to keep the pool temperature at 80 degrees but it is adjusted as the weather warms up. We will work on our pool service... More

You wont be finding ghosts in your room at his hotel!! The rooms are all new and updated to a completely modern feel. The pool is trendy and has a cool vibe perfect for sipping martinis or grabbing a beer at the swim up bar. The lobby was under construction which should have called for a discount on the room...

Yes, there was construction going on during our stay, but it finished on the second day we were there and we were able to use the front entrance again. Spent most of our time next to the fabulous pool, so we didn't really care. My only complaint is that the rooms are tiny and there are no drawers - only... More
