BACKGROUND
The Spa at the Hotel Galvez is located on the lower level of the hotel, which originally housed a barber shop, candy store and drug store when the hotel opened in 1911. The Spa at the Hotel Galvez originally opened on March 15, 2008. Unfortunately, the spa was damaged by flooding caused by Hurricane Ike which struck Galveston Island on Sept. 13, 2008. The spa reopened to guests in June 2009 and has quickly become Galveston’s most popular hotel spa.
