Check in starts at 4. We waited 1.5 hours for our room to be ready. Went to the desk at 4 our room wasn't ready. We had dinner plans at 5. At 530 I received a text that our room was ready. The shower was warm. I like a steamy shower. I was freezing in the shower. It is a very nice property. Room was very nice. We stayed here for one night. Pool is very nice.

I think the check-in process was very long. The lines were long. Also think when you put a room for sale that says balcony, I think you should specify what type of balcony because we were facing a parking lot which we would not have paid extra for that.

Great Stay. Need 2 valets on duty during busy time
Love staying at the Hilton Galveston. Tommy, a valet, was wonderful and did a superb job in helping us with our luggage and getting our car. Two issues: (1)was unable to connect computers from our room. Was able to connect at the front dest but not in our room. Frustrating. (2) the valets , Grayson and Tommy, were absolutely superb and did a wonderful job. My issue is that during this stay there was only one valet on duty and during busy checkin/checkout times he would be taking luggage to a room or getting luggage from a room, which takes time but leaves the valet station unattended. Paying $26 per day, certainly expect the hotel to have more than one valet on duty during known busy times. Having only one valet on duty is not fair to the valets or the guests paying $26 per day. This is a management problem and not an issue with the valets, who were working as hard as they could to cover two venues: parking/getting cars and delivering/picking up luggage for guests.

Great One You Get Past the Front Desk
I had a great stay -- except for the check-in and front desk manager. My room was promised @ 4:00. Not ready. I asked how long, Jamie at the desk could not tell me so I sat in the lobby with my suitcase. Went back at 5:00, again Jamie said she could not tell me. I had plans for the evening and could not change and she could care less. Did not offer a cup of coffee or anything just told to wait. I went back at 6:00, again she could not tell me when. I then called the Hilton customer support line. They called the hotel then came back on the phone and said go to the desk, my room was ready. Shazzam it all of a sudden it was ready...why did it take that call? No apologies from the desk or anything. The Hilton was great...as I said after you get past the front desk. I would not mind visiting a Hilton again but not the one on the Galveston seawall. I will NOT go back due to mismanagement at the front desk and not caring attitude by all, especially Jamie.
