Great experience!
Incredible experience at the Galaxy Hotel! The front desk staff, especially Randy, were always friendly, helpful, and accommodating. The hotel was beautiful, clean, and comfortable. It was the perfect location - walking distance to everything we wanted to see and do in Downtown St. Pete. Would love to stay here again next time I visit!

We stayed on the 9th floor, the view was great. The room was very spacious.
We did have an issue with the room and let the front desk know on checkout.
Randy the front desk manager, without us asking reached out to us later and went above and beyond to compensate us for the issue.
We will definitely stay here again on our next visit.

Nice hotel in St Pete
Galaxy hotel is perfectly located near everything that downtown St Pete has to offer. It is walking distance to shopping, dining, and the waterfront. It is a simple hotel with not too many frills, but very clean and accommodating. The room is spacious and we had beautiful views of the water. The bed was firm and bouncy and not the best quality, but the pillows were nice. The room was very clean, I like the tile floors and the slippers and robe they provide. Albeit there should've have been 2 sets since we were 2 people staying but that's not really that big of a deal. There is a little cafe in the lobby, but that's about all there is that is extra.

Had a wonderful stay at Galaxy. Our flight was cancelled and our trip was cut one day short. Randy, the Galaxy representative worked hard to communicate with Hotels.com to secure a refund for our missed night. He also saw to it that we were in a very nice room and were comfortable during our short stay.

Alba was an extremely professional and understanding employee that deserves a raise. She made sure I was safe and taken care of and went out of her way to walk and show me everything. Hotel itself was extremely nice. Well kept, clean. Very convenient location for downtown and concerts playing. 11/10 experience, I would highly recommend!!! Clean, safe, good staff all around and has a parking garage
