Abstract: It is shown that a Hopf algebra $ H$ over a field admitting a Galois extension $ A$ separable over its subalgebra of coinvariants $ B$ is of finite dimension. This answers in the affirmative a question posed by Beattie et al. in [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 128, No. 11 (2000), 3201-3203]. It is also proven that this result holds true if $ H$ has bijective antipode and the extension $ A/B$ is Frobenius.
