The staff are incredibl'y friendly and the kitchen is excellent - we as a group had requested bar snacks for a post-concert party and expecting a tray of triangualr sandwiches were pleasantly surprised by an array of Tapas! The breakfast the following morning was also excellent - from porridge to full Irish with an array in between. First impression of the room is that it is a little shabby, but very clean and beds very comfortable.

I enjoyed my stay, I really liked the fact that I was really close to the ocean and that the area was quiet. I was happy with the fact that there was a bar downstairs. Another positive aspect was that I could choose what I wanted to have for my breakfast, as I wouldn't eat every component of an Irish breakfast. I liked it as after breakfast my stomach was full and no items went to waste just because I wouldn't eat them :) Overall I was really happy and I would go back again. :)

The location was brilliant and the Ward's Bar very pleasant and cozy. The rooms should be more updated with furniture and heating in bathroom would be great! (We had room no. 18). Something about steep and narrow stairs should be done as well.

I lied the face that it was close to salthill where my daughter now attends college, and was close to the city of galway. The staff were friendly and the breakfast was very enjoyable. The shower was also enjoyable. The room was far too small and pokey, even for one person, and there was a musty smell in the room, probably from the carpet and curtains as they were not up to modern standards. There was no internet access at all in my room and was informed that this was due to the fact that my room was on the top floor. If I was a big person, the bathroom would have been a huge problem as it was very very small. Was not worth the €50 I paid for it.

the breakfast- tasty food and very good service. the rooms were clean. when we needed one room changed because it was too small we got the service right a way too many stairs to get to the rooms and the entrance is stuffy when u get in. the towels were old and torn we had them changed . the place could use re modelling to make it brighter

Ottimo albergo di gestione familiare. Personale molto disponibile e simpatico, camera sempre pulitissima, colazione eccellente. La posizione è perfetta a metà tra la città e la spiaggia di Salthill. Siamo stati una settimana e ci siamo trovati veramente bene. Perfect hotel: very helpful staff, extremely clean rooms, very good breakfast, Location is perfect, 10 minutes from city center and also 10 minutes from the Salthill beach. Absolutely recommended. And Galway is a wonderful place!!! Niente. Tutto perfetto.

Cercania al centro de la ciudad.Personal simpatico. La habitacion y las zonas comunes del hotel, son bastante viejas. En mi opinion le haria falta una remodelacion. Tampoco te sirven el desayuno, si lo necesitas antes de la hora a la que suelen servirlo, pero sí te lo cobran...

Nous avons réservé 3 chambres : 1 double et 2 singles. Elles sont toutes les 3 assez petites. Le petit déjeuner est très bon. Pour arriver au 2nd étages, l'escalier est très en pente ce qui est risqué avec des valises.

L'accoglienza dello staff, la colazione eccezionale ed il pub direttamente al piano terra!...niente paura nelle stanze non arrivano nè rumore nè odori del pub! Per chi cerca la classica accoglienza irlandese! La pulizia di lenzuola ed asciugamani non era molto buona..... Inoltre il wi-fi funziona solo al primo piano e non nelle stanze al terzo piano dove ho soggiornato.

J'ai adoré l'ambiance qui pouvait régner dans cette hôtel qui fait aussi pub. C'est vraiment très chaleureux et le service est très bien. Des cloisons peut-être un peu fine qui n'empêche pas de bien dormir

Rooms were fairly small and cramped. Noise from other guests doors closing was very loud as was use of stairs etc. Bathroom towels never matched and were tatty at times. Our group were drinking Bud Ice but there were no ice cold glasses available, big disappointment. No residents bar either.
