Cracking City of Craic
Welcoming Galway is a small city with fantastic nightlife and an infectious atmosphere. Outside of the Galway Arts Festival, there’s still plenty of live music in the Irish pubs to get the party started.
The Galway Races at Ballybrit Race Course west of Galway Airport attract a good crowd, as does Eyre Square, a green space with flags of previous ruling families who gave it its nickname - City of Tribes. To the south are cobbled streets housing brightly coloured shops and restaurants.
Sights in Galway include its cathedral and city museum which offers an interesting insight into the history of the city and Ireland. Lynch’s Castle is the last remaining 17th-century merchant house, and the Spanish Arch is a small section of city walls by the Corrib River, linking Galway Bay to huge Loch Corrib. Where river and ocean meet is Claddagh Park, a great spot for a picnic with a view.
Further around the coast is Salthill Promenade, home to Atlantaquaria, Ireland’s national aquarium, focussing on sealife off Irish shores. It’s a Christmas Day tradition to jump from Blackrock Diving Tower nearby into the icy Atlantic Ocean, though you may well spot some wag giving it a go.
Booking.com has an excellent range of Galway hotels, apartments and B&Bs to complete your stay.

Charming city, plenty to look at, buskers and the live singing and music at night was fantastic. Lovely walks. The Irish people are delightful, helpful and so friendly wherever we went. There are plenty of hidden restaurants and bars and tax free shopping.
Loved it all.

It was not just a holiday, we were visiting family. Loved Galway, but that is partly due to my family coming from Galway. Galway City is fabulous plenty to see and do, music everywhere, great atmosphere, very helpful friendly people. McDoungha's for fish and chips! The land train is fun and takes you out to Salt Hill. The City Bus Tour is good too. It is easy to get around the centre of Galway, it is quite compact. I was not a solo traveler, my daughter was with me.

Nice city with buzzing centre, yet very well organized in terms of traffic compared to other Irish cities. Also many sights within an hour's drive, so it's a good point to have a sleep and not to get bored :)
What i didn't like that Galway people don't have sales skills whatsoever. We were there in Summer high season and majority of high street shops closed at 6 pm however the centre startet its life around that time. We got home fron a Cliffs of Moher trip at 6 and nothing was open only the pubs and Irish memorabilia shops.
Also in latter shops there was only a few types of Galway specific things, the rest was the same that you can get in the very first shop at the Airport (for cheaper). We spent ages to find a nice Galway T shirt, but had to settle with sone mediocre stuff.

Plus points-charming city, easy to get around, lots of nice quirky shops and cafes, good hotel stay.
Rather overshadowed by a couple of really rude business owners and as I was only there overnight, not good for a tourist destination.

Would visit again - so much to see and do. We were there for the international arts festival. So many places to eat and all that we used were excellent value. Very friendly atmosphere everywhere we went and perfect service in restaurants despite being tourists!! Easy walking too.

Galway is a fantastic City, can be pricey to eat and for accommodation- but regardless of the weather, there is always a lovely atmosphere on the streets. Eyre Square is fab, music, tourists - very relaxed.
“Clean rooms, homely atmosphere, clean, cosy, beautiful terrace, kitchen with all ovens and stuff. Close to the city center, amazing hosts, good value for money... Best place we stayed at in Ireland! Breakfast was delicious and homey. We wished we could stay longer”
“The Hotel was within walking distance of the City Center so we were happy enough with that .Customer service was very good the staff were helpful and friendly”
“Lovely modern comfortable hotel. The con for that pro is that you are a taxi ride from the city centre. A cheap taxi ride though so worth it for the lovely rooms, friendly staff and bar that is open late enough for a nightcap ”
