At Eyre Square, the warm and comfortable Imperial Hotel in Galway city center is close to Galway University NUIG and the bus and railway station.

The location of the Imperial was perfect, close to everything! The staff was friendly and accommodating. We ate at the restaurant for dinner and breakfast, both were excellent meals. We loved our stay in Galway and would choose the Imperial again.

Very nice hotel, clean and comfortable. Spacious rooms. Helpful friendly staff. Breakfast was fabulous, lots on offer. Also caught up on washing here through the hotel - great service! A little out of the way, but an easy 20 min walk to Galway centre  (or if you dont want to walk, there is a free phone service available to dial a taxi).

FAQs about hotels in Galway

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 colored shops and restaurants.

Sights in Galway include its cathedral and city museum which has 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.

    Nice townhouse, with enough room for all of our family of 5 with older teen/young adults that need their own space. Cute living room with a little balcony! If you don't mind driving to town, it's a good option. Free parking at the door of the townhouse was wonderful! I would say if you are using Galway for a base and doing a lot of day trips, it is perfect to avoid the downtown/ city centre traffic. We were able to get in and out easily and the drive to town to eat dinner was easy. Great value.

    A very clean, well appointed B&B, with all the amenties, in a quiet residential neighborhood. Just feet from a bus stop for three main city routes to downtown Galway. Ireland is a country where B&B's are the main place to stay if you want to be by the sights. Each B&B has it own whimsy with the host or hostess representing a large part. Marie was our hostess and was a good part of helping us get the most out of our visit to Galway.

    This is a nice hotel with good amenities. While it’s not in the city center it’s also not far from it and it’s only about a 5-10 minute taxi ride away. The room was larger than expected, especially since I’m used to hotel rooms in Europe being so small! The room had a nice nespresso machine and even offered room service which was perfect when I didn’t feel like venturing out! It was a great place to lay my head after a busy day of touring the area and I would stay here again!

    Wonderful atmosphere close to city centre and the docks in Claddagh. A short walk out to SaltHill or up to Eyre Square. The room was lovely and had everything I needed for my stay and the host Ann was so warm and friendly offering a wonderful selection of breakfast choices from the full Irish, to some fruit or a bowl of cereal to keep it light. She always greeted with the same energy as visiting my family. If timing and schedules work I look forward to another stay next year. Many many thanks to the Griffin Lodge for such a lovely stay.
