The staff is super friendly and helpful, there's always a smile for guests 😀 The rooms and bathrooms are clean and everyone seemed very respectful both in dormitories and common areas. The common space is amazing, there's a kitchen with everything you might need and a big table that's perfect to enjoy your meals while having a coat with other travelers. Cushions by the windows to sit back and relax are just great and there are books and games to play! Always water and tea available. I had my best time in Galway, will definitely come back!!

The Nest Boutique Hostel offers a majority of double and twin rooms with attached bathroom which have comfy beds, soft linen, power showers, fridges and contemporary Irish art work.

This was our first time staying at a Hostel. A family of 4, 2 kids. The girls were excited about the bunk beds. The staff was SUPER nice and the location was perfect. We parked a few minutes walk and it worked out great. We had a room with 2 bunk beds and a bathroom/shower. Everything was clean and felt super safe and comfortable.

Located in Galway and with National University of Galway reachable within a 19-minute walk, University of Galway Rooms has express check-in and check-out, non-smoking rooms, a shared lounge, free WiFi...

I am a graduate of NUIG and it was lovely to be able to host a American student I am mentoring on campus. Very accessible to Eyre Square and many of the special sites unique to Galway City.
