Lock in a great price for Garveys Inn - Eyre Square – rated 8 by recent guests!

to get started.

The location is very good. There is access to just about everything you would need or want for your stay The rooms clean and comfortable and the staff is friendly and helpful. We have stayed at Garveys several times and find it to be low key and enjoyable.

Breakfast was lovely and the staff were very helpful.

Joanne, Ireland

The location of this property is ideal for exploring Galway. Located right on Eyre Square, it is walking distance to everything, including the Spanish Arch, Quay Street, Shop Street and all the main attractions. It is not overly luxurious but the rooms were comfortable and functional. The staff in the hotel reception and the bar downstairs were extremely helpful. The TV in our room was broken so they immediately offered us free breakfast as compensation, which was nice. I would definitely recommend staying here if you want somewhere affordable in a good location.

Lovely place. Great staff, nice room and good shower

Sam, United Kingdom

Excellent stay and all staff encountered were fabulous

Tracey, New Zealand

We loved everything about this spot. It has a fantastic location right by the train station and bus station, and our room had a view of Eyre Square. It's a 1 minute walk to some great restaurants on the other side of the square, and a 3 minute walk to the main commercial area. We found amazing coffee nearby, good shopping and so many fun pubs and shops to explore. If you are looking for a great spot that is affordable, clean and fun, this is the spot for you! It's in an older building that has it's quirks but we loved it. The staff are nice and the pub downstairs is super fun, late into the evening!

Madelaine, Canada

The room was very clean, the staff were excellent, so friendly and helpful. Brilliant pub, great session downstairs on Friday night, great sound, but I was trying to sleep ! Outside on the Street, huge party etc I slept v little, woke up at 2.40 someone having a late night party ! I heard nothing on Sat night, I was wrecked and slept through it all, I will bring ear plugs next time !

Quiet and friendly atmosphere. staff were very friendly and were able to take time and have a chat. Staff very helpful with advice on tings to do and places to visit nearby.

Peter, United Kingdom

The pub downstairs is very nice with good music in the evening, without causing noise in the rooms upstairs. The location is superb, next to the railway station and 2 minutes from the bus station. And also just 2 minutes to the main street. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful.

Hendrik

“When we first arrived we were told there was no accommodation for bicycles, which was contrary to my expectation based on an earlier phone conversation prior to booking. After doing some searching, unsuccessfully, the staff went out of their way to make a space in a storeroom area which was not intended for bike storage. Staff were also exceptionally helpful in numerous other instances and made my son and myself feel very welcomed. Note: for those expecting a quiet evening, the rooms are above a lively pub in the center of Galway, where nightlife continues well into the late evening. 'Nuff said.”

눉If you are looking for fancy with amenities such as a spa / pool/ fitness center then you may want to look somewhere else. Although the rooms are clean and the beds comfortable they are quite small. It appears they did some renovations since we were last there and made some changes which we were not so crazy about. My boyfriend prefers to use the staircase he is not a fan of elevators. The stairwells were restricted unless emergency so he had no chose Also security has become very tight we needed to be buzzed in and out which the staff was very friendly about doing but it was just a little bit of a pain Oh well things are changing. We love Galway and will not let these changes keep us from visiting again.
눇The location is very good. There is access to just about everything you would need or want for your stay The rooms clean and comfortable and the staff is friendly and helpful. We have stayed at Garveys several times and find it to be low key and enjoyable.
