Hotel The Connacht Hotel
Dublin Road, Galway, Ireland – Great location - show map
Room was pretty large and comfortable. Bathroom seemed a bit dated, but everything was clean and working. Breakfast was absolutely amazing. Live music in the bar in the evening with efficient staff and great atmosphere. Judging by how many kids there were around the place is really family-friendly. Best gym / swimming pool I have seen in a hotel so far (i.e., you actually do a proper training if you are a gym-goer. Which is great!).
JerseyThey made our stay really special, it was our anniversary. Food was great too. The hotel made up for the bad weather. Highly recommend this hotel

RussiaThe breakfast was great and lots of selection. The staff were fantastic and the rooms were a good size and very clean.
CanadaSusanna at the front desk is fantastic! She should get a promotion and a raise. Her hospitality is amazing.
United States of AmericaGood location, only 20 mins walk to Eyre Square, plenty of parking. Enjoyed the leisure centre too, bit on the older side but very clean and comfortable.

CanadaProximity to downtown. Nice size room. Work out room
United States of AmericaVery active place, buzzing with activity in a good way. Separate wing for family was really great, quite and comfortable. Bar and restaurant were always full, staff was helpful. Perfect place to launch for a run into downtown.
