The Connacht Hotel
Dublin Road, Galway, Ireland – Great location - show map
The rooms were good, all that I can complain about was the shower gel dispenser was empty, ( luckily we had our own ). The breakfast was good, and served hot.
IrelandBed comfortable, pillow options good, everything clean. There's an EasyGo slow car charger in the car park, not quite as convenient as an ESB one, but good to be able to charge overnight. Walk into town was not unreasonable, and reception had printed out relevant bus numbers to hand out too.
IrelandThe hotel was very nice and clean. The bar area and restaurant were big with plenty of tables and always bustling. Lots of staff on duty was avaiilable to take care of us. The breakfast buffet had many choices.
