Hostel The Nest Boutique Hostel
Salthill 107-109 Upper Salthill Road, Salthill, Galway, Ireland – Great location - show map
The location in Salthill is fab! 5 minutes from the promenade and 15 from the city! The room and hostel were sparkling clean plus great bedding! Free parking was a bonus as well!

A double private room was very spacious and clean, equipped with a small refrigerator and a climate control system. I also found a common kitchen very convenient, but due to covid-related restrictions it was available upon request only. There is another small room (mini-kitchen) with unlimited supply of tea and coffee and attached to it a big reception room where it is nice to eat and chill out. Wi-fi is fast and stable everywhere. Location is very good if you prefer promenades along the ocean shore over historical center buzz and noise.

Very friendly staff, arrived early but allowed us to do everything to check in bar getting the key. Leaving us free to park the car at the hostel and explore the city. Room was on par with what you would expect at a hotel, with a very comfortable bed and overall chic, but cosy interior. The bathroom was massive, and very modern. The nest seem to do the simple things to a very high standard, putting them above the rest. Will have to return again, and at such a reasonable price it would be a waste not to.

Great location, quick walk down to the strand. We had a family room for our party of 4. Interconnected by the bathroom. Absolutely perfect. Fridge in each room. Clean facilities. For a “hostel” it’s so much more and well worth a stay!!

Great value for price! It’s hostel after all, but it was done in style and everything was clean! Bed was big and comfy! We really enjoyed our stay!!

Lovely, well run and wonderfully designed hostel at really affordable pricing, with great staff. Precautions taken made us feel safe and protected during the current pandemic too. Love the vibe and layout. Facilities great too for travellers.

This place really felt luxurious. While siting in the common room relaxing I felt like I was in a fancy atmosphere. There was a fridge in the room to keep our food chilled and I feel this property really went above and beyond in reagrds to containing the spread of coronavirus.

What a fabulous place to stay in lovely Salthill. A really lovely English lady on the front desk - smiley and friendly and a very smooth and efficient check in. Such a cute room with little coloured lantern lights and we had a fridge which was a real bonus! Excellent shower with beautifully fragranced toiletries provided. We had a super comfortable bed with very soft linen. We only spent one night here but we shall definitely return for a longer stay in the not too distant future hopefully!

I’ve stayed here twice. Once in their hostel and once in their hotel after a long day of travelling. Loves both. Clean facilities, great lounge area and nice staff. Even allows me to check out just a bit later. Also convenient if you want to go outside the city as it’s right next door to lots of bus stops. Will definitely recommend and stay here again.

Great staff, tasty breakfast, comfortable and stylish lobby to hang out, complimentary tea and coffee highly appreciated.
