CanadaThis hotel was great. It's a smaller and more homey. Breakfast was worth the 10 euros.
United States of AmericaVery nice location. Great evening meal!!! Very clean and spacious room.
United States of AmericaThe location was great and near Eyre Square. We enjoyed our stay so much that we stayed in Galway longer before returning home to the states. Staff were very friendly and everything was clean!
United States of AmericaLocation was great! We walked from bus station, only a couple of blocks, and were able to walk tp many other things in the area. I'd highly suggest this hotel, if not using a car Staff was friendly & helpful as well. Very good live music most nights in downstairs pub. Local shopping center, with M & S groceries, just the next block over. Gave us a way to have snacks, yogurt, fresh fruit or pastries in there morning to take with us on the bus tours we'd booked.
United States of AmericaI liked that the hotel was in the center of everything in Galway. Many bars and restaurants. Hip location. Great to shop. The hotel's restaurants were superb. Many options to choose from hot to cold preparation of food. Really cool bar. The place felt historic and cultured. Genuinely nice and accommodating staff. They scheduled private taxis on many occasions to attend a family funeral. Also well prepared as they had a plug adapter for international travelers. Clean and updated rooms. Bright lobby with secured access. The beds were very comfortable, I especially loved the pillows.
United States of AmericaWe were lucky enough to get an upgrade to one of their apartments, which was lovely. Although separate from the hotel, it was a quick 1 minute walk to make use of the restaurant. The food for breakfast and dinner was great . (If you're arriving soon, I recommend the chicken on the dinner menu). Would certainly stay here again.
AustraliaLocation was excellent. Room was spacious and perfect for a family of four.
United States of AmericaGreat location with large bedrooms, friendly staff and relaxing bar.
IrelandBreakfast was very good, we took advantage of it most of our stay. The location was very convenient to the train as well as downtown shopping. We especially enjoyed the Trad(itional) music night on Thursday.

The required deposit is 50% at the time of booking and a further 50% deposit is required at least 2 weeks prior to arrival. The property will contact guests shortly after booking to confirm the procedure, along with details regarding the security deposit required upon arrival.
