After the long flight from The States and then a 3 hour bus ride from Dublin, Delores' lovely, smiling face was a very welcomed sight. She is a friendly beam of sunshine and she made our stay at The Forge a very positive experience. The location is a short walk to The Latin Quarter and all that Galway has to... More

I had a lovely stay here at this B&B in Galway City. It is in a great location in the center of town, easy to get anywhere, while still being in a nice quiet area. The room itself was very nice, clean, and comfortable; a very welcome thing after a day (or night) walking around Galway. Dolores was an excellent... More

Fine, basic accommodation. It was downright freezing while we were in Galway, so the room was a bit chilly, but we warmed up under the covers. Dolores was an excellent host with great recommendations and she is a great cook. The breakfast was way more than we needed, but all delicious and warming for the day. The location was great....

We had a lovely two nights at the Lodge. Dolores made us feel very welcome from the moment we rang the doorbell to the moment we left. The room was clean and comfortable and the breakfasts delicious! We had been tempted to stay closer to the bay but this was definitely the best choice. So close to all the bars... More

My friend and I recently stayed at the Forge for 3 nights. It was adorable and clean. Dolores is amazing and she is great cook! If you are looking for a quaint place to stay in Glaway look no further! The rates are reasonable as well!

I highly recommend this cozy B &B. My room and bed were comfortable, Delores was friendly and so helpful, breakfast was fantastic, and the location was great. Within walking distance of everything i wanted to do. I really enjoyed my stay and will not hesitate to come back the next time I travel in Ireland.

We recently stayed 2 nights while visiting Galway and found this B & B to be more than satisfactory. We were greeted by Bernard after a kind gentleman actually walked us to their location. We got some great info on good restaurants and pubs in the area. Later we met Dolores and she went out of her way to make... More

Great location for this B&B, just in the middle of everything, giving you a lot of options. The host, I mean Dolores, was lovely. She always had a tip for me on what to do every day.She made me feel like home. And the food...ohhh man, best breakfast I ever had. 10 out of 10 for the food. In conclusion,... More
