We loved our stay here at Petra! Frank gave us a warm welcome when we first arrived! He helped us with our luggage and booked our tour to Aran Islands. Every morning he greeted us warmly and was very knowledgeable! We never wanted to leave! Location was great, a nice walk to the pubs and shopping area. Thanks Frank for... More

We arrived in Galway in the late afternoon and reached the Petra House easily. We were greeted by the perfect host, Frank. He has this down to a science. He is friendly, helpful and knowledgable, but knows when to talk and when to quietly disappear. Our room was large and nicely decorated. The skylight in the bathroom was perfect and... More

Our stay was delightful: good size room, well equipped bath, great location. They have thought of every detail to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. My husband hasn't stopped talking about the fantastic oatmeal. Sadly we didn't meet Joan but Frank was a great host and we had some wonderful talks with him. Learned a lot. Would highly recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Petra's B and B. A very friendly host and hostess offered a clean and charming room for us, in addition to another scrumptious breakfast. We have found that every B and Bs that we stayed at in Ireland gave a great number of choices for breakfast, and usually in addition to the main menu,... More

what else can I say, but just perfect. The accommodations were spotless, comfortable and centrally located. However, the proprietors, Frank and Joan, are what make this B&B so special. Frank is the epitome of a B&B owner, always thinking of his guests and how to make them comfortable. Joan is an excellent cook, providing topnotch breakfasts fit for kings and... More

Room: large, with a very comfortable bed - tick. Bathroom: spotless, towels changes every day which is not always the case for a B&B - tick, and oh don't forget the best power shower (that's what they are called, I think?..) I ever had to deal with while in the UK or Ireland - I kid you not, for someone... More

Frank and Joan offer a step back in time with their elegant formal breakfast and hospitality. Victorian decor, neat and clean, with large comfortable rooms. Friendly hosts who made us feel most welcome. Close to all of the center city action. Easy stroll into town.

This is an outstanding inn to stay while in Galway. Frank is the most gracious host one could hope for. From the warm reception upon arrival to the advise about the city and area to the best breakfast selection we had while in Ireland, this was a first rate stay. The location is excellent, the rooms very good and I... More

This B&B was outstanding. Other than the tiny car parking accommodations, everything else was superb. The breakfasts were wonderful. Prepare yourself for a tasty, hearty breakfast because the meal will last you all day. The host was very helpful and gave us great recommendations for places to eat and visit.
