Spent one Saturday night at this smart little hotel in downtown Galway. The Volvo Ocean Race teams were to arrive sometime that evening and every bar/pub/restaurant was filled to the max. In spite of the crowds that partied late into the night, we heard no street noise from our suite (the windows are treated so as to buffer sound). The... more

After a lovely meal elsewhere we decided to go to the House hotel for a cocktail last Tues 9th June. When we were finally greeting by the barman after waiting 8 mins for him he explained to us that they have a cocktail menu but he doesn't do cocktails. I thaught more training for your bar staff would be offered... more

I stayed in this hotel for one night last weekend. The location is fantastic - close to shops, pubs, etc. It was also an ideal location for the events of the Volvo Ocean Race. I was given a wheel chair accessible room as I was told on check in that this was the only room available. The room was spacious,... more

Galway’s The House Hotel is a gem. My dear wife and I spent a pleasant, although rain-sogged three nights in The House. We arrived in Galway by railroad train from Dublin (the train in itself was a pleasant adventure), left the train station with our bags in tow, and walked the easy four or five blocks to the hotel.

Some dried... more

Gorgeous hotel. Perfect for couples or a getaway with the girls. They do fab cocktails downstairs in the bar!! The hotel and the rooms are decorated beautifully...really pretty. The staff are all wonderful, they couldn't do enough for us. Didn't have breakfast so can't comment but I'd have no hesitation in recommending this hotel. 5* more

I stayed here for one night while I was on business and thought this hotel was very cozy, chic, and romantic. It doesn't have a "hotel" feel when you arrive, the reception area is two low desks where the staff sit and encourage you to sit down in one of the comfortable chairs. They are very helpful - if you'd... more
