New hotel... nice decor, very central... rooms were exceptionally nice, the only issue was with the food, a lot of the food detailed on the menu were not available when requested and the portions were small and not exceptionally nice! No bar in the hotel which meant it lacked a bit of atmosphere.

We were pleasantly surprised and pleased by this large hotel a few paces from the heart of Galway. Thank goodness the hotel is smoke-free, since the streets of Galway are packed with second hand smoke. Rooms and meals were of high luxury - the personel were kind and helpful. One caveat - a large plant in the foyer was increasingly droopy during our stay, despite our pointing out the need for water - perhaps corporate rules forbid watering of plants on weekends or bank holidays. Otherwise, outstanding hotel.

Very convenient location on foot, and you won't get parked any more centrally in buzzing Galway. Very pleasant well-equipped room, good value booked on the net, and loved the leisure centre. Great fun steaming in the jaccuzzi outdoors overlooking Lough Atalia. Be warned restaurant books up quickly for dinner (it's excellent for a hotel restaurant). Buffet breakfasts offer an astonishing choice, well worth the price. Only one disappointment - we couldn't get the particular spa treatment we fancied, but it was short notice. Itching to go back for a spa weekend. We asked about the tariff for Glasgow Radisson on checking out - Glasgow was hugely more expensive.

Like another user below, I am surprised by some of the negative comments about this hotel in some of these reviews. We stayed in the Radisson in Galway for one night and really enjoyed our stay. I thought it was excellently placed - right beside the train station and one minute's walk from Eyre Square. The staff were all very pleasant and we loved the leisure facilities, making use of the pool, sauna and hot tub (which offers lovely views over Lough Atalia). Our room was a good size with decent-sized bathroom. Although lacking in aspect, I've no doubt that you could request a room overlooking the lake which would be lovely. We found the room to be spotless, and the breakfast plentiful and delicious. It's fairly pricey which is why I'm giving it 4 instead of 5, but I'd definitely stay there again.
