We arrived in Galway on June 9th to find the Fairgreen Hotel on longer in operation. Strange that we were able to book it online though in early May. There were posters on the doors/windows stating that the Radisson was honoring all reservations (thank god!). The Radisson must have bought the hotel, connected both of them, renovated all the rooms, etc. We still stayed in the "Fairgreen" section of the hotel which did not have air-conditioning. The rooms were nicely updated, with nice bathrooms, shower stall, large towels, good soaps, hair-dryer, desk in room, tv that had 14 channels (more than our last hotel) and alot of American-like amenities. Our friends who stayed in another room did not have a good experience with the air in their room and not having the ability to open the balcony doors for more air but we had a nice stay. The breakfast the next day was held in the lobby of the Radisson (this was included in our reservation). It was the largest, best breakfast I've probably ever had...they had everything from smoked salmon, to yogurt, eggs, bacon, white/black pudding, all kinds of cereal juices, danishes, etc. And the breakfast area was beautiful overlooking the bay. The bars in the hotel were also nice. Our experience was great overall since we were technically staying at the Radisson, not the Fairgreen. I'm not sure it would have been as nice if we were solely under the Fairgreen as we paid 156 US dollars for each room which would probably have been more had we reserved the rooms under Radisson. The parking garage was free with a validation from the hotel. Pluses - Fairgreen was taken over by the Radisson, the breakfast, parking garage and room amenities (aside from the lack of air-conditioning).
