My wife and I stayed here for a couple of days over the Easter holidays. There are bus stops outside the hotel and a few minutes you are in the centre of Galway or you can walk it as it is not that far. The hotel has a good sized car park and there was still quite a few spaces even though the hotel was full. On entering the hotel reception we were greeted by a lovely receptionist who dealt with our booking and provided us with a lovely double room which overlooked Galway bay. The room had a massive double bed which by hotel standards was one of the most comfortable I have slept in. The room had tea/coffee, hairdryer, television, direct dial phone and wireless broadband. The bathroom had the usual layout except it had the most wonderful powerful shower I have ever experienced in a hotel yet. The room was clean and non smoking and was warm at night when you needed it at this time of year in Ireland. Breakfast was in the main restaurant where cerials and fruitjuice was self service and you were served a harty full Irish fry up with loads of toast and tea or coffee. We ate in the lounge where they had a very reasonable and varied menu which we both enjoyed very much. There was also entertainment after the meals had stopped which meant you could relax and savour your pint of Guinness. We can recommend this hotel for your stay the staff are friendly and very helpful and it is a spotlessly clean hotel. We look forward to staying there if we are ever in that part of Ireland again. Sightseeing try the Cliffs of Mohar, Salthill, Lisdoonvarna or fly over to the Arran Islands it only takes 7 minutes from Galway. All in all a lovely part of Ireland where everyone is very friendly. Go there you will love it especialy in the summer when Galway City realy comes alive.

Myself and Two Friends Stayed in this hotel in the first weedend of February. Although the building looks a bit dated inside and out the standards of service and the state of the hotel room made up for this shortcoming. The Triple bedroom was clean and elegently furnished. You did not get the claustiphobic feeling of being in a triple room , unlike previous places heretofore. Breakfast was enjoyable if not brillant. The Hotel Bar was quite lively on the Friday evening [ did not visit it on saturaday ] with guests, local charecters and a band performing.
Although the hotel is outside of Galway City Centre the Sunny weather made walking into town and onwards to Saltill a real pleasure. We came to Galway from Dublin by Bus as the Bus Stop for National Routes is just yards {meters } from the Hotel.
Finally all round Good Value for money and a positive stay.

My boyfriend and i stayed at flannerys late feb 08 and we had an absolute fab time! we were greated by a very welcoming receptionist who directed us to our room which was spacious, immaculate and modern.
We went to a local restuarant called Oscars in Galway city on the fri night and i can honestly say i have never had a nicer meal in my life and i would recommend it to anyone coming to the city!
on the sat night we ate in the hotel restuarant which was well presented and a good quality meal.
Overall i would say we had an enjoyable experience with flannerys and i would definitely stay with them again.

Best Western Flannery's Hotel Galway Ireland

Went to Ireland for our honeymoon in Dec. 2007 the 2 night stay at Best Western was great! The wife wanted to stay more days just because the hotel was so nice. Not like a best western back in the states… this is modern and NICE. I felt like i was spoiled because it was so much better then all the ohter places we had stayed. The room was very clean and spacious, it had a small 19 inch TV and a desk to put your things. The best part for the wife was a built in Hair Blow dryer in the bathroom( ALSO HOT WATER and nice shower). A HUGE plus was the free in room WIFI wireless internet at DLS/ cable modem speeds. Another nice thing about the hotel is that it is located in front of a bus stop… maybe a 1 minute walk to the bus and it comes every 15 min. Free car parking …got to rest the RENTAL!! For me being from the U.S. it was nice to take the bus and not drive on the left. From the bus you can take a 10min ride to Galway city town center. Tons of restaurants, pubs and places to shop right off the Galway centre bus stop. Ask where shop street is … follow the crowd. THE BED WAS KING SIZE first we had in a week!! It was a treat to adventure right off the 10 min. bus ride. We found a deal off hotels.com and have nothing to complain about our stay. Also the staff was very kind and helpful they gave me perfect directions to Athlone and then onto Dublin. Some of the nicest staff we had in our stay in Ireland. This hotel was comparable to a USA Sheraton or upscale Holiday Inn..maybe even something better. Has a restaurant and bar inside the hotel. This place was truly nice and a treat compared to some of the B&Bs we stayed at.

as they say in Ireland ...Thanks a million... Cheers!
