We (my husband, 2 year old son and I) spent 3 days in this hotel. I would definitely recommend it and stay there again. Although initially I thought our family room was a bit small - it was fine as we were only in morning and night. The hotel is v child friendly and although their kiddies club was closed as the season was over, they gave us the key and we were able to take our wee guy in there every night to play with the toys as a special treat before bedtime. The buffet breakfast was delicious with loads of choices. We had 1 evening meal there and again, great choice and tasty food and friendly service. We were also blessed with good weather so we were able to get out and about all day, which was great.

Just returned from 2 night stay in Galway. Hotel was pretty average. Room was clean and bright but had terrible mildew and condensation on window sills. Noise was a problem, with guests returning from night on the town at 5.15am! Breakfast was average, coach parties in abundance. Good evening entertainment and very pleasant helpful staff. Great bus service runs from just across the road from the hotel, right into Eyre Square for only Euro1.30, every 20 minutes, and back again using 2E, 4E or 5. Fabulous leisure pool - enormous with all usual facilities. Remember swim hats compulsory in Ireland!

This is a very nice, contemporary hotel. The rooms looked as they do on their website. They have plenty of parking. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were clean. We even had breakfast on the two mornings that we were there and it was pretty good. The staff was friendly. No complaints with the hotel or staff or location. It is about a mile into the center of town so we just drove there every night.

The only down side to this hotel is that the rooms are very warm and stuffy and the windows only open a couple of inches, not allowing much air in. There is no air conditioning or a fan provided so there is no way to circulate the air in the room. You can request a fan at the front desk but I think there is a fee, not sure if the fee is given back when you return the fan.

Just back from a weekend in Galway and must say we just loved the Days Hotel. The facilities were excellent and staff were very helpful and friendly. The food was excellent as we had dinner and breakfast, however the dinner menu was somewhat limited. However it was so tastly it compensated for the lack of choice (approx 5 main courses). The pool was beautiful - really clean and spacious and again staff in the leisure centre were really helpful. The bedroom was tastefully decorated and shampoo and shower gel was provided - see other review. We were allocated a room with a balcony which was a nice feature as the weather was quite hot. The hotel provided entertainment which was quite good as we arrived late on the first night and didnt bother going into town. As stated before coach parties seem to be attracted to the hotel - I guess I cannot blame them - they were really well catered for and it certainly did not put me off. The hotel is however about a 20 minute walk from Eyre Square, however the bus stop is just outside the hotel and taxi's are readily available. Hope this sets the record straight - the Days Hotel is certainly one of the best in Galway City if not the best that I have stayed in - this was about my fifth visit to the city.
