If you are looking for an excellent Irish hotel that gives you great value for your money, in a perfect location, this is it. The hotel's up-scalerestaurant is outstanding by any standard, as was the less expensive bar/restaurant. The room was spotless, well decorated, furnished and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and always helpful.

You are one block from the train and bus station; the city center; and within about 15 minutes walking distance of anything and everything you would like to see in Galway, and yet the hotel is as quiet as can be.

Don't miss McDonagh's Fish House while you are in the city. Best fish and chips I have ever had. Stay away from Pucans Bar, across the street from the hotel. They advertise traditional Irish music etc. (it is a tourist trap).

Stayed one night, mid-October. Galway is busy town, if you are arriving from the south or east you need to take a left turn before the Hotel to use their car park and avoid a lengthy one way system. Hotel is very nicely furnished in the public areas. Staff were just so friendly and helpful. Our room was a nice size, clean and furnished to a high standard. There was broadband available at a price in the room but much cheaper option was the Internet cafe almost next door. This Hotel is virtually in the centre of Galway with lots of eating and drinking options. The Harbour area is about 15 mins walk away. We had a bar meal in the evening which was good in quality and value for money and the breakfast in the morning included in our deal was surberb, full Irish!
Overall, rates very highly with us.

Loved this Hotel.An oasis of peace in Galway City.The room was beautifully furnished and the standard of housekeeping throughout the Hotel very high,the carpets are very plush and we heard no noise from other guests.Breakfast is cooked to order,with a good choice including fresh fish.Plenty of seating areas downstairs for relaxing.The menu for the Restaurant and Bar were extensive and the staff attentive. Should we ever return to this City would not consider staying anywhere else.

the decor in this hotel is shabby and very dated.the double bed we had sagged in the middle and the room was tiny.at breakfast the next morning the restaurant manager kept shouting at the staff to smile at the guests??
a very poor hotel and not worth the money
