The staff within the hotel are friendly and the rooms were clean and beds comfy. Food from the bar was amazing as wore the coctails, they lost a star cause of the bill system and kept getting orders mixed up and tried to charge for drinks we didn't order, this may be a staff communication issue but it was the only downfall.read moreread lessCora Hennessy 3/04/2022Phenomenal employees who make this hotel v special. It was absolutely excellent from Start to finish. Everywhere we met the hotel staff from initial reception to the housekeeping and restaurant/bar staff, they went over and above in terms of helpfulness, and friendliness and genuine care and attention. I cannot think of more outstanding staff across the board in all the hotels I have been in in Ireland and there has been many through work. The location obviously could not have been better. It was excellent value. We had a salad, Pizzas and cocktails, all of which were excellent. We look forward to visiting again and thank you for making our stay so special.read moreread less

- niamh195 2/02/2023Winter Warmer Package My boyfriend and I recently stayed in the hotel for one night and enjoyed the Winter Warmer package.
The room was very nice, as was the bathroom in the room.
We dined in Queen Street and were disappointed on arrival to see the menu was different and smaller than the one shown on the website. The food overall was nice but nothing special. Our starters were both very nice (Caesar salad and goats cheese) however our mains were not as good (burger which was dry and fish and chips). The service in Queen Street however was amazing and all the staff were very friendly and attentive.
When leaving the bar that night we enquired what time breakfast was served until the next morning and we were told 10:30, but when we arrived for breakfast at 10:10 the following morning we were told breakfast had stopped being served which was again, disappointing as we had breakfast included in our stay. The girl who was in the restaurant cleaning up told us we could take any of the continental breakfast that had not been put away yet back up to our room with us which we did.
Despite these few things, we still had a lovely stay and would return sometime in the future.read moreread lessIan Mills 4/04/2017Great Location just off of Eyre Squareread moreread lessJohn Yeates 4/04/2020Lovely place right in the heart of eyre squareread moreread less - Reginald Mcaviney 4/04/2020Enjoyed visit nice staff very good menu ,nice place all round well done Victoria Hotelread moreread lessTrent Hill 4/04/2020If you're a first time visitor to Galway, this is my recommendation.

- Evatobin 7/11/2021Best hotel and chef in Ireland. Room was perfect location couldn’t of been better. Staff went absolutely out of there way to make sure we were looked after. Hats off to chef Ben his menu is incredible honestly the best food we have ever eaten. We had dinner the first night and decided to cancel a booking we had for the second night just so we could try more of Bens dishes. We can’t wait to return in august. Also hats off to manager David for running such a great team. It’s Not very often you see that anymore. Even the security doorman was so friendly ensuring we got a nice table out the front when it became available. Thanks again guys. See you soon.
