will be trying the bar/restaurant tonight!
stayed for 4 nights and was super close to many bars and resultants that make exploring ireland very easy and funread moreread lessFlaminNora1519 3/09/2022Perfect location for our Galway and Aran Islands Trip From the outset this stay was exactly what we needed it to be . The reception gent was excellent - helpful , efficient and experienced . He helped us with our bags , gave directions to the free parking around the corner and answered our questions . The room was excellent and a great location for Eyre square and the City .The breakfast was good quality , efficient and tasty .We stayed here to catch the shuttle bus to Rossaveal ferry terminal to go across to the Aran islands - and it was perfect for that purpose . The pick up point is 10m up the road from the front doors ! We would have left our car in Q park for the four extra days we were away , to make use of the really good discounted rate available after the one night complimentary parking - but that rate is only accessible for 3 days , so we parked elsewhere.( I might have missed that info on the website , but If it isn’t there , it might be useful to add .) overall a great stay . Thanks Victoria hotel team - we will be back . Keep up the good work .read moreread less - Elaine Gallagher 4/04/2020Very nice bedroom and the bathroom was really nice. Staff were lovely. I would recommend this hotel 🖒read moreread lessitsmish 3/15/2022Great Hotel, Friendly Staff The hotel is in a great location, close to everything. Walking distance to what feels like an endless amount of shops, restaurants, and activities. Rooms are clean, semi-modern, and well equipped. No fridge in basic rooms though.
The rooms are also pretty small, definitely on the more compact sideread moreread lessBernard Mccormark 4/04/2019Great location breakfast not included and at 10euros extra rather pricyread moreread less - Reginald Mcaviney 4/04/2020Enjoyed visit nice staff very good menu ,nice place all round well done Victoria Hotelread moreread lessCharles2ke 10/07/2020Good Hotel right at city centre Good Hotel right at city centre.
Galway station and bus stop nearby.
All restaurants 2 mins walk away.
Good clean hotel with delicious paid breakfast, but was worth the pay.
Bathroom was clean and included necessary amenities. Bed linen and towels were clean and spotless.
The staff were very friendly.
Appropriate Covid measures taken.
Booked directly from their website which was cheaper than Booking.com / Trip Advisor etc.
Recommend this hotel if visiting Galway for a short stay.read moreread lessOliviaFH94 3/16/2022Amazing bar! We’re staying in the hotel for St Patrick’s day and our first stop was the bar within the hotel. Kieran served us on both occasions and was wonderful!

We had the lovely room with the glass case window. Bed was extremely comfortable. Room was very clean and the tub was fantastic! Staff was friendly and courteous.

I hope I find myself in Galway again and staying at this hotel.read moreread lessSteven Rines 4/04/2019Currently under renovation, rooms are not very roomy.

- D5309KAjenniferh 8/19/2021Fantastic experience Me, my daughter and my friend had booked an evening meal in Victoria Hotel off Eyre Square a few nights ago and I'm still raving about the warm welcome and the delicious food. The staff are so friendly and very inviting. We were shown to our table and the ambiance of the place was lovely and warm. The food was 5 star quality and chef Ben and his team were spectacular.

We also had a terrific experience in the Victoria Hotel restaurant. I would highly recommend this property. Plus, the price is right.read moreread lessE8151BCjamesl 8/08/2021Excellent location and recently refurbished I had read mixed reviews about Victoria Hotel so wasn’t sure about my hotel choice. The poor reviews and photos seem to have been from before the renovations so if you’re looking at traveller photos, look at the date as only the newer photos really apply.
The staff in the hotel are really friendly and we had no issues at all during our stay.
Our room was spotless and the only thing I’d change is the chance to cool it down with air conditioning as it was a little hot at night even with the window open.
The hotel is perfectly located just off Eyre Square. It’s not noisy at night considering how close it is to the square.
We dined 1 of the evenings in the bar and the food was fantastic. It was a nice atmosphere in the bar with all staff adhering to Covid guidelines etc. It was table service only for drinks but the staff were very efficient and we didn’t go without once
Breakfast was a very nice on both mornings. Had to book a time slot but had no issue getting a time we wanted
Just a tip. We priced our stay on Booking .com and phoned up the Victoria to see could they match it. Not only could they offer a better rate, they added breakfast and free parking (our parking bill was €37 for the weekend) so we got a great deal by booking direct. Parking is in Hynes yard about 200m down the road.
Overall I’d definitely recommend Victoria Hotel and I will definitely be returning when we’re in the city again.read moreread lessAssunta D 10/04/2020Excellent set-up measures for covid 19 !Perfect location.Friendly and professional staff.The room we had was tiny, clean, with all comforts.The breakfast is really good and with multiple choices, the full irish breakfast was amazing.The only problem is: the walls of the rooms are thin, we could hear the doors slamming at night when the other guests returned in their rooms.read moreread less - Matija Krulic 9/04/2020Clean rooms, excellent location (close to city center), friendly staff.read moreread less919rhiab 12/20/2021Everything was perfect !

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 less
- A S 4/04/2020Schönes Hotel direkt in der Innenstadt von Galway. Saubere und moderne Zimmer. Sehr schönes Bad mit Glasdusche und Glastür. Parken ist im Parkhaus möglich wo man beim auschecken eine Rabattkarte bekommt, sehr nett und macht auch einiges am Preis aus.Die Mitarbeiter an der Rezeption sind freundlich und Hilfsbereit. Direkt am Eingang befindet sich zur Zeit eine Baustelle. Da soll eine neue Bar entstehen. Den Lärm merkt man jedoch kaum.read moreread lessQ4966ZBpatriciac 9/20/2020Patricia colton Excellent location

Very much recommend a stay here.read moreread lessolive t 3/15/2022weekend away staff at this hotel are excellent, friendly and professional. Saoirse very friendly, helpful and managed the breakfast time very well. Night staff in bar also excellent and friendly. Staff at this hotel are a real bonus. Decor in bar/restaurant is lovely with kind of boho retro vibe. Hotel rooms are quite small. bed linen, duvet and pillows are a dream. bathroom a bit of a let down - no bath, fixture hanging off wall and I wouldn't be a fan of the opaque door that you couldn't actually close and didn't afford any privacy. Tea tray needs a bit of attention- very poor selection of tea/coffee etc, no biscuits and those awful jiggers of UHT milk. . it was a lovely touch to have prosecco and little chocs in the room - a lovely welcome. Hotel lovely and quietread moreread less
