The staff are friendly and the room was a renovated one to a high standard and very comfortable and spotlessly clean.The breakfast is substantial but not clear if it is included in the price so will update after checkout.The restaurant was not open to guests the one night we considered eating in so cannot comment.Parking is in a nearby separately managed facility. It is fairly cheap at 8euro per day.The scrambled eggs are an atrocity so avoid. read less

Easy access to downtown pubs and restaurants.
In addition, hotel offers a great breakfast that was included with our booking. You get the choice of one hot AND one cold breakfast meal option from the menu. You won’t go away hungry.
They also validated parking so that we were able to park our car for free at the QPark just a block away.
Staff at the front desk was extremely friendly and helpful. They provided us with suggestions for places to go. Also, gladly printed out our covid test results that we needed for airport check-in.
Definitely would stay here again. read lessGood location, huge rooms!

But they have done work in the Bedrooms. They're lovely, spacious and spotless clean. The girl at Reception I think her name is Zoe was fantastic at her job and was so very helpful and nice with it, also the Barman that was there Friday and Saturday night November 8th/9th he was so good at his job and friendly . I would really recommend this Hotel as it is just around the corner from Train/Bus station and just a small walk from Eyre Square. Really enjoyed my stay here. read less

I booked a double room with breakfast included. The room was on the smaller side than some hotel rooms I have stayed in but none the less it ticked all the boxes. It was clean and comfortable and more importantly the bed was comfortable. We had no complaints about noise from the street or internally either. The breakfast was lovely and cooked freshly upon ordering. The hotel bar is so nice and a must visit. The decor is fabulous and so is the food and the staff are very friendly too. The location is excellent with it being just off Eyre Square, which makes it easily accessible to get to the Christmas Market and onto Shop street. We were both very impressed with the hotels refurbishment and would highly recommend it to friends and family. As with most hotels in Galway there is no onsite parking, however, there are some carparks nearby within walking distance of the hotel where you can safely park for the duration of your stay. As you are staying with the hotel it will be worth enquiring with them for a discount at the car park upon booking. read less
