A Galway Landmark Since 1852
Victoria Hotel has been welcoming guests to Galway for over 170 years. Originally established during the Victorian era, the hotel has evolved through careful restoration and thoughtful refurbishment while retaining the character and charm that make it a recognised part of the city's heritage. Today, every detail — from the boutique-styled rooms to the warm lobby — reflects a balance of period elegance and modern comfort.
In the Heart of the City
Our location beside Eyre Square places you at the centre of everything Galway has to offer. Step outside and you're moments from the cobblestone streets of the Latin Quarter, the buskers and boutiques of Shop Street, and the waterfront path that leads to the Spanish Arch. Galway's bus and train stations are a two-minute walk away, making day trips to the Cliffs of Moher, Connemara, and the Aran Islands simple to arrange. For drivers, discounted parking is available at Q-Park Eyre Square — just ask at reception for details.
Dining at Queen Street Restaurant & Bar
You don't need to leave the hotel to enjoy some of the best food in the city. Our on-site Queen Street Restaurant & Bar serves locally sourced dishes with a modern Irish twist, complemented by craft cocktails and a carefully chosen wine list. From a leisurely breakfast to a late-evening bite, Queen Street is a destination in its own right — popular with locals and guests alike.
What to Expect During Your Stay
Every room at Victoria Hotel comes equipped with complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi, flat-screen TV, tea and coffee making facilities, and an en-suite bathroom with toiletries and fluffy towels. A full Irish and continental breakfast is included with every booking, served each morning from 7:30am. Our reception team is available around the clock to help with restaurant reservations, tour bookings, luggage storage, and anything else you need to make the most of your time in Galway.
Whether you're planning a Galway Races getaway, a family holiday on the Wild Atlantic Way, or a quiet midweek break, Victoria Hotel is your home in the west of Ireland. Browse our latest offers or explore our rooms to find the perfect fit.
