We loved the breakfast buffet- great variety of food and all super tasty! We found the rooms fair sized, but the area felt quite loud with the street beside, and the walls between rooms were VERY thin- we could hear our neighbors watching TV and people shutting doors, and found it hard to sleep because of it. We had a cleaning staff knock and immediately enter our room our first day there while we were in the middle of changing, which was unsettling and made us feel uncomfortable about leaving valuables in the room. No token of apology or any sort of action beyond a verbal apology was offered by the front desk staff. We enjoyed our time in Galway but will definitely stay elsewhere in the future!

There was a bath, but the taps didn’t work, so I could only shower. I had an executive king room and was disappointed as it was a lot smaller than I thought it would be

Very clean, very convenient to the shopping areas and dining but not immediately located within the shopping area, so guests should expect to walk a few blocks.

Great reception from Steve when we arrived! The location is perfect! Close to the train station and Citylink drop off! The rooms were clean, comfy and spacious. Our room was beautiful facing the marina. Galway is an amazing little place with lovely bars and live entertainment! Highly recommend this hotel for your stay!

Close to main city thoroughfare. Close to Aran Island ferry. Staff were pleasant. Lots of issues during first breakfast shift. Broken appliances, not all items ready or on table - inconsistent experience day to day. Highly expensive laundry service.
