Great hotel, 15 to 20 minute walk in the city. Car park just outside so convenient if you're coming by car. Very nicely decorated and we appreciated the coffee machine!

Had a lively restaurant on the first floor that smelled delicious. Did not eat there, so cannot comment on the food. A little confusing on how to actually enter the hotel part of the building. Room was clean and comfortable.

All around great stay!

Loved the Huntsmann Inn, lots to do nearby but not in city-center so away from the madness. Great restaurant and bar on the bottom floor as well!

I loved my time at the Huntsman. It was just what I needed after walking around Galway all day. The day I arrived they were able to get me a reservation at the restaurant and I had THE BEST experience there. Great food, great drinks and great service. Very safe and very comfortable.

We had a great stay. Our only complaint, at no fault of the staff or property, was that due to the location, it was a bit noisy as traffic passed by during the night. Otherwise it was great!

Best stay in Galway

We picked them from a mere Google search, and booked for two nights. The room was so clean & nice. When our Valentines evening stay canceled on us, they managed to keep us in our same room for an additional night. Our room was quickly serviced each morning when we went down to breakfast, and the staff was very friendly.
