Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff were very nice and the rooms were great. We were in a quiet room so the noise from the bar wasn’t too bad, but the walls were very thin, so the noise from other room(s) kept us up.

Disliked: Room comfort
Hi, all the room was nice size and comfortable, but with painting and decorating in the corridor outside my room there was noise and disruption, then when you look forward to a sleep in when your on a break, I was woken by a jackhammer outside my window this really was disappointing, would love to stay again with better conditions

Excellent place to stay
Excellent place to stay in Galway, right in the center, with a short five minute walk from the train station. We were told it could get a little loud due to their bar, however since we travelled in off-peak season we got a room in the back where it was super quiet, we did not hear anything.

Would recommend
The hotel receptionist was very welcoming. The service was quick and efficient. Our room was nice and big. It was perfect for our one night stay as it is located right on Eyre square. It was noisy which we had been told about by the receptionist but we were provided with earbuds to help with that. We were also left postcards on the bed which was a nice touch.

Room was small but very cosy, bed was very comfortable. The reception staff were so friendly and helpful. Only downside was the noise from the bar next door but we were told about this and knew it would be the case when we booked.

Loved our stay due to Niall‘s customer service
We had a wonderful stay. The bed was comfortable and room clean with all the necessary amenities. The hotel has a huge restaurant and Irish bar with many different rooms and 2 levels to accommodate all types of clientele! They had live music and the performances were amazing! The best part was the customer service provided with care, kindness, enthusiasm and pure happiness, always quick with help and a smile from their employee Niall, he was such a pleasure! Thank you Niall! :)
