Special hotel in the middle of everything

Everything about this space is wonderful. It is close to everything in the area and the staff was always so helpful in giving suggestions or telling us about points of interest. It was always so nice to start the day off with a light breakfast and to come back in the afternoon after exploring to cookies and tea. We would definitely stay here again.

Room was spacious and clean. Bed was comfy and the water pressure in the shower was the best! Only complaint was the lack of air flow within the room - need a fan or a way of turning down the room temp.

This hotel was excellent. It was in the perfect location to the Latin quarter. The staff was amazing. The breakfast was great and the shower had the best water pressure. I will stay here again next time I’m in Galway.

Excellent stay overall

Fantastic stay. We had a great time. Everyone was wonderful. The only negative is the access to the building via the front door is not suitable for people with mobility issues. There is an exit via the back door. This is not accessible to enter.

Was in a good area and gave a voucher which reduced the overnight parking lot from 29 euros to 11 euros. Bedroom and bathroom were clean and did the job for our one night stay. Reasonable rate would stay again.

Nice room. Quiet for a good night's sleep. Hotel staff were very pleasant. We enjoyed our stay. We wish we had been told about the discounted parking garage that's associated with the hotel before we checked in though. We had already paid to park somewhere else. Maybe listing it on the website or on Expedia or Google would help others.
