I have stayed here multiple times as it is only a block from the coach station. Staff was very helpful and the rate was reasonable for what you get in return.

Small hotel near everything! Walkable to all pubs/shops and the train station is 2 min walk. No added extras like a gym… and front desk closes at 9 but the rooms are clean and updated.

The bed was too narrow. The pillowes too thick. Easy to reach the city center and facilities: bus stop. Train station. Many restautants. The meeting point for tours. after all a good accomodation

Raj on reception was exceptional. He went above and beyond for us. Such a lovely, warm welcome and nothing was too much trouble. He even enquired the next day about my father who was in Galway for a medical procedure. Great asset to the hotel.

It was very close to the train station. Our tour pickup spot was minutes away. The area around is so walkable. It was such a perfect location. The hotel itself was super cute. The room was spacious enough for us to move around. The bathroom was a decent size. It had character. We loved it! There were so many food places right there. Check in and check out was seamless.

I had a snug room, perfect for one person i would say, cosy for two. Absolutely spotless, comfy beds, little bit of noise hearing doors from other rooms so if a light sleeper may need ear plugs if easily disturbed. So so clean, friendly staff. Hotel is positioned between coach station and rail station it is absolutely perfect where it is, right in the heart of Galway. Would highly recommend.

The property was central and walkable. The room was so small and the bed pushed up against the wall. No were to put cases and sounded like a washing machine got turned on very early. The front deft staff do t start until 9:00. We checked out at 8am but left glasses on the room. Came back within minute but front staff were not on duty until 9am. We had to hang around for an hour. Very frustrating. Wouldn’t return to this property. Overpriced and under serviced.

The good, Fantastic location and altough they don’t have private parking , the city parking is a few minutes away with a discounted rate, the check in and check out process was quick and easy, and the pillows and the bed were so so comfortable. The bad, strange room layout, the mirror is up high and at an angle so your neck gets cramped when trying to get ready, we seen a few bugs on the hardwood floor, could very well have been ones we brought in with our shoes form the outside , but it made me squirmish and would have been nice to be supplied with some disposable slippers as the run to the loo at night was cold
