This hotel was great for what we needed! Walking distance to everything, multiple beds, hostess was so friendly. Room was quiet and clean, only down side was bed and pillows were not very comfortable. Doable for what we wanted though. Parking included was the draw for us.

The hotel was good. Its located in an excellent area, close to countless pubs, restaurants and retail outlets. It was within walking distance to everything we wanted to see and do in Galway. It was also a very short walk to and from the bus station that brought us to and from Dublin. Our room was nice. There was no remote for the TV in the room but a quick call to the front desk and someone came up quickly with a remote. The walls are quite thin, so if you have someone beside you, youll hear conversations etc. Also youll hear everything going on in the hallways. We were there for the Halloween weekend and usually everything got quiet around 10pm. The breakfast at the restaurant was excellent and a fair price. I think this hotel was overpriced. It cost us $400 Cdn per night which is what youd pay for a pretty nice hotel room in Manhattan NYC. That being said, the weekend we were there and the proximity to all the Galway action were/are the reasons people are willing to pay and the hotel is able to charge so much. If we came back, we would probably look at other places to stay, but if they were comparable, we'd stay at the Western again.

It's a nice hotel. The room was small, but i wasn't staying long so it was fine. Its nice that it was walking distance from shops and restaurants. They have parking so that was definitely a plus.

The beds and bedding were uncomfortable. The room was hot and with no fan in the bathroom the room got damp. We had to leave the window open and could hear people putting trash into the dumpster multiple times at night. Anytime someone upstairs moved the whole room shook. They did not provide lotion or conditioner.

We loved the Western. The location was amazing. We walked to all the shopping, attractions and pubs. Our room had amazing views and was spacious and comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful. Our last night we spent in the hotel pub and they had the most amazing musicians playing and singing. We really enjoyed this and wanted to stay longer. We hope to stay here again someday. Thank you for such a great time!!!

The hotel was in walking distance to the fun in Gallway. It has a parking garage underneath that was a little tricky but the attendants helped with moving the cars. Best part was coming upon a jam session in the bar of local music!
