Hotel was easy to find and had plenty of parking. Room was beautiful and bed was comfortable. Staff very friendly & helpful! Food tasty, beers cold. Lovely hotel.
Great room, clean and well maintained.
Bar and restaurant were great!
Breakfast was excellent, could have been better staffed considering there was a bus tour there.
Great location,
We loved it here, the bar, food, the room was excellent. Would highly recommend! Staff were friendly and happy to help. My birthday treats were a lovely surprise too!
One of the better hotels I’ve ever stayed in. The shower head was a rainful, but actually with enough pressure to wash your hair which is a rarity. The bed was also incredibly comfortable as well as the pillows. The air conditioning was top notch as well. Definitely would stay again and highly recommend
We enjoyed our stay. Parking was convenient and easily accessible. Our room was clean and comfortable. The dining was ok at Pins, nothing special. Over all, would stay again and would recommend to a friend.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
Breakfast was outstanding. The hotel rooms had nice updated bathrooms, but to general this felt more like a motel 6 than a unique boutique hotel.
We needed a room for the night so could visit Galway in the morning. Room was Clean and the staff was excellent throughout our stay. Breakfast was actually amazing and we were pleasantly surprised. Would recommend if you're ok with staying a bit out of the city centre. Free parking included !
Very helpful staff in both the hotel and restaurant, and we loved the room! Also, even though we weren't traveling with a dog, the warm welcome to dogs was wonderful.
The property is located in Barna, enough of a distance from Galway centre that you would have to plane your trip to avoid traffic.
The restaurant and lounge area was spacious and staff were very helpful and friendly. The food was very good.
The pier is only a short walk away and the pub kitty-corner , O’Donnely’s was a more rustic local pub that was great for chatting with locals.
The room was beautifully appointed and clean and the shower was awesome. If you are not wanting to be in downtown Galway futile this spot is fantastic.
