Fine hotel, just a bit dingy and dated
Perfectly fine hotel, a little dingy and old/gloomy but works - bit expensive for what you get

Eyre Square Short Stay
A very good option for a short stay in the city centre; this place is no-frills but everything is clean and comfy and it’s good value for the incredibly convenient location.
The staff are very friendly which always helps

Quaint hotel in a great location
Quaint renovated hotel nicely located in the center of Galway. Street parking only, which was relatively easy to find and free overnight from 6pm to 8am. Friendly and helpful checkin staff. Walkable to all the top attractions and main drag. Lots of good restaurants nearby

Good sleep!
One night, just to sleep. Small room, but all needed was around. Staff was very friendly, they helped us taking care of our bags the next day, and they were very communicative before our check in, very responsive. Location was very convenient close to the train and to the bar/restaurants area. All in walking distance.

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.
