I didn’t rate the bar and restaurant very highly, the food was average and service could have been better. It was difficult to know whether there was table service or whether it was expected that meals be ordered at the bar. Overall not a very comfortable place for a solo traveller.

The hotel is in a great location to access all Galway has to offer and public transportation. The hotel is modern and near many dining options. Also 2 things the have that may seem minor but that i sadly rarely see in hotels but always want: 1) true blackout curtains that overlap, and 2) a light in the wardrobe. I would absolutely stay here again.

Safety concerns and accommodations not great…disap
Front desk was friendly. Room not so great. First night one of the 2 of us got to shower then there was no water pressure. Like drops coming from the sink and 0 from the shower. TV got 5 channels?!?! Night number 2 we had a drunk person knocking on our door at 3 am…concerning. The door to get to the rooms is connected to the bar area and there is no key needed to get into that door that leads to the hallway to the rooms!!! For $300 a night very very disappointed.

Although the restaurant-bar service, food, etc.,was wonderful,as well as the breakfast service, my room was a bit cramped and had a constant smell of cooking odors wafting in from somewhere. The mattress was a bit firm too. Otherwise, a clean hotel and very well located!

I thought that the staff were very friendly and helpful, and that the restaurant and breakfast facilities were gorgeous, but that the room itself was very small and the parking is non existent. The location is fantastic, but the rooms themselves are very utilitarian.

Room needed a major renovation (I think the pictures online were of a newly renovated room but we were placed in an outdated one). Seemed clean, just very old. No AC but we were fine with the provided fan. Great location next door to the train station.

Overall, the hotel was good for our purposes. The room was ok—a bit dated and small, especially the bathroom. The sink didn’t drain well and faucets were old, etc. The restaurant and bar aesthetically was my favorite part of the hotel. I’d stay again, but I’d look for a bigger room. Great location. Across the street from a market and great pub, with good food. Central location which made it very easy to get around.
