Reviews and Ratings
My experience at the hotel exceeded my expectations. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the breakfast was great. However, the bright light outside made it difficult to sleep, and there was some noise from other guests being up in the middle of the night. The location next to a garage wasn't ideal.
The hotel offered a cozy stay with exceptionally comfortable rooms and a sauna-like warmth that was a welcome relief in the Irish climate. However, occasional noise disturbances were a downside. The location was convenient for accessing Galway City, but the surrounding industrial area could affect the view. The dining options were varied, but road noise was a potential disturbance.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The rooms were quiet and clean, spacious enough to relax in, and simply gorgeous. The service was top-notch, offering amenities like room service and car hire. The location was perfect, allowing me to be close to the city while enjoying a peaceful setting. The dining experience was excellent, with a great variety of options to choose from. Overall, a wonderful experience worth the price.
The hotel had a lovely set of rooms, though mine was very stuffy being close to the laundry room. The service was efficient and offered a range of amenities like room service and housekeeping. The location, just outside Galway City, was peaceful and pristine, perfect for exploring without the hustle. The dining experience was delightful with a variety of options, though limited desserts. Overall, a pleasant stay with minor inconveniences.
My stay at the hotel was wonderful! The rooms were amazing, very comfortable, and had everything we needed at hand. They were nice, spacious, and very child-friendly. Despite the slight inconvenience of not being able to keep the window open due to noise after turning off the heating, the rooms were lovely, clean, and provided a cozy atmosphere.
The hotel had lovely rooms with modern and comfortable reception area, but my room wasn't ready on arrival. The service was satisfactory with available room service, car hire, dry cleaning, and housekeeping. The location was buzzing but a bit cramped and confusing, although it is close to the Galway shopping center. Dining prices were considered high for continental breakfast, and the experience was lacking compared to other hotels. Overall, the stay was a mix of positives and negatives.
The hotel had a mixed experience with cozy rooms and attentive servicing, but the summer heat made it uncomfortable. The location offered easy access to both Galway city center and relaxing outdoor dining with some noise from nearby traffic. The dining options were delicious but lacked organization. Overall, a decent stay with some drawbacks to consider.
The hotel is nestled in a crisp contemporary surrounding but unfortunately located in a very ugly area next to a car dealership and highway. The rooms have an opening window but can be noisy due to air con pipes on the roof. The service offers room service, car hire, dry cleaning, housekeeping, laundry, and a welcome drink. The dining experience was mostly positive with reasonably priced options, although some items were criticized for their prices. The hotel is near the main road and local shopping center, convenient for walking to town but plagued by constant door opening due to tourist traffic.
The hotel is a bit far from the city center but still within walking distance to most places. The rooms were a bit dark in the morning but had great amenities like hair dryers and showers. However, we were allocated a disability access room instead of what we booked. The dining experience was decent, serving breakfast until 11 am on weekends, but nothing extraordinary. It's conveniently located close to the hospital with good access to buses, although it's not where we expected it to be. The staff were understanding and the price was reasonable.
The hotel had clean and nice rooms, but the noise from the busy lift and lack of toiletries were disappointing. The location was convenient with shopping centers nearby, but the industrial look was not very appealing.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were clean and big enough, but being beside the lift made for a noisy morning, and the lack of toiletries in the bathroom was disappointing. The location was convenient, only a short drive to the city centre, although the industrial surroundings reminded me more of a drive-thru. The dining experience had its flaws with self-service difficulties, but the selection and staff were excellent.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, with clean and warm rooms featuring private bathrooms. However, it was a bit inconvenient being on the lower level, and despite adjusting the thermostat, the room remained very warm. The service was satisfactory, but there were some minor issues with the facilities. The location was buzzing with a diverse mix of tourists and locals, but it was slightly out of the city center.
The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with friendly staff in a great location, perfect for exploring the city. However, the view of the trash container and poor Wi-Fi signal can be off-putting. Value for money may vary.
My stay at the hotel was overall great. The rooms were comfortable and well-serviced, although it was a bit warm initially. The location was perfect, with free parking and easy access to Galway city center. The dining experience was enjoyable, offering a nice selection for breakfast. However, the noise levels in the dining room were a bit high at times.
As a lovely anniversary gift, our stay at the hotel had clean and comfortable rooms, though located somewhat oddly on the ground floor behind the toilets in the reception area. The rooms were well laid out and felt spacious, providing a cozy ambiance. However, the hotel lacks extra amenities like a pool or gym for its slightly higher price.
