Great location

Room was great, excellent location and would definitely recommend for that reason. Would not recommend the breakfast - it left a lot to be desired and there’s a number of great places to eat around

The room was quite small but clean and comfortable. Luckily I did not have to pull my layout to do work as there was very little room to do so. The breakfast was great and the staff were great!!

Special hotel in the middle of everything

Everything about this space is wonderful. It is close to everything in the area and the staff was always so helpful in giving suggestions or telling us about points of interest. It was always so nice to start the day off with a light breakfast and to come back in the afternoon after exploring to cookies and tea. We would definitely stay here again.

Room was spacious and clean. Bed was comfy and the water pressure in the shower was the best! Only complaint was the lack of air flow within the room - need a fan or a way of turning down the room temp.

This hotel was excellent. It was in the perfect location to the Latin quarter. The staff was amazing. The breakfast was great and the shower had the best water pressure. I will stay here again next time I’m in Galway.

Excellent stay overall

Fantastic stay. We had a great time. Everyone was wonderful. The only negative is the access to the building via the front door is not suitable for people with mobility issues. There is an exit via the back door. This is not accessible to enter.
