Top Galway Hotel Reviews

Eyre Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location, wonderful staff."

Leonardo Hotel Galway

10/10 Excellent

"Right by the water and the pubs. Really good area. We saw dolphins in the harbor. The only concern is how tight the parking garage is. The smallest turns we've ever seen and we've driven around Europe. Everyone had to back up several times to make the turns around the corners. Nice breakfast."

Connemara Coast Hotel

8/10 Good

"Lovely hotel in a beautiful setting. Fantastic breakfast and restaurant. Not all staff understood requests made or could give information about the area."

Galway Bay Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I would stay here again with my family or just my husband and I. It’s great"

Flannery's Hotel Galway

10/10 Excellent

"Very happy with our stay here. Would recommend"

"A great hotel and a perfect location. Wish we had known the room did not have windows."

Clayton Hotel Galway

8/10 Good

"Very helpful staff, excellent bar tender"

8/10 Good

"Great hotel, good to know that you need to have your key handy to get to your room and you need to leave it in the slot to keep your light on"
