The Residence Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This boutique hotel is in a wonderful location, looking down on bustling Quay St. Our room was well appointed, with a unique and tasteful design. Staff was very helpful. We felt like we were in the true heart of Galway, with dining, shopping, and attractions all right below our room. We really loved our stay and wish we could have been there for more than 2 nights."

The Galmont

"Great property, lovely staff, delicious breakfast. Parking was very convenient - underground parking lot with elevator to reach the lobby, take your ticket to reception for validation to receive the parking discount. Something to keep in mind: this is a large property - we had to walk down several long hallways and take 2 elevators to reach our room. If that's an issue for you, give reception a heads up for room accommodation preferences."
