Connemara Coast Hotel
4.3/5110 Reviews
What a lovely location, a gorgeous hotel and the swimming pool was great with the added bonus of an outside hot tub overlooking the sea. My room was 631 with a large king bed, desks, adequate bathroom with bath and shower, seats with table, desk and TV and all the usual facilities in a hotel room. No sockets by the bed though which is something all hotels need to have now but that was the only criticism of the room. Staff where lovely, helpful and friendly although I give 4 stars as check-in didnt happen for 10 minutes due to no staff being at the reception, no idea why but it got sorted OK. The hotel is clean, the room was clean, well presented and very welcoming. I had breakfast which was the normal cooked breakfast buffet, toasts, pancakes, breads, cereals, tea or coffee, juices with plenty of seating options and a view of the sea. The staff were great, the food was good and the atmosphere relaxed. The view gives you a great start to the day. I used the pool which was great. Some families there with kids, a swimming lane, working steam room, sauna and heated jacuzzi. The outside hottub is amazing. It is a must do at this hotel. It was raiing on my stay so the outside tennis court and kids play area werent being used but its worth a mention that they have these. Location feels remote but its only 5-10 minutes from Salthill and Galway by car. There is a petrol station beside the hotel on the main road and a small village. I guess you access the hotel by car, taxi or bus.
The Connacht Hotel

Galway City Hostel - Solo Traveller Hostel
4.4/544 Reviews
The hostel was easy to spot on the corner of the Square when i got off the bus at the station and it was a warm welcome and efficient check in to a clean and airy room with a view onto the corner of Ayre Square. The beds were comfy enough and the bathrooms were clean. I appreciated the breakfast, which was simple but ample, and with a slight local twist. The atmosphere was good in the hostel throughout my 3 days there, and this is in part due to work of the staff. I'd particularly like to mention Tom, who was always friendly and provided good tips and suggestions when asked. The only drawback would come if you are a light sleeper. It's in a great location but remember it's a hostel in Galway right above a bar. It does get quiet for a few hours before daybreak at least. I did feel tired after 3 nights. I would go back though, but maybe for one or two night next time!
Nox Hotel Galway
4.3/5112 Reviews
Absolutely fantastic time. The room was very spacious, the bed was really big and comfortable too. Jesus at the restaurant was very friendly. Nothing was too much trouble for him. Plenty parking spaces. Taxi into town between 7-10euro. I would definitely recommend getting the breakfast, they have fantastic choices, everything was delicious . I will definitely come back to this hotel. Galway is absolutely amazing too, maybe a 15min walk into centre, but taxi was cheap so that's how we travelled.
Hyde Hotel
4.2/5107 Reviews
We had a very nice time at the Hyde Hotel in Galway. It is very centrally located which was helpful for anyone without a car. It was also just a 3 minute walk from the train station, which was very convenient. All the staff was very helpful, gave us recommendations on things to do and places to eat. We got the Bed and Breakfast option, and it was definitely worth it. Their breakfast was delicious, we especially liked the pancakes. Our only slight disappointment was that our room did not have A/C, but the window did open to get fresh air and they had a fan in our room which helped. We would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Galway.
Kinlay Hostel Eyre Square
4.4/547 Reviews
I have been staying at this hostel since December 22nd, and everything has been very nice, good and clean rooms with nice bunks and the hostel includes a good breakfast. Then at 02:40 on December 27th four young drunk men came bursting into my room with laughter and noise and turned on all the lights, they had obviously been out partying but they did not stop partying when they entered the room, and they used the toilets all the time and made a lot of noise. I became quite upset about this, but I was concerned for my safety if I said anything, so I left the room for over an hour, when I came back to the room those four drunk men were snoring and breathing heavily so I could not get any sleep for the rest of the night. The following day I complained to the reception about this inconsideration. Jessica, the manager of the hostel took matters into her own hands and told me she would make a note about those men for the future. Jessica also put me into a new room where I would be alone for my last night at the hostel so I could sleep well without anybody disturbing me. This is what I call good service and Jessica went beyond her duties to compensate me for this inconvenience and that should be rewarded.
Leonardo Hotel Galway
4.3/5127 Reviews
Perfect Central Hotel 17 of us, yes Seventeen went for a three night stay at Jurys Inn this past weekend. Amazing service. Staff are so welcoming and under pressure as such a busy place. Nothing was too much trouble. Sorry we don't have his name, but a very tall man from California served the majority of us on arrival and was delightful. Explained that our rooms would not be cleaned daily as there was a staff shortage. None of us were concerned about this and all got daily clean towels and loo roll. Breakfast is very good for those who enjoy a cooked breakfast, which we all did. As we were all from UK €14.00 is expensive for a breakfast but it's certainly cheaper than elsewhere as we experienced by searching for somewhere else on our second day. We went in the peak time of an Oyster festival and agreed we would all return when it's less busy at the hotel and possibly cheaper. Thank you Jurys Inn for the fans for the rooms too.
Loughrea Hotel & Spa
4.1/576 Reviews
We stayed for a family wedding, the room was fine, top floor with good views over to the lough and access to the rooftop terrace bar. The bed was probably one of the most comfortable I have ever slept in, the room very well equipped but no safe so be prepared to keep your valuables on you. Staff were all very professional, the wedding went well, the food was great, the salmon melted in your mouth, Big car park, plenty of room, easy walk into the town and lough. Definitely consider staying again if we were in the area.
Eyre Square Hotel
3.8/5107 Reviews
The hotel is right next to the bus station, the El Square is just across the road, there is a visitor center across the road, and there is a question to ask directly. We are going to Asford Castle the next day. The staff at the visitor center helped us check the bus time and booked a taxi for us. The hotel's facilities are very distinctive, the interior is old-fashioned, the beds are old, similar to our beds of the 780s, but very clean. The entire hotel room is partially filled with the smell of disinfectant. The hotel breakfast was delicious and the rest were average.
Shearwater Hotel & Spa
4.2/569 Reviews
This is a wonderful Hotel. We are getting married and had our reception dinner there as well as put family up there for the night. The service, staff, food and facilities were great. Will most certainly recommend this place to anyone.
