Eyre Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Our visit was wonderful The staff was terrific and helpful. Our two rooms were grand. The location is especially well suited for getting from the train station or bus made sightseeing easy. It is near Eyre Square, across from eateries, and a nifty (short) stroll from everything. It is a perfect spot to stay in Galway. We wouldn’t book any other hotel !!!!"

The Snug Townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful experience at Snug. Perfect location, directly across from the Quays bar and restaurant, right in the Latin quarter and a fun environment. Our room was pretty quiet but I always use ear plugs. The man at the reception was so friendly and helpful. Great experience and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again!"
