Top Lough Atalia Hotel Reviews

Radisson RED Galway

8/10 Good

"At 07,30 all food out was almost stale and cold, but hotel is very good"

The Western Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Ideal location"

The Snug Townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic place to stay in the centre of everything. Staff let us check in early and were very helpful with recommendations to do and places to eat. Most definitely will return ASAP ☺️"

The Galmont

8/10 Good

"There is a pool and extensive workout facility - offsite. The toilet in our room did not flush properly - took a random number - between 2 and 4 - to get it to work. We made the hotel aware of the issue on checkout. Breakfast was reasonably priced for the selection and we availed ourselves of it all 3 days we stayed - without becoming tired of the variety. The location is quite near the bus and train station - selection criteria for us. The view of the lake was lovely and tranquil. The walk to the town for food and shopping and bar hopping was quite reasonable. They were redoing the grouting in the main lobby while we were there. Upgraded the tired appearance. If the maintenance staff could tour the property - ex: no knob to exit the last women's bathroom stall in the lobby should be noted and fixed. And the vanity lights did not match in our room (one white light, one yellow light) in addition to the poorly flushing toilet noted above... The hotel appears to be trying to upgrade and they are nearly there. A bit more attention to physical maintenance and a bit more quality control for housekeeping (no top sheet on the bed (asked and handed to us) - will get them a 4 star rating."

The Lane - Boutique Residence

8/10 Good

"Very good service (by waiting for me off the late Expressway Bus from Shannon Airport) and beautifully furnished room. I like the security involving the room key to get through the gate and the front door of the hotel. The only issue being the lack of a seat and table, with guests having to sit on the mattress, which is now showing signs of wear. Located close to the bus and railway stations, as well as nearby bars and cafes for breakfast."

Eyre Square Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location in the centre of town. Very helpful staff"

Leonardo Hotel Galway

10/10 Excellent

"Best location near Spanish arch and start of Latin quarter. Great breakfast, parking next door."

Flannery's Hotel Galway

10/10 Excellent

"A little gem hidden in the hills!"

Queen Street Place

8/10 Good

"Basic but clean and modern accommodation. Perfect for one night business trip where little time in the room. Very compact."
