“Good location”

My husband and I stayed here for a night on our recent 10 day trip to Ireland in March 2011. It was located right next to lots of shops, pubs, and things to see, however, the parking garage where they have discounted parking was quite a distance away and was not helpful for people with suitcases. The breakfast in the morning was nice and made the price worth it. The room was large and we had an extra twin bed in the room beside our queen sized bed. The beds weren't that comfortable but it was ok for one night. We definitely could hear other people in other rooms but it wasn't too bad. We probably would look for someplace else next time we went but it was ok.

“Home Away From Home”

I studied abroad at NUI in Galway. It had become my second home. I went back to visit all my friends there and choose the Imperial Hotel for its location. It was a great hotel and we had good view of Eyre Square. The room was large and it was very convenient that breakfast was served until almost noon. Hopefully, I will be going back yearly.

“Disappointed”

Check-in and check-out was met by an unwelcoming woman at the front desk. Room was a good size and clean. However, the noise at night was too much. Construction in the hotel was loud and started early in the morning. Some hallway lights worked, some did not.

“Not perfect but not to shabby”

I was rather amazed at the number of people who where staying in the hotel. From the outside, it doesn't seem like it could possibly hold that many people. Overall it was perfect for myself and my boyfriend. If you wanted your room clean then hang the sign on your door. If not, turn the sign around and hang it on your door. Our bed was nice and comfy. If I needed help with something I can ask the front desk and depending on who's servicing, you would get all the help you can possibly need. One manager in particular, and I forgot his name, was quite helpful and friendly at that. He diserves a raise. The free 'continental' breakfast could use a little work, but hey, it was free and anything free taste good. Also, being in the heart of everything wasn't so bad either. Right around the corner are the shops, pubs, and restaurants. Perfect location. Overall, I definately recommend this hotel if you're planning a visit to Galway.

Traveler's tip
We fell in love with this great little restaurant called Druid Lane. It's in the Quay if I'm correct. It's around the corner from the hotel, you just keep walking down past the shops, hippie street performers, and the happy, drunk people and you'll find it. It's small but cozy, and the food is absolutely great. The service was personal and friendly. I recommend the mussels, thai fish cakes, and the chicken (although I forgot what exactly the dish is called but it was gooooood).
