9/10 Wonderful! (1,000 reviews)

Large family run hotel near a business park in Claregalway (about 20 minutes drive to Galway). Property seems to be undergoing renovations. We had a very large family room for our 3 night stay but found the absence of a fridge strange given obvious recent upgrades to otherwise good standard. The bathroom was also unusual with a heavy fire door and an older shower in bath set up. Carpet in room wasn’t vacuumed during our stay. There is a health club on site (pool/ gym etc) available to guests which is a good inclusion. Parking on site was also good.

This hotel was excellent. It was in the perfect location to the Latin quarter. The staff was amazing. The breakfast was great and the shower had the best water pressure. I will stay here again next time I’m in Galway.
