Galway Bay Sea View Apartments
Place was great - spotless, comfortable, convenient. The only knock we had was that the washing machine didn’t work. Would recommend to anyone visiting Galway.

Leonardo Hotel Galway
The hotel was in. A great spot with views of the Spanish arch and the bay. It is right at the beginning of the Latin district. The hotel was clean and the staff was great. The water pressure in the shower was a low.

Nox Hotel
The room was nice but you can hear a bit of noise, not too much but I am comparing it to a hotel in Dublin. The restaurant was very nice, it as walkable as near Dublin but the hotel is well suited for a night’s stay!!

The Galmont
The staff are very friendly and helpful. One staff printed out a list of her favorite things to do in the area. That was helpful and great insight. The room was clean and nice.

The Snug Townhouse
They weren’t kidding when they named it the SNUG Townhouse. The room is SMALL. As wide as the bed and then just a bit longer.
