FAQs about hotels in Galway








Cracking City of Craic

Welcoming Galway is a small city with fantastic nightlife and an infectious atmosphere. Outside of the Galway Arts Festival, there’s still plenty of live music in the Irish pubs to get the party started.

The Galway Races at Ballybrit Race Course west of Galway Airport attract a good crowd, as does Eyre Square, a green space with flags of previous ruling families who gave it its nickname - City of Tribes. To the south are cobbled streets housing brightly coloured shops and restaurants.

Sights in Galway include its cathedral and city museum which offers an interesting insight into the history of the city and Ireland. Lynch’s Castle is the last remaining 17th-century merchant house, and the Spanish Arch is a small section of city walls by the Corrib River, linking Galway Bay to huge Loch Corrib. Where river and ocean meet is Claddagh Park, a great spot for a picnic with a view.

Further around the coast is Salthill Promenade, home to Atlantaquaria, Ireland’s national aquarium, focussing on sealife off Irish shores. It’s a Christmas Day tradition to jump from Blackrock Diving Tower nearby into the icy Atlantic Ocean, though you may well spot some wag giving it a go.

Booking.com has an excellent range of Galway hotels, apartments and B&Bs to complete your stay.

    Heard for many years that Galway is a beautiful romantic place and always wanted to go there. Now I've been, and I won't be going back. Average looking place, nothing to really do, everything is very expensive and overpriced, especially the food. Some of the buildings are kinda cool, but the famous landmark road with the painted houses is literally 3 houses painted a colour and you will need to photoshop a bit of contrast to your photo afterwards!

    Galway, although a city, feels more like a town with its cobblestone streets and square. There was plenty to see and do in Galway but it also allowed for excursions that were shorter in length. Bus, train, and tour companies were all close together which was extremely convenient.

    Galway is perfect for a 1-day-stroll, but what really makes staying in Galway perfect or a must is what’s around Galway: cliffs of Moher, Aaran islands & Connemara. Those attractions/landscapes are what’s making Galway worth it. And for Galway itself it’s the authentic pubs, the compact city where you can reach the „beach“ within 20 mins.

    Galway Isa beautiful small city on the coast with much to do. The Latin Quarter is like what Nashville used to be before the big corporations took it over. You can walk down the street and hear music coming out of every pub door. It’s also a good staging point for trips into the countryside. The Cliffs of Moher sit about 1.5 hours away through the Burren, where you can see a very interesting environment and (I think), the oldest megalithic structure in Ireland. Locals recommended the An Púcán pub and we enjoyed the food and atmosphere.

    The staff was incredible - my mom is new to traveling and older, and they treated her with such kindness and care. Answered all her questions, and took care of her every need. Location was also phenomenal. Exactly where you would want to be. It is not the grand hotel experience that you might expect with a 4 star hotel in the sense it is smaller and boutique, but by far one of the best stays of our trip to Ireland. Amazing ambiance and local feel. Wonderful staff. Comfy and clean. Would recommend to anyone and will stay again!

    It is very close to the city centre. I was warmly received by the woman at the reception desk. I always judge a country or hotel from the point of entrance/reception desk. The hotel environment- room, corridors, canteen kitchen, and toilet, hotel walls, and ceiling meet the quality and health and safety standards of HSA. Fresh and non-fresh food storage also meets food safety standards as required by the Irish and EU regulations. Healthy surrounding environment. It is like a home, very clean and comfortable.

    A very clean, well appointed B&B, with all the amenties, in a quiet residential neighborhood. Just feet from a bus stop for three main city routes to downtown Galway. Ireland is a country where B&B's are the main place to stay if you want to be by the sights. Each B&B has it own whimsy with the host or hostess representing a large part. Marie was our hostess and was a good part of helping us get the most out of our visit to Galway.

    A beautiful 200 year old hotel - well renovated. The included breakfast was the best we had on our two week trip to Ireland. The location was great. The booking.com rate was fantastic. Our room was small, the beds were on rollers and it was hot with no ventilation. Avoid rooms between 325-328 - they are in an odd spot of the building and no breeze through the small window.

    The rooms are small, but comfortable and clear. The shared kitchen facilities are also great, which made breakfast prep quite a bit easier. It's a nice, quiet location outside of the city center. We've stayed at other dorms in Ireland, but this is the best one we stayed in by far, as this one was quiet and great for sleeping after long days of travel, tours, and hiking.

Breakfast was delicious and so healthy. I have traveled extensively in Ireland but the Hyde experience was the best to date. I will definitely come back whenever I visit Galway.
