Harbour Hotel

Harbour Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Excellent location for our 4 day stay in Galway. Easy walking distance to town and the train station. The upside is our area is very quiet at night when compared to staying right in town. The bar has excellent drinks and wonderful snacks. They also provided water every day. 10/10 we will stay here again on our next visit to Galway."

Nox Hotel

Nox Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"We had a very nice two night stay. The hotel was very clean, had plenty of parking, and was less than a ten minute cab ride to the Latin Quarter. Taxis were cheaper than parking. For us the best value was the breakfast buffet. Very well prepared and appointed. Eggs, meats, breads, juices, coffee, fruit, etc..all very fresh and only 12 euros. Easily $25 at a breakfast restaurant and the quality was just as good. Nice little bar that stays open until 3:00 am if you want a night cap and their prices are beyond reasonable. The only down side was it was a bit noisy outside with traffic noise, but not unbearable. I believe we paid about $400 euros for two nights. We considered it a great value. Ask for a fan if it is a little warm."

"The staff were excellent! Very helpful with any questions we had. Location is perfect for walking around town and to meet up with any tours. Walls are thin so it can be noisy. There’s no TV service. A few local channels, that’s it."

Leonardo Hotel Galway

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed for two nights. The location is perfect to be in all of the action. The Spanish Arch is literally across the street. And it nestles along the river. The attached parking garage is ideal and the validate for a discount. (Two nights was 24 EU). The room was comfortable and the A/C much appreciated. The front desk was super helpful. We did the breakfast the morning we checked out. It was okay. Nothing too exciting. But, if you are wanted the authentic full Irish breakfast then here you go! We really appreciated being in the perfect spot to walk around and enjoy all the pubs and restaurants. Would definitely stay here on our next Galway visit!!"
