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 colored shops and restaurants.

Sights in Galway include its cathedral and city museum which has 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.

    I loved the hop on and off tour bus which we took up to salthill and back. The whole journey was narated, history unfolded I loved the traditional music in Taffees. We didn't have a bad meal wherever went . The architecture and history of galway is both beautiful and amazing. Our hotel was right next to the main train and bus station so ready access to main routes to airports and ferries etc. Local buses make getting around Galway very easy

    We prefered to eat and drink in the West End and stayed clear of Shop Street other than when we hit the artists market where we could get locally made stuff. We had great food at Universal and grabbed drinks at the Bierhaus. We listened to fabulous music at the Crane- go for the experience (go upstairs) if nothing else! If you want to go to the Aran Islands, I recommend the Aran Island Ferries. They leave right from Galway Docks and take you to Inishmore. You get about 4 hours on the island (enough to take a horse and cart (a must!) to Dun Aonghasa and back but not much else) then it picks you up and returns via the Cliffs of Mohr. If you want longer or want a different island you'll have to go to one of the other ports (Doolin or Rossaveel) that will take you a while to get to. The weather was incredible, so we were outside the whole time and walked on the promendade to Salthill each night. We didn't have a car- the traffic was pretty heavy, so I was very glad we were on foot. If you do have a car, I would recommend parking at wherever you are staying and walking everywhere else if possible. If we had more time we would have ventured to Spiddal and to Connemara National Park, but we felt we had enough time to see Galway itself.

    The Stop is probably the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in. I got a personal tour the moment I stepped in, and the staff continued to be personable and helpful throughout my stay. Breakfast was incredible, the room clean, quiet, and comfortable, the furnishings unique, and the simple comfort of having tea and cookies to come back to at the end of the night was such a joy. The owners put care into every inch of the property and guest experience. I’d fly back to Ireland just to stay here again (and I’m only mostly joking).

    Great vibe to the place. Definitely the upper end when it comes to a typical hostel. I was in Ireland with my daughter. The staff upgraded us from a room with two single beds to two rooms with a shared bathroom which was extremely nice of them to do. Lot's of twenty something young people hanging out. Easy walk down the street to coffee shops and a few dining spots. Galway seems to be a pretty young city with lots of college and mid-twenties people. Would like to have stayed longer but more to see

    The heated pool and spa area was so great- just what we needed after a long day of travel. The decor is great around the hotel. The room well designed- the Bluetooth speaker and robes were a welcome touch. The bed was very comfortable and cosy (note we upgraded to a king size bed which was 2 beds pushed together. Not an issue for us but might be for some people). Breakfast was delicious and staff so friendly. Location is close to the city center while avoiding the noise!

    Our family room was large enough to accommodate all of us, but space was a bit limited overall. The city center is within walking distance and breakfast alternatives and dinner options are even closer, so the location is great. The breakfast served at the hotel is standard, good but not outstanding. The room was spotlessly clean and the staff friendly and helpful.
