Top County Galway Hotel Reviews

Galway Bay Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel with wonderful staff and facilities. Rooms could do with a bit of an update but they’re fine."

Radisson RED Galway

8/10 Good

"Some hits and misses. Check in check out were efficient. Free covered parking was great. Breakfast spread was decent although the varieties don’t change - so can be a challenge if you are staying longer. Room cleaning isn’t up to standard - one day was good another day was poor with water and tissue paper not replenished even though they ran out. There was a super friendly and helpful lady at breakfast - so full of energy … but I unfortunately did not note her name. Attended to any needs you may have which made you feel very welcomed at breakfast."

Flannery's Hotel Galway

10/10 Excellent

"Great spot - we needed to get to Dublin airport on final day of a great trip. We were 30 minutes from rental car drop off at DUB. This place is out on a sprawling property and just lovely. Grass - trees - pathways. The room was just a bit toward small but very useful for a couple. There was a major storm and incredible cold wind at arrival (Storm Beolo). Our in-room heat seemed off. They staff made us priority #1 and came to assist. They brought in a portable heater and repaired the room heater. Greatly appreciated. We were toasty warm very soon. There were a few younger staff members and each worked hard at smiling and assisting. The veterans seem to set a great example in training them. Good people - all. We had to get up and go and did not fit the set breakfast hours. So they let us in the dining room to eat the non-cooking items. Cereal and toast - example. This was kind. I am sure the full buffet is good... we saw the set up. It is not new - it has a lot of updates but does show some age. We would stay her again - no hesitation."
