Top Connacht Hotel Reviews

Galway Bay Hotel

8/10 Good

"Had a nice stay. Good location with free parking. Nice large comfortable room. Only negative - was breakfast service was very slow, and a bit underwhelming. Tea and coffee should be the first thing served not the last. The staff were unmotivated to serve."

The Address Sligo

8/10 Good

"Our room had an amazing view. The room was not as clean as I have seen before (dust and dirt in corners of the room, shower and window were obvious) felt more like an apartment room than hotel but the Spa was amazing and the extra €30 per person was worth it."

Nox Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel and short walk to bars and restaurants"

Flannery's Hotel Galway

8/10 Good

"Good location with adequate car parking and easy to get about the city. No fridge unfortunately. Food and staff were very welcoming and efficient. Breakfast was good. Good value and I recommend. Tony."

Harbour Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely stay at the Harbour Hotel in Galway! It's in a quiet area by the water but a super short walk to the center of town and everything you'd want to do. The room was clean and well-maintained, and the bed was one of the comfiest and largest I've ever had in a European hotel room. My husband and I have a king sized bed at home in the US, so we usually expect a downgrade when we travel (which is fine), but not in this case! Happily surprised!"
