Location, location, location.
Close to the excitement, but serene inside. Galway is famous for local music and nightlife, it is also a beautiful stop for nature lovers. Natural water scenes abound: the ocean, the bay, the roaring river Corrib, and every inch that connects them all. On a four star system they deserve five.

6/10 Good

Waiting our turn to check-in I witnessed a receptionist unable to resolve another customer's check-in issue. She was discounting everything the customer said instead of working with the customer. It was rather off-putting to those of us waiting to check-in. After we had checked in, we found the tv remote missing. I had to deal with this particular receptionist and she asked me what type of tv we had. I did not know and she said she would send someone up to take a look. That never happened. I had to ask a second receptionist to follow up and she promptly took care of the issue. The second night we asked for a jug of water which never happened. Also later there was no hot water for a shower. We were told they were looking into it, and would notify us when it was resolved, but we never received a courtesy call. Luckily, the next morning we had hot water. I think probably they are overwhelmed and have issues with that particular receptionist. The overall appearance left a bad impression. I would not stay there again.

Great location. Wonderful staff.
Nice hotel. We were an hour early and were lucky our room was ready. Rooms are small, no fans. Could use a shelf in bath for toiletries, no space. Updating hotel so had construction below us. Noise was minimal. Elevators stop between floors so you do need to take luggage up and down several steps.

Wonderful Western!
The Western was a wonderful experience. Great location and terrific staff. The concierge staff was helpful, efficient, and professional. The restaurant was some of the best food we had for the entire trip and the staff was friendly and organized. The bar staff was lovely and we enjoyed the live music. And the parking was easy- the valet staff was friendly and qualified. Overall, we would stay here again and would recommend it to our family and friends.

Charming, in a great location, a lot of road noise
The hotel was in a great location about a 10 minute walk from the city center. It had free onsite parking which was really convenient. The restaurant was charming and had good food. The breakfast was nice. I would have given it a 5 but the hotel did not have air conditioning so we had to leave our windows open at night to keep the room cool and there was a lot of traffic noise. We brought a sound machine that helped but it would have been difficult to sleep without it.

Ask for a room away from the street
This is a nice hotel, but be sure to ask for a room away from the main street. Otherwise you'll have a choice between having a quiet but stuffy room or a noisy but airy one.

Nice hotel with a good location. Our room on the second floor was right off the patio from the bar. It made it seem like 20 people were in our room at times. Very good location to Eyre Square and the ferries.
