Brilliant Hotel in Galway

I had a fantastic stay at the Harbour Hotel in Galway! The location is perfect, making it easy to explore the city and enjoy everything it has to offer. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always going above and beyond to ensure a great experience. The hotel itself is gorgeous and spotlessly clean, with a welcoming atmosphere. The beds were super comfy, making for a restful night's sleep. I’ll definitely be coming back—highly recommend!

excellent!!

I made a mistake with booking (a day early). I phoned the hotel directly and they couldn’t be more helpful and changed the date even though this wasn’t offered on Hotels.com. The hotel was lovely, as were the staff, its placed close to the centre and a few minutes walk. The breakfast was lovely too. Ill be staying again !!!

Amazing!

The staff were fantastic, the hotel was immaculately clean and a great location. A special shout out is required, due to a jet lag we kept strange hours the first few days in Galway, the late night team, in particular Jonathan and Tyrese provided outstanding customer service without batting an eye to our strange hours and are the reason we will without a doubt be returning to the Harbour Hotel. Thank you both, and look forward to visiting again soon!
