They have a sign saying 4 star hotel. However, it is not even close to 4 stars. Staff were considerate. Pool , workout area were shared with community. Only used the pool once and the workout area twice during a 9 night stay. Feel the hotel is misrepresented on its website. We were there to hike and walk the wild atlantic way which was wonderful. However, we would not recommend this hotel for the price they are charging.

Decent, friendly, large hotel stay.

Nice large hotel, well maintained and clean, good greeting on entry. Good lifts. A very standard hotel of the period, and I've stayed in a lot of them. They're all pretty good, and all let down (in my opinion) with very average food. The choice is generally similar, the quality is always reasonable, and much of it is pre-prepared. Nothing wrong with that, but so much could be gained from a little flair in the kitchen. Didn't try breakfast here.

Poor

It was just ok..rooms could have been cleaner and there was meant to be a futon type bed for the third child. There was no additional bed in our room on arrival and when they brought us an additional bed it was a camp bed which collapsed when my child sat in it and fell apart. As a result the child slept on the mattress on the floor. Someone from the hotel was to contact me, but no one ever did. Safe to say I wouldn’t be staying here again.

Short but sweet

Perfect for a short stay since my room didn’t have a fridge. Attached gym was a big plus. Grocery store close by. Also other businesses within walking distance. Very friendly receptionists. Free parking also a big plus. Will need transportation to town center of Galway. This hotel is on the outskirts of Galway
