Solid spot for a night’s stay in Galway. Not too close to Galway things, but walkable.

Similar scenario as other hotels in Ireland. They are not family friendly. Swimming pools kick children out by 6 PM. Nightly rates are insanely expensive. I truly don’t understand the point of a Hotel swimming pools that don’t allow children to swim in the evening

They helped us stay to close to my dad who is in a wheelchair. Getting to the pool was a little confusing.

The carpets are old and the rooms are very outdated. No A/ C in the rooms, but they provide fans when we ask for. The staff was good.

Would not recommend staying at this property. I did find the staff extremely friendly and the first room we were given had been freshly painted and the odor was nauseating. The lobby furniture has stains all over it and the rooms are extremely dated.

Stayed with family

We stayed three nights including breakfast. The room was clean and comfortable. Provided tea and coffee bar in room. The bathroom amenities were lovely. Took advantage of the fitness area - used the pool, steamroom and sauna. Heavenly after a long day exploring. They provided towels and the area was very well kept. Breakfast was great - lots of choices and friendly staff. Entertainment in the evening was a nice way to end the day.
