Property location is PERFECT! In the heart of Eyre Square and all the pubs, restaurants and shopping within walking distance. The Skeff Pub was awsome for any time of the day. Also visited the adjacent coffee shop NERO quite often for early morning and afternoon coffee. Great little spot!

Beautiful hotel with endless bars and public spaces. Clean and well appointed rooms with a slightly funky decor. Easy walk to sights, pubs, restaurants, salthill and we even walked to Pearse Stadium. Staff was professional and very friendly, especially Siobahn who was tremendously helpful.

The place was great. It’s definitely worth a younger crowd who doesn’t mind a lot of music because the place is bumping at night, but it was so cute. The decor was cute. The people were amazing there. I had a great time my mom not so much lol

Adjacent to Eyre square. Room had aircon, plenty of places nearby to eat and drink. A little difficult to find if you are driving. Traffic in the area is atrocious. You can just hear the bass from the pub band so, not too good if you are a light sleeper. Reception was great and showed me on Google maps how to get to the validated parking. Enjoyed my stay there.

We were above the bar which made it noisy at night. The earplugs they provided didn’t really cut it.

The Skeffington Arms is a super cool property. The only drawbacks are that one end of the restaurant smelled a little bit like a bathroom, the heater in our room would not shut off so I finally had to turn off the power to it, and it's a bit noisy late at night when music is playing in the restaurant. But overall, it was great, and we will stay there again next time we are in Galway.
