Top Shop Street Hotel Reviews

Nox Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel, friendly staff and good value for money. Restaurant was pretty good too! Would use the hotel again if in the area"

The Snug Townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"It’s right in the middle of the action on Quay Street. Earplugs are provided. But a $15 white noise machine blocked out all the noise. The front desk staff is the most helpful I’ve ever encountered."

Victoria Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in a perfect part of Galway to get around. And it’s actually very quiet around the hotel. I liked the hotel a lot. But here are a few things to consider: Within the hotel the walls are paper thin. The doors are heavy and slam shut. You can hear people in the next room talking and banging things around. There is no ac, which is okay because you can open the window but there is little airflow once you close the window. And it gets hot. I was better after I asked for a second fan. The bed was okay. A bit hard perhaps. But because you can’t separate the sheet from the comforter, it was hot sleeping. Very hot sleeping. I did like the hotel. And it was safe. The staff was good. Lots of choices for breakfast if you eat meat. If you are a vegetarian, go elsewhere for breakfast and dinner if you want something healthy. There are lots of places to eat and grab coffee around the hotel. I did have dinner once at the restaurant and I asked to add a tip and the person doubled the tip I put on there which I didn’t catch until later. But the staff for breakfast was excellent and the front desk staff were also wonderful."

Radisson RED Galway

10/10 Excellent

"We found the hotel clean, modern and well laid out. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful without exception. Our room was comfortable and served our purposes perfectly. The restaurants were so good we only ate in the hotel and didn't feel the need to eat elsewhere. Very happy customer S."

Eyre Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Location could not gave been better. Walking distance to all attractions. Great breakfast. If you are going to Galway, stay here"

Maldron Hotel Sandy Road Galway

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was very good, about a 25 minute walk into Eyre Square. Room was so spacious & beds were comfy."

The G Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at the G. The hotel is just outside of the city center, close enough to walk, easy enough to grab a car and be there in a few minutes. There is a small shopping center directly behind the hotel if you need anything. The staff is incredibly helpful with anything you need or just to have a chat. The lounge and restaurant are beautifully appointed with nice views of lake. The food is some of the best food we ate in London and Ireland. The rooms are spacious and clean and have great space to hang your clothes and put everything away so you feel at home. We would highly recommend staying at the G while in Galway!"

7 Cross Street

10/10 Excellent

"Great boutique hotel in the middle of the music scene. We loved it"

Harbour Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely stay at the Harbour Hotel in Galway! It's in a quiet area by the water but a super short walk to the center of town and everything you'd want to do. The room was clean and well-maintained, and the bed was one of the comfiest and largest I've ever had in a European hotel room. My husband and I have a king sized bed at home in the US, so we usually expect a downgrade when we travel (which is fine), but not in this case! Happily surprised!"
